Tom Cruise as a tough superman is a joke to begin with.
Still: It is nothing new. Allan Ladd was a little guy who had to stand on a box to kiss the girl too.
Like when Cruise was married to Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman, and they had to wear flats because of being next to the little guy.
Cruise is nothing but a pretty face which all 3 of his wives found out after they married him. Short in the legs light in the shorts.
I think you meant “light in the loafers.”
