Title: Great Scenes with Kids
Post by: clerkguy23 on June 22, 2012, 02:40:49 PM
Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place...

I'm doing an acting workshop for kids and I need some good movie scenes for them to work on. preferably ones with just two kids. The kids are all different ages from 8-18, but I only have a few scenes for the younger ones. Do any of you have any suggestions? They don't necessarily have to be kid movies, just ones featuring kids.

I'm struggling to think of any with two kids...

What about the flashback scene from It's a Wonderful Life with George, Mary and Violet in the drug store?

Something from ET? Addams Family (Reunion)? The Goonies? Harry Potter? Holes? Spy Kids? Hook? I Am Sam? The Parent Trap?

Some of those may be a bit old... Most if not all the scripts can be had at script-o-rama.

Where are you teaching?

Ghostboy has a great film with two young children as the leads.  Message him, he could probably give you some insights.  He had some during the Q & A that took place after his film.

You could probably get some good scenes out of Monster House and Super 8.
