The Toy (1982)
A wealthy white father (Jackie Gleason) “purchases” an African American man (Richard Pryor) for his young son to be his company and “toy” in The Toy.

Big (1988)
Like Back to the Future, Big would most certainly be made today, with one key narrative detail omitted. Specifically, the awkward connection between Tom Hanks’ Josh Baskin (a 12-year-old trapped in an adult’s body) and Elizabeth Perkins’ Susan (a full-fledged adult).
