RIP, Natasha Richardson, the mom from this movie sadly passed away in 2009 following a skiing accident. She was 45.
If they made the movie year ago,she would have been *PERFECT* to play Lady Diana!💛
Always a reminder to people, if you get a head injury, go and see a doctor immediately. It doesn’t matter if you feel OK. Sadly, that’s what happened with Natasha, who had internal bleeding.
So tragic. She had so much ahead of her.
@@NetanelWorthy She was also married to Liam Neeson at the time of her accident
When that happened I felt like a piece of my childhood had died along with her. So tragic. I still think about that accident, and wonder how her family is doing all these years later.
Why would u tell me that 😭 I didn't know I wanted to live my life knowing that she never died 😢😢 why
It's incredible how Lindsay Lohan was able to to play both twins. Each scene featuring them both was filmed twice, with her playing either Hallie or Annie opposite a stand-in actress. The scenes were then edited together to make the combined scene appear seamless to viewers. It's remarkable film making.
Hayley mills did it first in 1961
Not to burst your bubble, but they did have a stand-in who played the opposite twin when both twins were in the same shot or talking to each other.
@@India.H But they mentioned that in the comment, they said she played opposite a stand-in actress.
Lindsay has always been the most flexible out of the early 2000's teen actresses. While Hillary Duff kept being put into the sweet nice girl category and Amanda Bynes in the clumsy tomboy, Lindsay could be girly, tomboy, serious, playful- just brilliant from a young age. Never really bought Emma Roberts as a bad girl in We're the Millers, for example.
@@India.HI think they were talking about when Lindsay Lohan's face needed to be duplicated
Fun fact the actor playing Meredith’s mother, Joanna Barnes , played the unwelcome fiancé, Vicky, in the original Parent Trap with Hayley Mills and Maureen O’Hara in 1961. I love both versions
I’m so glad you mentioned this, I was coming here to say it ❤️😆
@@kateness8Ditto!
Oh! I didnt know this
👍🏽
The 1961 is not the original. Its a remake from the 1950s version where the author of the books narrated the movie.
I think it's the same character. Her name is Vicky in both movies.
My brain can’t comprehend there are people who haven’t seen this movie LMAO I’ve watched it at least once a year since I was like 5 😂 such a great movie and a timeless classic
Also Chessie and Meredith are BFFs in real life!!! They hang out all the time and call each other sisters. So cool. They post on their IGs
I guess I’m an old softy. I tear up whenever Annie or Hallie sees her mother or father for the first time. I also lose it when Chessy makes her discovery as well.
Good timing with this video since it was recently revealed that the actress who played Chessie and the actress who played Meredith (who are long term friends after this movie) actually go way way back in their respective family history, having lived not too far away from one another.
yes, i saw that she took her as her date to a recent awards show!! love that❤
Did you see where they did a tiktok in 2021 where they recreated the moment where Meredith rang the bell for Chessie and Chessie stomped in to say "you rang?". It was cute. :)
I do love this movie. If you're interested, I highly recommend the original Parent Trap with Haley Mills. It's almost a shot-for-shot, and even decades older, it retains that humor and sweetness. I grew up on it. AND the woman who plays the snooty fiance is called Vicky instead of Meredith. The actor actually made an appearance in this movie as Meredith's mother..."You may call me Aunt Vicky!" 😂❤
There have been several adaptations of the novel "Das doppelte Lottchen" by German writer Erich Kästner over the years, the earliest (and therefore the original) being the 1950 one of the same name, for which Erich Kästner also wrote the screenplay.
@@tnx301 Oh shit, I had no idea lol Thank you!
@meghanmonroe Indeed! The original script is from The Parent Trap of 1961❤
Great example of how not all remakes suck. They really just took the core concept and overall plot points and updated it for the 90s.
