Fall, The
- (slight FF) 2006.
Young Alexandria is recovering from a broken arm in the hospital. Roy Walker tells an elaborate story about 6 men on a quest. She becomes embroiled in the tale and starts mixing fiction with reality, not realizing that Roy is using her to procure morphine for him. The hospital scenes with Catinca Untaru were shot in chronological order. Over the course of 6 weeks, she grew taller and her English improved like her character's. She lost her front baby teeth right before shooting began, so filming in sequence allowed for the continuity of the gap between her teeth to remain consistent.

(old age, age stasis) Frank Capra 1937, based on book by James Hilton. A plane crash delivers a group of people to the secluded land of Shangri-La. The founder claims to be hundreds of years old, preserved, like the other residents, by the magical properties of the paradise he has created. Hilton's Manchu princess - the young woman who really was 70 years old - has been split into Margo, who loves young Conway, and Jane Wyatt, authentically youthful, who has a romance with the elder brother. Torn between love and loyalty, they leave, taking Maria (Margo) with them. She denies being 70. After several days of grueling travel, she becomes exhausted and falls face down in the snow. When they turn her over, they discover that she has died...of extreme old age. Her departure from Shangri-la had restored Maria to her true age. She aged 50 years in a moment. The film was remade as a colorful, big-budget musical in 1973.

Major and the Minor, The
(kinda disguise ARed) 1942 Billy Wilder, based on play by Edward Childs Carpenter. Ginger Rogers: Susan Kathleen 'Sue' Applegate/Susu. "Is She A Kid - Or Is She Kidding?" A woman disguises herself as a child to save on train fare and is taken in charge by an army man who doesn't notice the truth. Susan is transformed (there is an elaborate scene of metamorphosis at a train station) from a failed woman into a wildly popular young girl; Susan's 'time-transference' allows her to become a subversive sprite. The idea that a little girl can disrupt a rigidly ordered military base on the eve of war is subversive. A hick girl who has blown all her prospects is able to infiltrate the military elite and overturn an arranged marriage. She takes Kirby out of this crippling environment, out of an enchanted land and the witch that would keep him there, even though she herself has magical powers that allow her to change appearance and age at will.

15-year-old Jassi feels that she's not good looking or happening. She always complains of being too young and not being able to do things that are done by her elder friends. Their dresses are jazzy, they are seen at all the in-places having fun, and they do all the things prohibited for a girl of Jassi's age! She feels bored confined in her private world. Jassi's only sympathizer is her fat, ever-loving friend Rocky. Monica, her smart and manipulative rival in school, is modern in her outlook and can make things happen her way. Due to some magic dust, Jassi's dream of growing big and beautiful comes true when time moves on overnight. She, her rival Monica (now a successful model), her friend Rocky, and the entire world become older by 10 years, hence giving Jassi ample opportunity to hit back. Jassi (Payal Rohatgi), a youngster with the body of a 25 year old, enters a world of adulthood not yet armed with the experiences of growing up. She has a figure to die for, while her age permits her to do all that she dreamt of. She goes to discotheques and clubs, hangs around with friends, and wears everything that she could only imagine earlier, but she still has the outlook of a teen.

(male AP's, male AR's) AKA "Nani". India 2004 musical movie, Telugu version of New. 8-year-old kid wants to be a big man to avoid reprimanding by his mother, who beat him for wetting the bed. He is about to commit suicide when a scientist gives him an injection that physically changes Naani into a 28-year-old youth (the injection increases a physical state by 20 years!). His mother lodges a complaint that her son is missing. Transformed into a robust youth, Naani (Mahesh Babu) joins a toy-manufacturing company. Mahesh looks innocent in looks and mannerisms. The daughter of the company owner Priya (Amisha Patel) falls in love with him. However, she looks elderly costarring with Mahesh. The way how she gets closer to the hero in the film is really laudable. By force, he reciprocates his love. Realizing his mother's affection for him, he requests the scientist to return his original shape. It will not work out completely. Naani will be a 28-year-old from dusk to dawn, and from dawn to dusk he will return to his childhood. Compromised with his fate, Naani gets married to Priya, whose father agrees to the match since Naani is an intelligent product designer. In the morning, he goes to school. With the dusk setting in, he is busy with company affairs. Close to the midnight, he becomes a husband. By early in the morning, he sleeps and before the Sun rises, he leaves his wife... to don the responsibilities of a boy till sunset. Meanwhile, Priya gets pregnant and his real identity gets disclosed. The dialogues are packed with double meaning. The story ends with a touch of sentiments which make you feel the pain of love when the last kiss of the heroine turns the man into a boy in a man's clothes. male APed

Palindromes
(kinda sorta like ARed/APed) 2004 Solondz. Aviva Victor is a 6-year-old black girl. She's also a series of 13- to 14-year-old white girls, an androgynous white boy, skinny, redheaded, a heavyset black woman and, ultimately, Jennifer Jason Leigh. Which is to say that Solondz has cast her with 7 different actors to encourage us to identify with her regardless of our race or body type-and, on an even deeper level, to suggest the immutability of personality. Features teen pregnancy (the character, no matter who plays her, gets pregnant at 13 while fooling around with a family friend and wants desperately to be a mother); abortion (which Aviva's mother, played by Ellen Barkin, forces her to have); child molestation (Aviva runs away from home and gets involved with a truck driver who has to be in his 40s); and the murder of abortion doctors. Leigh, who plays Aviva in the final section, gives the character a palpable sense of weariness at the end of the character's journey, yet you truly feel as if you're watching an insecure, 13-year-old girl - which Aviva is still supposed to be, because as the title suggests, she hasn't really changed.

Portrait of Jennie
- (ghost AP, height increase) 1948.
- The book was about a young struggling artist who meets a mysterious little girl playing by herself in a park. He befriends her and learns that her parents are high wire jugglers. She reappears a few more times, each time maturing by years, fulfilling a promise that the 10-year-old had made to 'hurry and grow up so they can be together always'. Basically, she seems disconnected from time. The artist's sketches of Jennie give him the break he needs to make his career, but before long Jennie is all he cares about. The book moves quickly to the inevitable ending. It allowed other people to see and interact with Jennie.
In the movie, Jennie is played at various ages by Jennifer Jones. Eben meets the adolescent Jennie Appleton, a kid playing alone in central park, who dresses and talks like a tot from 1910 and sings a ghostly tune from the beyond. He sketches the kid from memory and makes a substantial sale; but when he bumps into Jennie only a few days later, she appears to be several years older and taller. Jones successfully convinces us she's growing from pigtails to womanhood; her coquettishness and immaturity are engaging and her adult incarnation embodies romance like a goddess fallen to Earth. Suspecting he's crazy and that Jennie is a phantom, Eben confides only in Miss Spinney. When the adult Jennie disappears, Eben puts together clues from her stories and from Jennie's teacher (from 20 years before!) that launch him in a race against a fated death: he rushes to Cape Cod to keep a rendezvous with his ghostly lover on the rocks below a storm-tossed lighthouse. Eben finally finds himself on a rocky spit of land in an impossibly violent storm, making love to a woman who doesn't exist while a tidal wave (of reality?) bears down upon them to vanquish his fantasy forever.

Some kids took upon themselves the task, from the ages of about 11 to 17, of remaking the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, with all the same dialogue and scenes, and with the kids playing adults. Throughout the movie, the kids change ages and sizes. They go from pre-teen to teen and back. Their hair grows long and gets short again within one love scene. Their voices change. They had to explain why they spent 7 years of their lives dressing up in hats and building paper mache caves and memorizing an archaeology movie.
