Suri Loves 'Hairspray'

Tuesday, May 13, 2008

Favorite kids' movies aren't always for kids.

John Waters would be proud. The daughter of mega-celebs Tom and Katie is so obsessed with the movie Hairspray, they took her to see it live on Broadway. No word on what the appeal is for Suri--those giant beehives or John Travolta in drag. Hopefully, Mom and Dad won't turn Suri on to the other cult classic John Waters flick, Pink Flamingos.

We asked around the Momlogic office to find out what off-the-beaten-path kid videos kids are watching:

annie.jpg"My son Dominic is a NUT for the 1933 version of King Kong. My husband and I have shown him the other two versions of the movie, but he can't get enough of the black-and-white stop motion animation." - Dulce, mom of 5
jill.jpg"My teenage girls are huge fans of Harold and Maude, the dark, existentialist love story between a death-obsessed boy and a senior citizen. Not exactly Mary Poppins, but it thrills me that they get the humor in this morbid but brilliant film."
- Jill, mom of 2
julie.jpg"My 4-year-old daughter loves the movie Elf. Every time she sees Will Ferrell in another movie or on TV, she thinks he's a real elf. She wants to put maple syrup on her spaghetti just like him." - Julie, mom of 2
jackie.jpg"My 4-year-old son likes to watch Dancing with the Stars--I'm not sure if it's because of the costumes and music or if he's manipulating me to stay up late." - Jackie, mom of 3
melissa.jpg"My 3-year-old likes to watch DVRs of the The Deadliest Catch, that TV show about crab fishing. When it's on and they pull up a big pot of crabs, he always says, 'Mom, that's a deadly catch!'" - Melissa, mom of 1
andrea.jpg"My 2-year-old loves old Marx Brothers movies. She asks to see the 'mans' as she calls them. Her favorite 'man' is the childlike Harpo." - Andrea, mom of 1


next: Hey Mom, Shut Up!

My 2-year-old son likes to watch Enchanted. He will get mad if you interrupt him while he is watching it.
