CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Josh (Tom Hanks) and his boss (Robert Loggia) play a huge electronic piano, to the delight of shoppers.
FILM 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 fortunetelling 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 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 property into a Broadway musical.

The most heart breaking thing about this scene is that kids today will never get to experience big toy stores like this one or toys r us. I remember how great it was to run into toys r us and just be in heaven. The internet killed it
And some people like my self are too lazy to look up toys on the internet so that's when the benefit of just walking in was good for me to see what toys I liked
Not that the internet killed it, just my parents never took me there because they were too busy:(
I used to go to toys r us a few times, some of my old toys are from there but most of them were from target
sad
I love toy r us and stuff and always will but things like Amazon have killed that experience bc in the big toy shops there would be toys you can play with without buying and I barely went to them mainly coz they only that popular in us and stuff and ye u get it
What melts my heart about this scene is the innocence. The older gentleman is attempting to talk business and notices Tom Hanks’ character embracing fun. They both just take a minute from reality and enjoy life at its finest. No judgment, no negativity, just two grown men embracing youth and having the best time.
Ikr
But this is such an important message isn't it? No matter how old we get, we must NEVER forget to embrace fun and enjoy living!
Always be able to be a child again, even if for a moment.
@@777dobbin777 Being a kid means only one thing. Being immersed in the moment.
They’re the only two in the company that love to play with toys
Alongside this scene just being pure joy on film. I love how it's not perfect, there are tons of misteps and it only adds to the scene and makes it more infectiously memorable.
I agree, the fact that there are missteps and mistakes make it that much better.
@@hgbitner8486 They probably did many takes and this was the best one. On a sidenote, I watched this movie as a kid and loved the song they played here. Years later my school started up a music class and it had a piano in it, so l told my friend who had just began piano lessons to try to learn this song from his teacher, teach it to me, and then we could use it to get girls. lol To my shock he learned it in a single weekend, then taught it to me, and the 2 of used play it every day in music class and left the girls absolutely stunned. Good times. Lmao
Fully agree. A lot of movies (especially nowadays) put too much weight on being "perfect". In real life, people stutter, people trip, people forget the simplest things, and people make mistakes on the piano. Those notes that light up by accident don't "ruin" the scene, they make it more real and more human-as if you were actually witnessing it in person. Authenticity and candidness at their finest.
@@KoolKeithProductions
I believe I read somewhere that they actually did this scene in one take!
@@ob2kenobi388 it can't be possible
The song is "Heart & Soul" if anyone's wondering.
thanks bud
youre a life saver for this thank u so much
thanks
I thought it was chopsticks because at 1:28 i heard someone say “Chopsticks” and then they played the piano piece chopsticks
Edit:it was at 1:25 not 1:28
By who
The best thing is, the two actors actually did this. There were doubles on hand just in case, but luckily they weren’t needed. Kudos to Tom Hanks and Robert Loggia for being awesome on the floor piano.
Thanks, master Skywalker, I didn't knew that!
you even hear, that there are errors in it - makes it better
ARE THOSE THE REAL KEYS TO PLAY THOSE SONGS ? OR WAS IT JUST LIKE A, STEP ON ANY KEY, AND WE'LL JUST ADD THE MUSIC ?
@@sergiobecerrajr4528 it was real lol
@@Niviari23 SERIOUSLY??? COOL !
Moral of the story your never too old to do what you love
@Jamison Elms That's right. Plus, you are never too old to cry out of sadness.
Another one is "You're never too old to learn when to use "your" and when to use "you're" ".
"Ainda não és tão velho pra fazer o que gosta."
which in tom hanks case, is apparently kids
So true!!
Funny what sticks with you over the years. Still remember this scene as a kid and it still puts a smile on my face at 37 years young.
its so cool how you say young instead of old! i respect that
@@doge8606 ✌️
Look up Thomas Huert Edward Catt.
That part!
Take me back, please!!!! Being a child growing up in the 90’s was so much easier!!!
What I think makes this scene truly transcendent and timeless is how authentic it is. You can see (especially tom’s face) how focus they are on the steps, the tiny off step chords in the back that do not detract, but add to its delight, specifically when Tom hits the wrong note with his right foot in “chopsticks” and then corrects it. It’s so genuine it hurts. You can’t help but watch them with a big fat smile on your face
Also the humming you can hear, even before they really go for the humming/half grunting is delightful! The way they prep themselves for the heart and soul piece, the softness of it all until chopsticks, I especially love the Genuine bit of actor appreciation when they meet in the middle mid climax of heart and soul before you can hear Tom? Humming, just lovely!