The moment you see Natasha, her smile and running down the stairs as it goes to slow motion… will always bring tears to my eyes… she felt like your mom growing up. Knowing that she’s not physically here anymore, that scene will forever hit super hard 🥺 13:08
I have a twin sister, and we have the same birthday of October 11th (the same birthday the twins share in the movie)! We always call each other the parent trap twins!🤣
The way you mistook them for two separate people is hilarious. First time I watched I thought they were twins also.🤣💀
Lindsay Lohan was in some good remakes, such a talented young lady. Check out Freaky Friday with Jamie Lee Curtis they had such great chemistry together, but please check out the original Parent Trap 1961 and Freaky Friday 1976 with a young Jodie Foster too. I enjoy all your reactions Nick, and your collaborations too, keep up the great work 😊
Yes, love both of those!!
Vice Versa with Fred Savage and Judge Reinhold is also a good body swap comedy. :)
Yup also recommend Freaky Friday. So good 😊
There’s also a made for TV version of Freaky Friday that I grew up watching in the 90s and adored!
@@weepingscorpion8739 forgot about that one!! Classic ‘80’s! I’m going to guess you remember Weird Science as well…😜, another vhs favourite of mine lol
I'm so glad you caught Janice lol I was waiting!
I’ve literally been watching this movie for 20 years but only started seriously watching friends about 8 years ago and never realized that actress was Janice!! That’s so crazy to me and so funny because I’ve been watching your friends reactions for a while now and I know how much you love the character 😂😂
25:20 - Aunt Vickie was the original prospective stepmother in the original movie. She cameoed as Meridith's mother in this one.
If you would be interested in watching the original with Hailey Mills I'd love that! ❤️
Also the actress that plays Meredith's mother in this parent trap is an actress from the original movie! She played the same character as Meredith but her name was Vicki instead! It was so awesome she made a cameo in the remake 😍
Same, I would love it too!
I grew up watching the original quadology with Hayley Mills - The Parent Trap, The Parent Trap II, Parent Trap III, Parent Trap: Hawaiian Honeymoon. And while this reboot has its charm; I do slightly prefer the Hayley Mills version since its the first one I saw. I'd love to see a reaction to all 4 movies of the series.
Watch them back-to-back for further fun.
When my niece was a toddler (she is now in her 20s) we watched this movie at least twice a day.
This was always one of my favourite Disney movies growing up but I literally did not realise that was Janice until this year. 😂Vicky, Meredith's mom, was the other woman in the original 1960s version of the Parent Trap.
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen had a similar movie earlier in the 90s called "It Takes Two" that was more based on the Prince and the Pauper concept. It was a lot of fun, one of my favorite movies as a kid.
Natasha Richardson played Elizabeth and was part of a significant British acting dynasty. Her mother was Oscar-winning actress Vanessa Redgrave, and her sister was Joely Richardson. Not to mention, her father, grandfather, grandmother, and stepfather were also in show business. She was also very happily married to Liam Neeson, whom she met doing a play on Broadway with him. She died tragically young in a skiing accident. Liam has never fully gotten over her death (he has never remarried). The same year this film came out, she won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her performance as Sally Bowles in a landmark revival of Cabaret opposite Alan Cumming as The Emcee (who won Best Actor).
As for good Dennis Quaid movies: The Right Stuff (as Gemini astronaut Gordon Cooper), Enemy Mine, Postcards From the Edge (which was based on Carrie Fisher's roman a clef novel of her own life), Come See the Paradise, Wyatt Earp (as Doc Holliday), Dragonheart, Something To Talk About, The Rookie, The Special Relationship (as President Bill Clinton), and Midway (as Adm. Bull Halsey). There are more, but...just some that I really liked!
The reason the premise is so freaking wild by today's standards is because the original story (which later became a Disney movie in the 60s) was written in the early 20th century when married couples separating was much less common and if they had kids and didn't stay in touch, this kind of arrangement could actually happen.
I remember being super impressed by Lindsey’s acting when I first saw this movie. ❤
One of Dennis Quaid’s best films (and one of my ALL-TIME favorites) is “Frequency”. I’d LOVE to see your reaction to that!!
I agree!
Def!
My favorite of his is DragonHeart.
Ok I just watched the hug between Halley and her mother omg chills.
25:03-25:08 I laughed because this was a remake of a 1961 film by the same name.
