100 Things We Learned from "Tootsie"


I'm beginning a list here on 100 things we've learned from watching Tootsie:

1. A 30-second tomato commercial can go half a day over shooting because the actor playing said tomato won't sit down.

2. Nobody will hire Michael Dorsey.

3. Sitting down while you're playing a tomato isn't logical.

4. People don't want to see a play about two people moving back to Love Canal.

5. Michael's agent can't even get him commercials.

6. Julie can throw a drink in Michael's face for using a pick-up line she told "Dorothy" she wished a man would say to her.

7. Sandy doesn't take s*?# from friends, only from lovers.

8. Yes, Jeff knows about Michael dressing like Dorothy.

9. Southwest General has filmed their scenes live before because their producer is such a klutz.

10. Moving back home is the solution to getting rejected for a part in a soap.