Makes you wonder if they did more takes until they got it perfect and if the editor decided the not perfect take was better.
@@RandomStuff-he7lu I don´t think they ever took it perfect. And by the way, I am not naive as the rest of the people here, they adapted the music to the steps afterwards and that was it.
it’s fake. They are playing the complete wrong notes
I love this movie. Taught me as a kid to enjoy being a kid, and now as a adult it has taught to me to always listen to the kid inside.
I am the same way
Well maybe don’t always listen maybe 90% child
Nuff said 🙏🏼
I never had a childhood. My childhood was either on a blocky planet or a Lego simulator.
Very well put
The old man was agile. That's for sure.
I loved his steps. You can tell he is a dancer. So much more graceful than Tom was.
@@frndofbear I think it was supposed to be the point. Robert Loggia was smooth and easy, Tom was more erratic because he wasn't a 35 year old man. He was a 13 year old boy
Feech LaManna
@@John.Spandli OMG I never put them together. Thanks for pointing this out!!!
Frank Lopez from Scarface
One of the most iconic scenes in cinema history. 🙌 Anyone else agree?
Agreeed
100%. I didn't even remember the name of the movie or who the actors were but this scene was easy to find again, I'm happy I did. it's a very pure moment!
I was thinking about this scene randomly yesterday, and sure enough it pops into my TH-cam suggestion feed. Google analytics can read my mind now.
Absolutely!
@@nottiredofwinning3736 It's happened to me too. It's scary.
Robert Loggia. He was only 58 here.
What a cool cat. RIP Bob❤
That's one way to get a job promotion
The other way is to be a good looking broad.
You know they probably got one or two of those pianos sold that day, hence the way to get a promotion.
Артём Лобов -on your hands and knees.
Clayton Baker t
Clayton Baker What do you guys think The boss thought when Tom just suddenly dissapeared? I always worried that he might get mad and worried. He promoted him after all and seemed to really like him.
This scene is so nostalgic. My parents had this on VHS downstairs in my den for years.
I still have it on vhs
StarCrossedPimp 1:27 can someone please tell me from what song this is?
StarCrossedPimp
I still have it on VHS out at my cottage, I usually watch it once a year when summer rolls around
It's "heart and soul"
I love how Tom Hanks just forgets his bag of stuff at the end.
Dose he gets it back yes or no
It is so funny that when I watched this movie as a young kid and saw this scene I got so memorised by the sound of the piano, and I wanted to start learning how to play. I saved up for an upright piano, got some lessons and am currently undertaking VCE music. Unreal how such a small, heart warming, comedic scene kinda changed my life. 😂
Thats the power of movies man, they are the modern myths.
Lol I got a piano on marketplace and this is the first song I tried playing. No experience or lessons but I know parts of this by ear. I'll be taking lessons.
They don't make movies like this one anymore!!
HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
jesus dude you got me.
Scotty St Cloud Dont forget that Tom convincing his friend that its really him by telling him detailed information about their relationship would never work today. It would either end with the kid running away or Tom getting arrested.
Scotty St Cloud he was 13
Shazam is coming to prove you all wrong
what was the song name?
RIP Robert Loggia. You are loved and you will be missed.
Victor Kong He's the one who acted in Independence Day and Independence Day Resurgence and they credited Dedicated to the Memory of Robert Loggia.
Dicaprio sucks - sorry
:( :( :'(
Groundhog Day 1993 is AWESOME! He’s awesome one of the best actors
How did he die but Judd Hirsch has not aged between those two movies?
One of my favourite scenes of any movie
Tom Hanks - what a legend
One of the most iconic movie scenes of all time in my humble opinion
One of the best movies of all time.
Nah, "Groundhog Day" (193) is still a better movie.... ;)
Max Walker This movie has a kind of non-cheesy wholesome quality. Few have achieved that without nostalgia.
Groundhog Day 1993 is AWESOME! Why are you obsessed with groundhog day
Groundhog Day 1993 is AWESOME! He said one of the best lol wtf...
1:27 can someone please tell me from what song this is?
