Reasons they need to see it: This was one of my favourite movies as a kid — I loved Diane Lane’s quirky maternal instincts, Brian Kerwin’s funny dad antics, and most of all, Robin Williams’s ability to convey the beautifully innocent heart of a child. Your kids are going to love spending time with Jack, a boy who may look a bit different, but is really just a normal 10-year-old boy who wants to have friends and be loved like everyone else.
What to look out for: It gets a bit upsetting when Jack gets sick in the middle of the movie, and that nightclub scene between Jack and a young Fran Drescher gets a little risqué and could raise some interesting questions.
