The Cobbler
99 min | 2014
THE COBBLER is a warm and enchanting comedy that plays to the strengths of Adam Sandler’s most commercial successes (Click, Grown Ups, 50 First Dates and Just Go With It). Sandler plays a 4th
generation shoemaker who discovers a magical sewing machine in his father’s basement that allows him to transform into other people by wearing their shoes. Similar in theme to Tom Hank’s Big, Trading Places and 13 Going On 30, THE COBBLER provides the perfect vehicle for Sandler to exhibit his endearing and selfless boyish charm, taking him on a comedic voyage of
self-discovery and learning the importance of family via the magic of
“walking a mile in another man’s shoes.” A journey that results not only in changing his world, but the world around him.
