Description:
At a carnival, young Josh Baskin (Hanks) wishes he was big ? only to awake the next morning and discover he is! With the help of his friend Billy, Josh lands a job at a toy company. But the more he experiences being an adult, the more Josh longs for the simple joys of childhood.
Amazon.com essential video:
A perfect marriage of novel but incisive writing, acting, and direction, Big is the story of a 12-year-old boy who wishes he were older, and wakes up one morning as a 30-year-old man (Tom Hanks). The script by Gary Ross (Dave) and Anne Spielberg finds some unexpected ways of attacking obvious issues of sex, work, and childhood friendships, and in all of these things the accent is on classy humor and great sensitivity. Hanks is remarkable in the lead, at times hilarious (reacting to caviar just as a 12-year-old would) and at others deeply tender. Penny Marshall became a first-rate filmmaker with this 1988 work. --Tom Keogh

Hanks is perfect, playing the part with body language that never lets the audience forget ... Read More

Every child ever born on this earth, at some point in his/her life, wants to experience life as a grown-up before their time. Well, this comical little film shows what would happen if one of those children were to get their wish.
For a short synopsis, this film tells the story of a 13-year old boy, Josh, who loses the "girl of his dreams" due to his short stature and lack of adult characteristics (such as driving). So, in a moment of self-pity, Josh makes a wish on a carnival game machine ... Read More

What can I say, this movie is a classic! I bought it for my husband as an early Christmas gift, and he couldn't be happier. The scene in FAO Schwartz with the giant piano is great. We love it.

I am very disappointed in this DVD. The image on my 26" HD TV appears to be overlaid by a fine black mesh. I've never had this occur watching any other DVDs. BUYERS BEWARE!