I just heard that Robert Loggia died.
So I came here to watch this awesome scene.
R.I.P. Robert Loggia.
January 3, 1930 - December 4, 2015
One of the most magical scenes in any movie - miss Robert Loggia - what an actor.
Over 30 years old and STILL brings a smile. A true classic.
Without a doubt, the best scene in the film. This can never been redone, especially since F.A.O. Swartz closed earlier this year. What a shame too as this was a one-of-a kind store.
Oh really? FAO Swartz is closed for good now?
Awww man... I've always wanted to visit that store ever since I saw this movie for the first time. Now it's not possible. The kid in me is very sad 😭😭😭
Hey you, So much text
🥺 I always wanted to visit this place and try the piano
It did reopen at rock center but with no piano
I think one of the great things about this movie is that Josh's child-like approach to everything reminded Mr. Macmillan of why he started a toy company in the first place - to bring joy and fun into the world... not just to make money. Ultimately, his experience as an adult changed not only his & Susan's lives, but Macmillan's as well.
I’m Japanese.
I love 80’s and 90’s comedy movies of U.S.
We figured they'd come in style in Japan in about 30 years.
shhhh media says you aren't suppose to like those movies they were all made for white america. At least I've been told.
@@jdee8243 huh??
Simple light hearted moments like this are always the most memorable
Ah this warms my heart
I read that originally him & Hanks were going to be put aside for stand-ins. They saw 2 guys dressed just like them & they were just going to shoot the scene w/just the feet. Loggia & Hanks thought that was stupid & told the guys to take a hike. They did the dance, full figure view & all in one take.
Sarah Swomley one take ? Seems unlikely
@@lewiscarter1229
I think he means they shot the scene without any breaks. They obviously had practise but they very well could have done the full scene in one take
That story's bullshit. There's even a special feature on the dvd where they talk about how long they rehearsed the piano dance for. It was considered to be one of the major scenes of the movie and they practiced for weeks for just this one scene.
@@Wildeheart79 It annoys me when people don't fact-check outlandish anecdotes like the OP's...
They did it all in one take. Tom Hanks said on the Jonathon Ross show. And he can still do it to this day.
One of the most classic movies ever! THIS was the world I loved! No Cell Phones, No Social Media...JUST being free and having fun! That's the world sadly many kids will never know! RIP Robert Loggia ☹ and John Heard (Home Alone Dad) Thank you! And thank you Tom Hanks for making my childhood awesome!!
Gee, this scene is so wholesome, makes me want to learn piano to do this someday
its what inspired me, so I definitely feel that
Do it Gerardo! Playing a musical instrument is soooooooooo satisfying ;)
I’m doing it as I’m typing this. Learned both songs in less than an hr. You can do it bro 😎
This scene in itself deserves an award, for both acting and writing. It’s just so perfectly done, the choreography alone is amazing, but also the meaning behind it all is simply beautiful.
Tom Hanks ganhou um Oscar nesse filme além do Globo de Ouro, e prêmio de melhor roteiro original
One of the most memorable scenes of Robert Loggia's entire career. God rest his soul.
Cat. T. Hewert Edward Cat.
Tom Hanks as well ...
I love the fact that they did this for real. And if you watch, you'll even see/hear the mistakes, and that is what makes this the best scene!
They didn’t actually. They are playing the complete wrong notes. Just tried it on my piano.
I can’t watch this without smiling from ear to ear.
Same here. And wonder if you can actually get one.
The songs are Heart And Soul, Chopstics
thank you so much you amazing person
Thank you
Thank you very much !
THANKS
Puts a smile on my face every time I watch this scene!
One of the iconics scenes in the cinema, perfect.
As a kid I thought this scene was cool. As an adult I freaking Love 💕 it....
As a kid I didn’t care for it. As an adult I don’t care for it.
There were no phone with cameras back then. People were simply watching two adults playing piano in a kids' store and not a single of them holding their phones up. Classic :')
Sad. That would've went viral.
@Moist Gnome, hi. I happened to be on TH-cam rn :v
You seriously don't think that this movie scene was shot on a phone camera, now, do you?
Extremely sorry. I'm not usually good at taking jokes.
