DVD Synopsis
Matthew Bright directs the romantic comedy Tiptoes, written by Bill Weiner. Rolfe (Gary Oldman) is a dwarf, but his brother Steven (Matthew McConaughey) is not. When Steven's wife, Carol (Kate Beckinsale), gets pregnant, she worries about the baby being born a dwarf. She also ends up falling for Rolfe, much to her surprise. Also starring Peter Dinklage and Patricia Arquette. After appearing at film festivals in Europe, Tiptoes made its U.S. premiere at Sundance Film Festival in 2004. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide
A woman finds herself asking the perennial question "Does size matter?" when she discovers her husband's family are all "little people" in this eccentric comedy, which gets a straightforward DVD release. Tiptoes has been given a letterboxed transfer to disc in the widescreen aspect ratio of 1.85:1, which has been enhanced for anamorphic playback on 16 x 9 monitors. The English-language audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital 5.1, with optional subtitles in English but no multiple language options. Trailers for other Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment releases have been included as a bonus. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Interesting movie about little people. Not a family movie, yet a "Hallmark style" movie for adults. Although my prefernce is for romantic comdies, I found this movie quite enjoyable and just the right length.
