I grew up with this movie, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched it and I cry every single time! I think Elizabeth James was supposed to emulate Princess Diana: a young, beautiful, successful British woman who’s divorced and has red headed offspring lol but seriously Natasha Richardson was just a breathtaking woman inside and out. RIP. This whole movie and its cast is just pure gold.
RoyalMasterpiece Natasha Richardson was a very beautiful and very talented young woman. What a huge loss, with her passing away at such a young age (45). I also love Natasha and will always remember her. GRHS.
This was the shortest 30 minute video I've ever seen...their chemistry is great. Also, that Meredith "411" monologue from Elaine was SPOT ON (same timing, vocal tone, facial expressions, etc), and Lisa pulled out the tears so fast as well.
Yeah she’s a fine actress and she seemed to be a well adjusted kid when she did The Parent Trap. But obviously there were a lot of problems brewing in her family that those 2 actors didn’t know about and the whole thing exploded when she got older.
She probably felt pressure not to take sick days... interesting how they praised her for being 'professional' for working while sick. Someone should have encouraged her to take a sick day so she knew it was ok to do that. When you're young, you want to please everyone and not cause any annoyances. But that's not a good work habit to carry forward.
Seems to be the theme of the entire video with those two. Lisa is doing the talking and Elaine just looks on judging everything and interjects momentarily in her dry, nonchalant, bitchy humor. Love it. But strange duo to be BFFs 👯♀️
Who would've thought that 2 on-screen enemies would be off-screen, real life BFFs? I remember watching The Parent Trap, it's a gem 👯👭💎 Every scene was a side splitter and a tearjerker. Never get tired of that part: "Chessy! (Rings bell) CHESSY!! You rang??"
I had a best friends in primary school, we were like 11 or so, and we use to watch it and act out the scenes in our room when we got back from school 😂😂😂😂😂
The funniest moment for me was when Meredith asks a question and the twin answers "Are you talking to me?" and Meredith responds "Who do you think you are Robert DeNero?"
Lisa Ann (Chessy) is such a gorgeous woman and I love her lively personality. I wish she was in more films and I really enjoy her in Abbott’s Elementary now! Elaine (Meredith) is also such a awesome beautiful human! Love them both so much. ❤️
When she says "I can't help it I'm just drawn this way" that's a reference to the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit where the character Jessica Rabbit says "I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way"
@@katiekushnerov3262 shoot, I'm sorry to hear that. I know what it's like to fall into the "trap" of people who seem very kind and then turn out not to be...
Fun fact: the scene where Dennis Quade sees his wife from the elevator and almost falls over as the doors are closing is actually a nod to a Cary Grant movie (My Favorite Wife) which also was remade (into a movie called Move Over Darling), and used the same gag ...
I love this! They seem like really great people. Man I miss the innocent days of the 90s when you could write a good film, the actors were heartfelt and amazing, and the entire experience left a positive impression on everyone. Good times.
Elaine was in Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion and she played one of the mean girls who ended up doing a really cool character arc. Love Elaine and Lisa!!!
I have had the pleasure of becoming very friendly with Elaine. She is very active with animal rights and helps raise money for Stray Rescue in St Louis. She is such a warm, caring person and a WONDERFUL sense of humor!!!
this movie is our family tradition, ever single member of our family has seen it like 12 times maybe more, even my brother in law had to see the movie before he could mary my sister
90% of the talking was done by Lisa. The small 10% Elaine had was nearly interrupted by Lisa. Then again, the entire talk was very interisting and beautiful. Thank you!!!
The movie came out when I was 1 year old, I’m 23 now. They still look exactly the same. They’re absolutely gorgeous and I love that their best friends in real life. I wish they both had more current roles..they’re both amazing.
I wish Natasha was in this video. She was such a beautiful actress. Such a tragedy how her life ended. I absolutely loved her in this movie. She reminds me so much of my mom when she was younger
The Parent Trap is one of the GREATEST movies of all time, if not the BEST. I LOVE that movie!! Love these lovely ladies, and beautiful Natasha. She will always be missed. RIP Natasha.😞
Actually, it was Una Merkel, not Thelma Ritter, who played "Verbena" in the 1961 version, the part that was on par with the "Chessy" character played by Lisa in the 1998 version.
So nice seeing these two love ladies interviewing together. Nice to know that Chessy and Meredith really are good friends in real life too, LOL! They HATED each other in the movie, they were both so different. Funny how both women are kinda opposite to their “Parent Trap” characters in real life too. Elaine Hendrix is actually quite a nature girl since she grew up in the countryside, while Meredith was definitely more of a cosmetic little prima Donna. Lisa Ann Water is actually quite the girly girl/shopaholic since she grew up in the city, while Chessy was more of an artistic, free-spirited type in the movie. They must have loved filming this movie!!!
