What happens

Look Who's Talking is a 1989 American romantic comedy film written and directed by Amy Heckerling and produced by M.C.E.G. Productions, Inc. and released on October 13, 1989 by Tri-Star Pictures. Starring John Travolta and Kirstie Alley, the film concerns the relationship between single mother Mollie Jensen (Alley) and her infant son Mikey's babysitter James Ubriacco (Travolta). Bruce Willis provides the voice of Mikey's precocious thoughts, heard only by the audience. The film also features Olympia Dukakis, George Segal and Abe Vigoda in supporting roles. The film received mixed reviews from critics, but it was nevertheless an enormous box office success, grossing $297 million worldwide on its budget of $7.5 million. This success launched a titular franchise, including two sequels Look Who's Talking Too (1990) and Look Who's Talking Now! (1993), and a television series spin-off titled Baby Talk.
