Summary

Our first return to the VHS vaults is the 1988 classic Big: After a wish from a possessed fortuneteller turns a 12-year-old schoolboy into a 30-year-old man, he is forced to hide in New York City alone.

A chance encounter with the owner of a toy company leads to an unlikely high paying job and an illegal sexual relationship with an adult coworker. However, the pressure of living as an adult and the torment of his mother's grief over her missing son begin to overwhelm him, and he longs to return to his simple, former life as a boy.