I love how Chessie and the Grandfather are able to figure out something is wrong due to the girls not knowing to try and suppress their subconscious habits
Now to react to the Original Parent trap staring Hayley Mills (the 1961 film) and It Takes Two (1995) which is an Olsen twins rip off of the Parent Trap except that the identical little girls aren't actually sisters.
I remember when I was a kid I thought that the Parent Trap was a rip off of It Takes Two.
It Takes Two is more like a mixture of a modern Prince and the Pauper and The Parent Trap because the girls are not twin just looking identically and they come from a different social class beside different personalities. One of the girls is poor (Maybe even half orphan) while the other is rich. They even show a scene in the movie were the two girls get confused with each other by accident in the beginning.
I hope you do Freaky Friday too
The original is better in showing why the Parents didn’t get along together, until at the end when they revealed they missed each other and both were too stubborn to reach out to the other. More importantly, Susan (Hallie’s original) lashes out at Mom for the ordeal the kids were put through.
I loved this movie growing up! Also with your thought of how it would be similar to The Prince and the Pauper initially, there is a movie from 1995 called It Takes Two starring the Olsen Twins its similar to The Parent Trap but they aren't siblings in the movie
LOL, I was looking for this comment before deciding if I would post the same thing. :-)
It's actually a pretty good movie. They both are. I had a massive crush on the little girl in the original film (Hayley Mills) with I was a child.
Yep, that's Janice!!! 🤣😂💜💜
"Freaky Friday" should be next!!
Another movie you should check out is Innerspace. Starring Dennis Quaid, Meg Ryan, and Martin Short. It's been a favorite of my family for decades! ^_^
Omg the nostalgia! Good shout! My brothers and I watched this over and over had us in stitches every time
Ohhhh the crush I had on Dennis Quaid growing up (and still, let’s be honest) because of this movie 😩😩😍
He is SO funny and charming in "Undercover Blues" and a much younger Dennis Quaid in "Inner Space"! Definitely check those out if you have not yet.
I’m so glad you recognized Janice! I was holding my breath waiting to see if you did!
Based on a book by Erich Kästner, btw. "Das doppelte Lottchen."
Fun fact: the lady who played Jesse is on the tv show Abbott Elementary. Also, the lady who played Meredith is to this day really good friends with Lisa Walter aka Jesse.
Her name is actually spelled Chessie! 🤗
I grew up on the 1961 version starring Hailey Mills, Brian Keith and Maureen O'Hara since ot came out the year I was born. Vicky, the girlfriend's mother, played the girlfriend in the original. Her name was even Vicky in both movies but with different last names.
As for Dennis Quaid, I love him in *Innerspace* with Martin Short & Meg Ryan and in *Undercover Blues* with Kathleen Turner. He's also excellent in *Frequency* with Jim Cavaziel.
25:07 It’s so funny you say “this should be remade” because this film actually is a remake! The original came out in 1961 but the Lindsay Lohan version quickly become the dominate one.
Haha this is funny because the 1961 is a remake as well. The original came out in 1950 but the 1961 became the dominant one because it was in english
the mom in the movie passed away in real life, sad how too. i grew up watching this as a kid, i'm 31 now and idc what anyone says, i love my old movies, she also played in freaky friday with jamie lee curtis who played in halloween
29:32 Notice how Meredith's scene here is with Hallie (on her left) and Annie on her right was added in. You can tell because when she turns back to Annie she looks past her in shock, forgetting where she was supposed to be standing.
The little boy at the camp is actually Lindsay Lohans little brother Michael.
LOVE this movie, its a must watch for me every summer. Disney needs to go back to making this kind of live action films.
“You’re going to adopt Meredith” - so good!