Okay boomer
Really? So much text
Such a beautiful scene when you think about it
This scene is everything right about watching a movie. Its spontaneous. For 2-3 hours of your life you indulged in a different world and in the end your back out. Sells that cinema experience
Such a versatile actor, incredible in Scarface, Big, The Sopranaos, Lost Highway and many, many more. He could play a kindly grandpa or a gangster without skipping a beat. One of those actors who everyone could see was really a nice guy, but he was such a good actor if he played a bad guy, you still believed it. One thing is certain he won't be forgotten for a long time, least of all that when Tom Hanks passes away, they'll show this clip for him too and the great Robert Loggia's name will be mentioned in the news once again. 'Tom Hanks will always be fondly remembered for this classic scene from 1988's Big, acting alongside the legendary Robert Loggia'.
is he Fich Lamamma??
Many years ago, I saw him get very angry. He was on a TV show called "Mancuso FBI." Under US federal law, permission must be obtained to use the words Federal Bureau of Investigation, or the letters "FBI." The crew played a joke on him. The had a couple of actors play FBI agents coming to arrest him for violating that law . He was getting so angry because he was being "arrested" when the producers should of gotten clearance for the use of those. He calmed down once he realized it was a joke.
@@GeekBoy03"Under US federal law, permission must be obtained to use the words Federal Bureau of Investigation, or the letters 'FBI.'"
You're so full of crap, your eyes are brown.
One of the most iconic scenes in cinematic history.
Hanks is legendary.
R.i.P. sir Robert Loggia, another cinema icon.
Here we go, So much text
One of the best movie scenes of all time, ver. Thanks for uploading! Who's watching un 2022?
I watched this with my pops and Grandpa back in the 80’s and just watched it with my son and dad just gives me suck a great feeling! They really don’t make them like this anymore!!
Alalallalla So much text
This , to me, is the finest skit ever in the movies. I watch “Big” many times just for this duet.
Same it’s one of the best scenes in cinematic history 😊
Fun fact: Paula Abdul choreographed this scene, she's a genius!!
RIP Penny Marshall and Robert Loggia, I want to thank both of you and Tom Hanks for coming together and making this classic
If they remade this iconic movie I would love to see Tom Hanks play the role of Mr. MacMillan, his boss. To see Tom do this again but with someone else playing Josh. I believe I was once in that FAO Schwarz location. Way back years ago and I just remember wondering how this is a toy store and not just a place to have fun. Truly one of the best places to be as a kid.
Robert Loggia was a real sport to pull this off.
''And then everyone clapped!'' Nobody is ever going to believe Loggia's character when he tells this story at dinner parties.
Nothing, So much text
@@djdany1969 The hell's your problem, mate?
All Feech's stories were bullshit
It's one of Feech LaManna's impermeable stories.
This never gets old
This is one of my favorite Tom Hanks movies, (besides the terminal) that really made my heart ache. It's such an emotionally impactful movie. Absolutely beautiful.
RIP Penny Marshall who directed this movie.
God bless Her.
She put her soul on it and it shows.
I didn't even know she passed.
@@islandbee she passed almost 3 years ago.
1943 - 2018
They have an entire department in the company called "Computers"
Good ole days...
basically another word for "clerical" or "logistics" as back then it was the only thing computers did in a company
Probably the best film about a boy become a grown up man in my book
When I was a child (and as the youngest) my dad and sisters used to play this on the piano. Immediately after watching this movie a decade later, I was in tears just from the nostalgic sound. ❤️
What is the song called?
@@BallroomDancer28 Heart and Soul, or Play that song by Train
By God, it's Robert Loggia.
"R" as is in, Robert Loggia.
+Max Power frank lopez!
+Alex Dankowski O as in, oh my god, it's Robert Loggia
E as in, everybody loves Robert loggia
Tim, look over there it's Robert Loggia
That scene must've been hard to practice.
take 138. and tom? don't f*ck up this time.
In reality they had actually prepped stunt doubles to preform the scene, so Tom and Robbert made it their goal to preform perfectly without them
Yeah, but they probably kept on practicing until they got it right.
Paula Abdul choreograph this scene
Either the audio is recorded later, or the instrument only excepts 4 key presses at one time, because they hit many mistake keys but it still sounds correct
I'm so proud I have a son to do this with. Not yet he's learning.
This is my favorite scene ever with Robert Loggia.
That remains one of the best scenes in any movie...ever. Absolute brilliance.
This scene is so iconic.
