Toots

[Feraud]

TOOTS Premieres on Sundance Channel Monday July 12th @ 8 p.m.

Between World War II and the end of the Eisenhower era, Manhattan's place to be and to be seen was Toots Shor's eatery. Here, New Yorkers could rub elbows with stellar figures from the worlds of sports, journalism and politicians (even the mob), including Joe DiMaggio, Frank Sinatra, Jackie Robinson, Humphrey Bogart and Jackie Gleason. Presiding over it all was Shor himself, a self-described Philadelphia Jewish "kid on the hustle" whose story is colorfully told in this "marvelous" (New York) documentary by granddaughter Kristi Jacobson.