Elaine and Lisa discussing fans behavior. I had lunch with an aunt in the 90’s, she was a very successful popular character actress. When I visited her, going out to eat or ANYWHERE was an adventure. People ARE so funny in restaurants!!!
October 11 must be a magical twin day, Lisa Ann Walter... That's when my fraternal twins boys were born! My kids loved this movie and that made it extra special!
I love the parent trap ❤️ I used to watch it every single day! I learned every single scene and every single line that my mom got annoyed and she broke my VHS :( lol 😂 I still rewatch all the time ❤️🤗
They showed this amazingly funny movie on X-mas day and repeated on Boxing day today in Germany. It's titled in German, " Ein Zwilling kommt selten allein." RIP: Natasha Richardson!
Elaine Hendrix is an amazing actress. That camping scene when they were going to the lake, it really looked like she was struggling and having a hard time and was afraid of the lizard and hated it.
28:43 Una Merkel played the original housekeeper (Verbena), not Thelma Ritter - although Thelma Ritter is a wonderful character actress and one of my favorites.
😮Elaine smashed that scene! It's so good. And she still remembers every line. Not gonna lie I didn't like her character for obvious reasons but wow. She is good. Chessie was literally the kind of mum I wanted to have. Even though I love my mum. She just has something about her. Loving and if there's something going on you aren't telling her she's going to find out and help you.❤
I don't know if anybody knew or not but the character vickie was the same person played in the original has vickie but she repraised her role has vickie in the re-make has meredith's mom
I grew up with this movie, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched it and I cry every single time!

Love that film too
Who’s RIP?
@@vidkris1535 Natasha Richardson
Same!
You're right. Natasha Richardson totally reminds me of Princess Diana.
Oh my god Chessy and Meredith are bestys mind blown.
Lol I know this is sooo strange XD
They probably had a connection during the set and became best friends after this movie.
Wait wait wait....how many times have I seen this movie and thought her name was "Jessy" not "Chessy"
Same with me also Lauren. I thought it was Jessie because the way Lindsey Lohan said her name. Of course the New York accent kicked in.
Me too!!!! Until right now
SAME!! And my kids watched that movie over and over, lmao!
I am fat late on this video but her name is Chessy, if you look up the movie cast you can see the name that th script had
Same! I think I thought that the character Meredith was just being bitchy and called her by the wrong name.
I loved Natasha Richardson. RIP 🌹
It's a shame she's not in this interview
RoyalMasterpiece Natasha Richardson was a very beautiful and very talented young woman. What a huge loss, with her passing away at such a young age (45). I also love Natasha and will always remember her. GRHS.
Can’t believe it’s 10 years
Dang what happened? I didn't know
She died due to a head injury from skiing if I remember.
"people think the nanny from the parent trap is probably 80 by now." OMG 😂😂
Meredith played that character so well I hated her but she’s so nice
Usually that's how it works..😉
@@freespirit_17 yep… they usually get someone to play a nasty character who is the exact opposite of that character in real life.
This was the shortest 30 minute video I've ever seen...their chemistry is great. Also, that Meredith "411" monologue from Elaine was SPOT ON (same timing, vocal tone, facial expressions, etc), and Lisa pulled out the tears so fast as well.
“I have 4 kids.. that I know of” lol wtf
She's just joking Lol
elaine had 3?
Common joke for guys.. funny when a woman says it though haha
My heart breaks for Lindsay Lohan because the poor girl went through trauma of all kinds in Hollywood. So sad.
Yeah she’s a fine actress and she seemed to be a well adjusted kid when she did The Parent Trap. But obviously there were a lot of problems brewing in her family that those 2 actors didn’t know about and the whole thing exploded when she got older.
She probably felt pressure not to take sick days... interesting how they praised her for being 'professional' for working while sick.

But that's not a good work habit to carry forward.
These two need their own show! They are so hilarious! 😂
Yes I Agree 💯😊
Haha I love that Lisa admits to botox and Elaine is just like 😳🤫
Hahahahaha 😂 those emojis: on point
Seems to be the theme of the entire video with those two. Lisa is doing the talking and Elaine just looks on judging everything and interjects momentarily in her dry, nonchalant, bitchy humor. Love it. But strange duo to be BFFs 👯♀️
Right. Not like you can't tell.
Ugh I can’t hate Meredith Blake anymore , she’s actually a sweetheart
Elaine Hendrix would make an excellent Cruella!
I was thinking the same thing. She would be perfect. Have you seen her on the new dynasty
That's hilarious since Annie actually called Meredith Cruella as an behind the back comment!