It's amazing to me how "Heart and Soul" always seems to bring musicians together in beautiful ways. It's that one song that, sure, amateurs will show off when they don't know much. But it's also that song that's better with a duo and just seeing the connection between that duo, regardless of their skill. This scene is an example of that. But there's also a scene from the Tim Minchin series "Upright" that shows the connection between two opposite people even better. The song has a very proper title. It's lovely way to connect opposing forces in any way possible. ❤
A LEGENDARY scene and a LEGENDARY movie in cinema history, will never be forgotten♥️
RIP Penny Marshall. Thank you for your work, Tom Hanks' career and his best movie ever.
Remembered this scene was so wholesome watching it in the cinema with my dad.
One of my favorite movies scene all of time. I was kid, about 7y or 8y when a saw this for first time and I thought it was amazing. now, 30y later, this part of "Big" makes me goosebumps, everytime. thanks, Robert Loggia and Tom Hanks you guys made me happy.
My dad showed this movie to me at 18, 22 now and just rewatched with my girlfriend! Thanks pops! Love ya!
❤
Also did u find him?
This is by far my favorite scene from any movie ever!

How’s your footwork?
@@edmontonboy99 rip
This scene always reminds me when I drew a huge crowd at Guitar Center one day. I sat at one of the pianos and played My Heart Will Go On and dozens of people stood there for 5 minutes as I played. I felt real nervous having all those people watch me but I was just having fun 😊🎹
Fake.
__ Look at his channel
Whaaaaat? SO MUCH TEEEEEXT
RIP Robert Loggia
What a great childhood we had back in the 80's. We were so lucky and didn't even know it.
I consistently come back to rewatch this over and over. I can count on one hand how many scenes from movies just bring me pure joy
This is and probably will always be the best scene from this movie
Moral of the story your never too old to do what you love
I love this movie. Taught me as a kid to enjoy being a kid, and now as a adult it has taught to me to always listen to the kid inside.
Attention to detail that mr. Loggia and mr. Hank's, was fantastic and done great. Thankyou so very much mr. Robert loggia, for your amazing acting talent's thankyou sir. Rest in heavenly peace.
I don't know why, this happy and beautiful scene makes me cry....
This brings a tear to my eye. Reminds me of my childhood. Damn good movie.
Me too
God, just watching this again brings back memories and I found myself smiling so hard by the end of the clip.
Rest in Peace Robert Loggia. Hell of an actor
The definition of "delightful." Never fails to put a smile on my face.
One of the Greatest scenes to ever put in cinema.
RIP Penny Marshall and Robert Loggia.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This looks so spontaneous and I would really love to know how long they rehearsed that scene and just how many takes it took to actually get it right.
These days they would have filmed each of them doing it separately, filmed the Extras separately and them just synced them up in editing.
bigmichaelcollins10 sounds about right 😂 unfortunately
They did it all in one take, it was originally just going to be some random extras doing it but then the actors told them to step aside and knocked it out in one take.
"After Loggia and Hanks spent months at home practicing the routine on huge cardboard piano keys, the two showed up for shooting and noticed dancers on standby. Motivated by the perceived slight, Loggia remembered telling the stunt men to “take a hike,” and performing the sequence with Hanks in “just about one take.”"
@@mindtricky Thanks for that. Still like to watch that Movie, it still stands up today. :-)
So much text, and it's really when i say you I'TS SO MUCH TEXT
This reminds me of childhood so much, we had it on VHS
Such an iconic scene in film history
Beautiful gimbals with three part harmony of a piano
One of my favourite scene ever... it takes me away, dreaming, switching off for everyday stress and responsabilities... I come back to reality feeling stronger and ready for the world. Love you Tom Hanks.
makes me smile everytime i watch this reminds me when i was a kid!!
Love this movie so much! Saw it at school for the 1st time just was smiling the whole time
we all have an inner child to play with, listen to yours, play with them ♡
I love the guy that goes "fantastic!"
I miss Robert L, seeing this right after Lost Highway is epic, he played bad guys so well, but this showed a lovable side, great actor, great movie
He forgot his shop bag at the end!
Jasmine Elsa yeah that the he threw away
Tom Hanks has made some of the best movies in my lifetime!
It's nuggets of movie magic like this that you just don't find anymore in modern movies.
Ah, so *this* is why everyone plays Heart and Soul when they sit in front of a piano.
