Movie Description A washed-up child star runs a struggling talent agency for children. When his pocket is picked by a precocious little girl she fast-talks her way out of it, and he realizes he has finally made the discovery that could save his business - that is, if he can control his little superstar.
Synopsis Michael J. Fox makes fun of his boyish persona in this warm-hearted comedy.
Former child star Mikey finds his life isn't as good as it once was. Now he works as an agent for kid actors. His talent firm, however, is in danger of going belly-up unless he can find a fresh face to put in front of the camera.
Then Mikey meets Angie, a pint-sized con artist and wisegal, and he thinks she might be his ticket to success.
