I’ll Show You… The Parent Trap (1961)

Welcome to a new season of I'll Show You Mine! We're kicking things off with a Disney classic, The Parent Trap from 1961. Written and directed by David Swift, this movie follows the story of two twin girls separated as babies who meet up at summer camp and scheme to trade places and get their estranged parents back together.

This movie has it all: secret twins, summer vibes, a beautiful California ranch house, shady ladies, and love triangle shenanigans. It was a movie that was embedded into Elyse's childhood and even though James has seen the 1998 Lindsay Lohan remake, it's not the same thing! Join us as we talk about this film's great one-liners, praise Maureen O'Hara's outfits, and Elyse momentarily, unforgivably, forgets Natasha Richardson's name.

Our next episode will be June 19th, when James shows Elyse "Psychonauts" for the PS2.