The Parent Trap is one of the GREATEST movies of all time, if not the BEST.
I still love this movie. Dennis Quaid was such a stud. Lindsay was so good. Elaine and Lisa played their roles perfectly.
I am proud of Lilo for getting where she is. It's not easy to have trainwreck parents and come out on top
I literally squealed when they did their monologues! So good!! 😆
Who would've thought that 2 on-screen enemies would be off-screen, real life BFFs? I remember watching The Parent Trap, it's a gem 👯👭💎 Every scene was a side splitter and a tearjerker. Never get tired of that part: "Chessy! (Rings bell) CHESSY!! You rang??"
Natasha Richardson seemed like a sweet person, just the air about her. I remember hearing about her tragic death. It saddened me.
Oh my/ 20 years!!! I remember rewatching it on a tape for so many times!!!
dsubdu I still do
I had a best friends in primary school, we were like 11 or so, and we use to watch it and act out the scenes in our room when we got back from school 😂😂😂😂😂
Ok can these two have a RUclips channel or a podcast or something together?! They are hilarious!
I think the worst prank was the waking up in the middle of a lake. They didn’t make the lizard go in her mouth, but they did push her into a lake 😂
Happy 20th Anniversary, "Parent Trap '98" #LetsGetTogether

Elaine has such an interesting personality, I don't really know how to describe it, but it makes me wanna be friends with her. 💁🏼😌
trust me u dont want to be in her trap i tried to be her friend and it ended horribally
@@katiekushnerov3262 you know her?? Just curious what you mean by your comment
99miyah yes I know her wayy to personally. She’s horrible. As long as she thinks I’m in a psyc ward I’m good
@@katiekushnerov3262 shoot, I'm sorry to hear that. I know what it's like to fall into the "trap" of people who seem very kind and then turn out not to be...
@@katiekushnerov3262 how do you know her? just wondering is all
Fun fact: the scene where Dennis Quade sees his wife from the elevator and almost falls over as the doors are closing is actually a nod to a Cary Grant movie (My Favorite Wife) which also was remade (into a movie called Move Over Darling), and used the same gag ...
Oh wow you're right! I've only seen Move Over Darling, but yes :)
I love this! They seem like really great people. Man I miss the innocent days of the 90s when you could write a good film, the actors were heartfelt and amazing, and the entire experience left a positive impression on everyone. Good times.
It's a remake of the 1961 film so it was written in the late 50s or 1960.
I knew something was different about Annie’s voice in that swing scene! I freakin knew it!!!
Meg Fujiwara I also thought the same!
Elaine was in Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion and she played one of the mean girls who ended up doing a really cool character arc. Love Elaine and Lisa!!!
"You rang?" is really epic!
I have 4 kids... That I know of. 😂 What a line chessy
Yay, I love these two so much. Thank you for interviewing them. Lisa Ann is my hero. I think she is the best actress in the world.
I have had the pleasure of becoming very friendly with Elaine. She is very active with animal rights and helps raise money for Stray Rescue in St Louis. She is such a warm, caring person and a WONDERFUL sense of humor!!!
She is so lovely. O loved her as chessy, although it has only been revealed to me today her name wasn’t jesse 😅😅😅
My heart. My whole, entire, 90s baby heart. This video is fabulous. Thank you for uploading!
this movie is our family tradition, ever single member of our family has seen it like 12 times maybe more, even my brother in law had to see the movie before he could mary my sister
LOL sounds like what my sis and I did to her bf but with the movie Grease 😅
90% of the talking was done by Lisa. The small 10% Elaine had was nearly interrupted by Lisa. Then again, the entire talk was very interisting and beautiful. Thank you!!!
did she just say ‘i have four kids THAT I KNOW OF’😂😂😂😂
I am SOO glad they asked them about Joanna Barnes (Vicki), i love her and it was cool to hear how they hung out together with her!
I recognized and got the joke right away. I was so excited because I was also in love with the old B&W
they are so sweet and love eachother so much i want another 20 interviews like this. just them talking and joking
I met Elaine and she is INCREDIBLY sweet.
Lol they admitted to botox 😂😂😂
The movie came out when I was 1 year old, I’m 23 now. They still look exactly the same. They’re absolutely gorgeous and I love that their best friends in real life. I wish they both had more current roles..they’re both amazing.
Lisa Ann's uncle was my doctor as a child. He bragged about her so much; it was so sweet!
How sad is it that Elizabeth James is dead😭
My favourite film of all time!💗✨
I wish Natasha was in this video. She was such a beautiful actress. Such a tragedy how her life ended. I absolutely loved her in this movie. She reminds me so much of my mom when she was younger
My two favorite people from the movie!!!