Funny you said that they should remake this movie. This is a remake of 1961's, "The Parent Trap." I grew up with the original Parent Trap. On the rare occasions that it was on television, it was a family event in my household. Brian Keith played dad. Maureen O'Hara played the mother. (Man she was stunning in this film. What a beautiful woman.) And Haley Mills played the twins. Joanna barnes, who played Vicky Robinson in the original film, (dad's new girlfriend), also plays Vicky Blake, (mother of dad's new girlfriend), in this film. As a fan of the original film, I was delighted to hear Hallie singing "Let's Get Together" in this version of the movie. That was a piece of a song sung by "the twins" in the original film. The story line is about the same. Though, of course, it was updated a bit for modern audiences. But the original version is also a delight to watch and for fans of the '98 version, I highly suggest giving it a go. It is just as fun.
Funnily enough the 1961 is a remake of the 1950 movie which is the version i grew up with. I love that film so much but its barely known. It makes it even more interesting to see how it evolved over the years and remakes though.
@@artxzay3300 There is a German remake too (from 1994) which was the first book adaptaion I saw but the 1950's version is better.
Characters most likely to know:
Mum's side:
grandfather: when you're older you tend to notice these things.
Butler: honestly it's hard to say
Mother: normally i would say a mother can tell her children apart...but she seems very focused on her work.
dad's side:
father: he could be joking or he suspect something is up.
the dog: this is the huge problem...a dog will ALWAYS know the difference.
nanny: if she has been around a long time and knows the child well...i think she will know.
Believe it or not, peanut butter and oreos do taste great together. It's basically like a reese's peanut butter cup except it has cream filling with it. I tried it because of this movie. 😆
Anyone reading this should hunt down the 1961 version of The Parent Trap with Hayley Mills playing the lead roles. It’s so perfect. I love this version too but the original we used to hire from the video shop every school holidays. An absolute classic.
Love this movie i can quote it!! Also started having oreos with peanut butter cuz of this film!! And fun fact: that boy who thought it was a boys camp is Lindsey's younger brother!! 😂❤
When it comes to Dennis Quaid movies, I think you would REALLY like Frequency (2000). An actual underrated gem of a movie.
Was gonna comment the same 💜
I’m a huge Dennis Quaid fan. I’d recommend so many, but first & foremost, The Big Easy. Then The Rookie, Postcards from the Edge, Breaking Away, The Right Stuff, and Traffic.
interesting bit of trivia about the the parent trap...this was probably one of Lindsay Lohan's biggest success films and it was because they had two of her. i mean it was made LONG before any of the bad rumours began about Lindsay. many stories involving twins are usually so succesful.
well when parents gets divorced usually one parent gets custody...especially with twins...i mean separating twins nowadays would be considered detrimental to their development, twins learn a lot from their other half in early years. i think that's why this film is considered to interesting.
Lindsay Lohan was so good at playing twins that when I watched this for the first time I couldn't believe she didn't have a twin in real life. It's one of the movies I've watched the most, and my favourite movie growing up.
You've been posting some throw back bangers lately 💜 When this movie came out I thought they were actually twins lol
yesss. Me and my best friend watched it all the time when we were kids 💜@danniethedemon
I thought the same about the Patty Duke Show but that was because both twins were listed by their names, Patty and Cathy, instead of just Patty Duke.
God I used to watch this movie constantly as a kid. It still holds up really well!
You should check out the Father of the Bride movies with Steve Martin. Nancy Myers wrote those too, same vibes.
yesss please do both!
It’s Complicated too! Such a good movie
Don't know if you have any plans to delve into the Olsen Twin empire, but they have a movie called It Takes Two that is a fun twist on this premise.
Now you have to watch the 1961 version. The special effects to use Hailey Mills to be her own twin for the time were impressive!
the older “marva” (senior camp director) is played by Polly Holliday (Flo from the TV show Alice “Kiss My Grits !!!” )
@14:32 my personal fave Dennis Quaid movie is 'Yours, Mine & Ours' it was one of my fave movies growing up & it has a special place in my heart
I really like this movie, but I will always love the original. The Parent Trap (1961) and The Moon Spinners (1964) are why I fell in love with Hayley Mills and classic Disney movies ❤
This movie is just such a great one! First of all the editing on making Lindsay Lohan look like twins is just some of the best editing I've ever seen! I honestly sometimes forget that she plays both characters. It is also so funny and wholesome and chaotic! I won't lie, as iconic as Mean Girls is, I think this movie was Lindsay's best performance!
