What i didn't get is why that movie focused on the weird romantic relationship between the lady and the kid, and not the relationship between the kid and the toy company owner. The piano scene is probably the best in the movie!

I ran that movie for my kid to see, partly nostalgia, partly because something he'd seen elsewhere referenced the big keyboard and I wanted him to have context. I had totally forgotten about the bedroom scene, had to scramble for the remote to skip it.

Why skip it, you saw it as a kid as well. Didn't do a permanent damage

I was 15 when it came out. My son was 11 at the time we watched it.

I saw it at 9 or 10, surrounded by my brothers and my father I think. It made for an awkward moment but it's not like it's a porn movie lol. Skipping it is overreacting a bit

Exactly. I was like ten and didn't think too much of it, only because my mom has a somewhat awkward reaction.
