Synopses
Mrs. Doubtfire - Struggling actor Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) can’t keep a job. And, according to his wife (Sally Field) he can’t keep his family, either! But when a judge says Daniel can only visit his kids once a week, the inventive dad becomes Mrs. Doubtfire – the prefect, plump, no-nonsense nanny – to his own children!

BIG - All Josh Baskin (Tom Hanks) wants is to be big. But when his wish is granted beyond his wildest dreams, Josh finds a new face in the mirror… his own, at age 30. Now, aided only by his boisterous best friend, he’ll have to keep the secret of his true age as he tries to fill his own oversized shoes. But as his innocent charms help him rise to the top of the adult world, Josh will face the biggest decision of his life – return to his own age, or remain big forever!
