The Parent Trap (1961)

Hayley Mills is the two-fer star of this original version of the 1961 Disney comedy. The young actress plays twin sisters originally unaware of each others' existence and who later determine to bring their divorced parents together again by secretly trading places. Brian Keith and Maureen O'Hara bring some adult legitimacy to their roles as the wary parents, Joanna Barnes is a good sport as dad's new and despised girlfriend, and director David Swift makes the whole production sprightly, warm, and fun. --Tom Keogh Amazon.com

Please Parents!

If you have young children (girls especially) show them the original Parent Trap, not the trash with Lindsay Lohan. This original Disney film is funny, adorable, and a personal favorite! February 10, 2008

A Classic

If you have seen the newer version starring Lindsay Lohan, but haven't seen the original version, you're in for an unexpected treat when you watch this Hayley Mills classic. It is 1,000% better than the remake. Hayley Mills outshines Lindsay in every respect. And the supporting cast, including Brian Keith and Maureen O'Hara add to its charm. Highly recommended. The remake fails miserably to stand up to this classic. You might want to try the Parent Trap and Parent Trap II Collection on DVD. November 24, 2007

I adore this movie

This is one of my all time favortie Disney movies. Hayley Mills is just a delight to watch on screen and expertly pulls off playing both "twins". Maureen O'Hara is as beautiful as ever, adding quite a bit of humor along the way as the twin's mother.

I have to admit, I love the house in California that is featured in the movie and that's a big part of why I watch it over and over again, but the main reason I watch it is because of the songs! I can sing along to all of them and I enjoy every minute of this classic film. I hope you do too! October 19, 2007
