Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Cobbler is a 2014 comedy-drama written and directed by Tom McCarthy and starring Adam Sandler, Melonie Diaz, Method Man, Steve Buscemi, Ellen Barkin, Dan Stevens, and Dustin Hoffman.Max Simpkin (Sandler) is a lonely, schlubby cobbler in his 40s who lives with his mother while continuing to run the shoe repair business founded by his family decades ago. One day, after his electronic stitching machine breaks down, Max unearths a manual stitching device once owned by his now-absent father (Hoffman), and after repairing the shoes discovers something remarkable: when he wears shoes repaired with the device, he transforms into the shoe's owners.Energized by his discovery, Max finds himself in a series of adventures as he tries out the lives of his customers, stages a make-believe reunion between his mother and father, and fights back against a gentrification campaign in his neighborhood led by corrupt businesswoman Elaine Greenawalt (Barkin). Eventually, he discovers he is a part of a world much bigger than he ever imagined.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Actor Allusion: When Max gets home from work and opens his fridge to pick a beverage, he has two options: a beer or a Yoohoo. The Yoohoo is a nod to Adam Sandler's film Big Daddy (1999) when he explains to the kids on the playground "Ya know what's good? Yoohoo with a bit of rum." | |

| The Cobbler / int_953a8ee8 | comment |
Age Cut: An interesting version. The opening A Minor Kidroduction ends with little Max watching his father working the stitching machine that produces a loud repetitive sound. Then the scene dissolves into adult Max sitting on a train while the sound the car produces on the tracks matches the sound of the stitching machine. | |