Undercover Blues (1993) is my favorite Dennis Quaid movie, but he was great in Frequency (2000) and The Day After Tomorrow (2004).
This movie is already a remake. The original was in the 60s and starred Hayley Mills as the twins. Doesn’t really fit with your 90s/2000s series but maybe you want to react to the original as well.
Another LL movie you might try out is Freaky Friday (also a remake of an earlier movie) with Jamie Lee Curtis playing the mom.
I would recommend the original. The "making a memory" scene with the grandfather was a direct callback to it.
Loved this reaction, such a classic movie!!
I always ask the same question every time I watch this movie. How did the grandfather get to the phonebooth in the park so fast ? lol #hesarunnerhesatrackstar
I thinking the phone booth was across the street slash on the corner from where there home was. Pretty close. He was suspicious right away and followed her. International calling takes a min to connect especially back then and especially if you was calling collect. Grandpa showed up about halfway threw the call. Yea it made it look like the call was answered right away. But it doesn't work like that. You need the operator asking if you accept the charges ect. Then your connected. And no way she paid for the call. She ran out of the house. She didn't stop for money. Especially International call money
@@Yugioh420Did you REALLY write out / !?! Lmaooooooo
This is my favorite movie of all time. I watched it so so often on VHS as a kid that my parents refuse to watch it with me now I'm 21 because they're so sick of it! As an only child in England this film was like a fantasy come true to find out you have a twin in another country lol. The ear piercing scene actually scared me from getting my ears pierced so much I waited until I was 16 only to realize it was literally nothing, felt similar to a stapler I guess XD Love the reaction as always and so so glad to see you enjoy this masterpiece! x :)
I think the roles of Annie/Hallie were first considered to be given to Scarlett Johanson, but she's slightly older than they wanted so they cast Lindsay instead.
I knew you were going to be happy to see Maggie Wheeler aka Janice in this movie 😊
Another movie similar to the Parent Trap is a movie called It Takes Two with The Olsen twins. It's a very good movie.
25:30 The Actress playing Meredith's mother played the role of Meradith in the original Parent Trap!
This movie is a remake, which I usually dislike, but I did grow up with this version. One of the few movies I saw with both my mother and grandmother as a kid. Good memories!
I grew up watching the original german version (1950 and 1994) and didn't even know there was a remake with Lindsey Lohan until a few years ago.
I like it a lot, but i prefer the original 😁
This was such a charming movie, me and my sister watched it often. Lindsey was great in her first role.
Childhood classic
@@danniethedemon yes! Love that movie
If you haven't seen it already, I'd recommend you watch Freaky Friday! I grew up with the one that had Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis as the main characters!
My favourite Dennis Quaide movies are this one, dragonheart and enemy mine. They are all super nostalgic as they are movies i watched as a kid. They remind me of my dad as he was the one who introduced me to them.
You forgot to tell the story at the end!
Be sure to watch the original 1960's version starring Haley Mills as the twins, Family Affair's Brian Keith as the Dad, and Miracle On 34th Street's gorgeous Maureen O'Hara as the Mom. Also by Disney, and also amazing! 👍😁😍
The original movie is awesome as well (1961) starring Haley Mills, Brian Keith and Maureen O'Hara
I love Jessie's character.... especially when Annie tells her....CAN I HUG HER...and then after dont look at me I don't know a thing, slam ...so good.
Since you haven’t seen a lot of Lindsay’s work in Disney, I think “Get A Clue” is actually amazing and it was a Disney Channel Original Movie, also starring Bug Hall, who played Alfalfa from “The Little Rascals,” and Brenda Song. It was a really good movie in my opinion, and I think you’d enjoy it for what it is 💚
I love the princess Diana look
I loved all the comparisons and references u made in this lol
In case anyone else wanted a translation of the french:
But you're kidding, I hope. Meredith is not the girl for you. But it's not possible, I'm dreaming. What...
