Movie Description:

More than anything else, 13-year old New Jerseyite Josh (David Moscow) wants to be "big". That's the wish he makes at an odd-looking amusement pier fortune-telling machine. The next morning, Josh wakes up--only to discover that he's grown to manhood overnight! (At this point, the part is taken over by Tom Hanks.) Still a 13-year-old mentally and emotionally, Josh decides to hide out in New York City until he can figure out what to do next. He lucks into a job with a major toy company run by kid-at-heart McMillan (Robert Loggia). By cannily bringing a child's-eye view to McMillan's business, Josh rises to the top--and in the process, he falls in love with fellow employee Susan (Elizabeth Perkins). But he's still a kid, and he'd like to go back to his own world and own body. Written by Gary Ross and Anne Spielberg, "Big" proved a crucial success for budding director Penny Marshall, who'd work harmoniously with Hanks again on the radically different "A League of Their Own". The cinematography was by Barry Sonenfeld, who went on to become a director himself with "The Addams Family". That "Big" was heavily reliant upon the input of Tom Hanks and Penny Marshall was proven by the failed attempt to turn the film into a Broadway musical.
