He finds a Zoltar machine, and he wishes to be big. After Zoltar tells him, "his wish is granted", Josh notices the machine is unplugged. He wakes up the next morning in an adult's body but he still has the same personality. With the help of his best friend, Billy, Josh learns how to act like a grown up.
But as he gets a girlfriend and a fun job, he doesn't want to be a kid again. Will Josh stay big or become a 13 year old boy again? You're only young once! Comedy Drama Fantasy Romance. Did you know Edit.
All of the parts of the movie that Mrs. Baskin is in before Josh transforms into an adult are scenes of her loving him and caring about him and wanting to protect him. Look at her squatting to get the perfect angle. She wakes him up for school. She does his laundry.
She makes breakfast for him. She cleans the house for him, and cleans his room. She never gets frustrated with him or yells at him, not even after she catches him awake past midnight on a school night talking to Billy on a walkie-talkie. She loves him so, so, so much. He pedals back home. She sees him, then begins to panic because she thinks a strange man has just entered her house unwanted, because a strange man has just entered her house unwanted. She starts to whimper.
He apologizes, runs out, wipes his feet, then runs back in. He keeps walking after her as she tries to escape. Go away! He starts spouting out a bunch of Josh-based facts his birthday, the name of his baseball team, things like that. She freaks out even more. He gets louder. She freaks out further still.
His volume matches her mania. All of this rushes into her head at once, this sudden realization that her son has possibly been kidnapped and, bleaker still, possibly subject to even worse, and so instead of being scared, she immediately flips her mode.
Where is my child?! Where is my son?! And that was a total nothing situation with very low stakes. They leave her to deal with her suddenly broken life. Even her husband is gone; he never gets shown in the movie again; I suspect he left the family because he was unable to deal with the stress of the situation and the ramifications that followed.
Much of this behavior was incorporated into the film. Filming the role was a treat for Moscow, especially the carnival scenes where Josh is transformed with a wish from a young kid into an adult. The scenes were shot at night. And it was a lot of cotton candy.
It was amazing. After the movie became a hit, Moscow went to Los Angeles to continue acting. More Galleries Remember '00s film 'Coyote Ugly'? Well this is what the cast looks like now! See inside the 'Home Alone' house 27 years later The cast of Grease: This is what they look like now!