Darreyl Henderson as well as Natasha same
I love how this video was uploaded on my birthday the Parent trap is one of my favorite childhood movies !
The Parent Trap is one of the GREATEST movies of all time, if not the BEST. I LOVE that movie!! Love these lovely ladies, and beautiful Natasha. She will always be missed. RIP Natasha.😞
what is the 411 on Meredith
This is one of my all time favorite movies. I am so glad I have daughters to share this movie with.
Actually, it was Una Merkel, not Thelma Ritter, who played "Verbena" in the 1961 version, the part that was on par with the "Chessy" character played by Lisa in the 1998 version.
I love the part where Meredith got pushed out to shore on a mattress.
I love Lisa Ann Walter 😭😭😭♥️
What an absolutely fantastic interview / video!! It gets better and better and better as the minutes go by!!!!
They actually do both look the same! Wow 20 years.. that’s crazy.
Camping trip!!! Best seen.
When you woke up in the water on the air mattress!! Best part so awesome and funny!!
I can’t believe it’s been 20+ years. I was literally 17 when this movie came out. 😱
*dont cry, don’t cry, don’t cry*
Me: AHHHHHHHH RIP NATASHA RICHARDSON
So nice seeing these two love ladies interviewing together. Nice to know that Chessy and Meredith really are good friends in real life too, LOL! They HATED each other in the movie, they were both so different.

"Both of us had most of our scenes with her." "She was the star of the movie." Funny how that works!
It's really off putting how chill Elaine is
This was so much fun to hear behind the scenes and see them again!
Parent Trap with Lindsay Lohan was my movie when I was growing up! 🤗
October 11 must be a magical twin day, Lisa Ann Walter... That's when my fraternal twins boys were born! My kids loved this movie and that made it extra special!
How come the lady on the left looks like Angelica’s Mom from the Rugrats?
Because she does, LOL!!! 🤣🤣🤣
She just does. Lol.
Besides Parent Trap I’ll always remember Elaine Hendrix from Superstar and Romy and Michelle lol
SAME!
Wish Natascha was alive :/
Annika me too
I hated Meredith as a child, but love her as an adult.
Elaine Hendrix is so underrated. She was really good as the cunning 20 something golddigger.
I love the parent trap ❤️ I used to watch it every single day! I learned every single scene and every single line that my mom got annoyed and she broke my VHS :( lol 😂 I still rewatch all the time ❤️🤗
When I was little , I hated Meredith. Now I’m 32, I’ve turned in to Meredith 😂 😂 I joke

One of my favorite interviews to watch now! So cool!!!
The perfect family film in my opinion
Yey Meredith Blake is single and is a cat lady. Love you!
28:43 Una Merkel played the original housekeeper (Verbena), not Thelma Ritter - although Thelma Ritter is a wonderful character actress and one of my favorites.
BeckyhasDystonia I'm glad someone else caught that as well😂
I love to scene with the lizard.
Yesss! Also when they put her on the airbed in the lake 😂
xspringrose That seems like overkill. Although, then she somehow really thinks he's going to choose her over his daughters. So...
Omg I’m so happy I found this it makes me so happy I love parent trap
Omg, I love these girls!! They still look the same🥰🥰🥰🥰.. i wish they would do something together cause they are so adorable and funny lol ❤
I LOVE these two actresses SO MUCH ❤️
They seem like so much fun.
Can these ladies do a sitcom together? 😀😀😀
OMG CHILDHOOD COMPLETE 😄😇🤧💕
I'm still not ready for my childhood to be complete lol
man this makes me so happy , parent trap is my favorite movie!
😮Elaine smashed that scene! It's so good. And she still remembers every line. Not gonna lie I didn't like her character for obvious reasons but wow. She is good.

Bravo. I'm so familiar on their monologues. I watched it like a million times
Lisa is just delightful, was so funny in Shall We Dance too!!
16:25 *I'm dead* 😂
Who went to watch the beginning of the camping scene to spot Elaine's glued together skin on her shin after hearing about it? Guilty.
21:51 They should have used that for the thumbnail. 😂
12:52 Meredith’s Prada backpack 😂
I love Chessy😍
I don't know if anybody knew or not but the character vickie was the same person played in the original has vickie but she repraised her role has vickie in the re-make has meredith's mom
Honestly love this duo!!
These women have not aged 🤩
Its so crazy to see the relations of the celebrities off-camera.
Lisa looks so good!!!!
This is such a feel good movie and knowing that these actresses have remained friends is even better! ❤️❤️❤️
Both of them seem so much down to earth. Love them both and I watched this movie like a million times, i know the most scenes by heart 😍
