@everybittexas: Ever wonder what a Hollywood legend was like before he became a global icon? 🎬✨ Back in 1988, the "Big" star himself, Tom Hanks, sat down right here in Austin with KVUE-TV’s own Roy Faires. Long before the Oscars and the blockbuster hits we all know today, this rare footage captures a young Hanks diving deep into the challenges of playing a kid in a man’s body and what it was really like working with director Penny Marshall. For those of us who remember the 80s in Central Texas, Roy Faires was our go-to for all things entertainment. Seeing this unedited interview feels like a total time capsule of Texas broadcasting history! 🤠📺 It’s amazing to see how much has changed in the film industry, yet how Tom’s genuine charm has stayed exactly the same. We love seeing these hidden gems from the Texas Archive of the Moving Image that remind us of our state's cool connection to cinema history. What is your absolute favorite Tom Hanks movie of all time? Is it a classic like "Big," or something more recent? Let’s hear your picks in the comments! 👇 #TexasHistory #TomHanks #AustinTX #KVUE #80sNostalgia #TexasArchive #BigMovie #HollywoodInTexas #KeepAustinWeird #TexasFilm