Fun Fact: If you didn't know, this movie is actually a remake, the original movie came out in the 1961. And the lady that played Meredith's mother played Meredith's character in the original movie. Except the character's name was Vicky. I LOVE that they did that.
The 1961 is a remake as well. The original one came out in 1950 and is narrated by the author of the books
@@artxzay3300Really? That's so cool.
My favorite Dennis Quaid movie is "Innerspace" (1987) with his (soon to be) wife Meg Ryan. A very funny romcom/scifi movie.
I always feel a little sad when I see Natasha Richardson (R.I.P.🙏) anywhere in the media. We lost her way too soon and I don't think her husband has ever gotten over it. My favorite movie with Natasha was *_with_* her husband Liam Neeson in1994's "Nell". Super performances all around with a spectacular message story.
I first saw this movie at a film viewing in grade school. It has been one of my comfort movies ever since. 💖
So far you reacted to 2 of my top 10 favorite movies! Twister and The Parent Trap, Loving your channel. Please also consider: Forever Young (1992), The Time Traveller’s Wife, You’ve Got Mail, What Women Want, Wind River, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Predestination, Coherence, Deja Vu, The Lake House. A good mix of some of my favorites. Hope you watch!
This is an example that a remake can be a good movie.
The only boy at the camp was played by Lindsay Lohan’s real life brother.
This is actually a remake of a film by the same name from 1961. Joanna Barnes who plays Meredith's mother in this one was in the 1961 film (essentially playing Meredith's role).
I always wondered how the parents came to the decision to separate the girls, especially because they weren't horrible people. (though that is kind of horrible). It's still one of my favourite childhood movies.
Besides this and Mean Girls, some of Lindsay Lohan's best roles are in Freaky Friday, Herbie Fully Loaded, Life-Size, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen and Just My Luck. I recommend watching Freaky Friday especially. And speaking of Matilda: Before Lohan was cast, Mara Wilson auditioned was considered for the role.
Dennis Quaid has been in, among others: The Day After Tomorrow, In Good Company, Cold Creek Manor, Soul Surfer, A Dog's Purpose (and its sequel A Dog's Journey) and I Can Only Imagine. Coincidentally, there is a 39 year age gap between Quaid and his current wife. Elaine Hendrix, who plays Meredith, tweeted him "better watch out for those twins!"
Natasha Richardson, the daughter of Vanessa Redgrave and sister to Joely Richardson (who was in the live action 101 Dalmatians), who plays Elizabeth, tragically died in a skiing accident in 2009 at the age of 45. She was married to Liam Neeson at the time of her death.
Fun fact: Two years after the release of this movie, Lisa Ann Walter, who plays Chessy, gave birth to twin boys on October 11th (same date as in the movie).
Elaine Hendrix (Meredith) and Lisa Ann Walter (Chessy) have been very close friends since filming. Just recently they learned that their great-grandparents lived just blocks apart in NYC in the early 1900s and may have known each other.
The black dress Martin suggests that Elizabeth wears to impress Nick is a nod to the dress Princess Diana wore after her divorce form Charles, referred to as the "revenge" dress.
Finally, you forgot your story at 17:30!
I honestly this this might be one of my favourite films! I'm loving you watching a load of 90s and 00s classics!
yay I´m so happy you decided to do this movie, I asked about you doing it a few weeks ago😊. Y don´t know if you saw my comment, either way, to me this is such nostaliga and I always enjoy your reactions.
It's kind of crazy how Natasha Richardson ( RIP to her , such a sad story ) looks quite like Emma Thompson in this cool movie !
When I was a kid and my parents told me that they WEREN'T ACTUALLY TWINS but Lindsey Lohan playing both girls, I refused to believe them.
To be fair, Mary-Kate and Ashley ARE actual twins and super popular at the time and so it made sense that twins would act in the same movie. More sense than production magic lol
You're not 'Thor' anymore? The hair is still luxurious, aaannnd finally subbed.
Vicki was the Meredith of the original movie and a nice cameo.
You should definitely do a reaction vid now to the 1961 version. See if you like it as much!
