Tom Hanks Talks About the Trickiest Part of Playing a Child

Interviewer: Alright Tom, first of all congratulations on “Big” Very funny movie. Also, very heartwarming, what’s the trickiest part about playing a kid? Tom Hanks: Maintaining that level of innocence that is kind of communicated through cluelessness and not really knowing what everyone is talking about and not really knowing what is going on when all these people are getting amped up about things. There was a requirement that I had to kind of strip away an awful lot of worldly knowledge and an awful lot of worldly cares and just kind of show up and pretend to be twelve, thirteen years old again and when you read the paper and you need three cups of coffee to get going in the morning and you realize that you’re tired and you want to sleep it’s hard to keep that in perspective but it was one of the prerequisites of making the movie and honestly that was the toughest daily task that I faced.
