The Parent
Trap. This amazing movie directed by Nancy Meyers was released in 1998, and it is a story about these two
girls, who discovered in the Walden Camp that they were twins, separated by
their parents the year they divorced, in 1997. The story goes on and on when the
girls, called Anne and Hallie, agreed on carrying on this kind of plan, which
consists in that Hallie finally meets her mother and Anne, her father, but
changing their personalities to become one in another
Everything seems perfect when each girl gathers
either with their mother or father until Anne finds out- in Hallie’s shoes-
that Nicholas Parker, her father, was going to marry a twenty-six year-old
woman called Meredith Blake. This allows the girls’ plan to start to fall, as
one of the objectives of it was to reunite their parents. Nevertheless, they
found a back-up plan, where they arrange to join Elizabeth James, their mother,
with Nicholas in a hotel in San Francisco, where the wedding was going to be
held. Finally, Elizabeth and Nicholas get together again, renewing their
wedding vows and living together in London as a family.
The main characters, Anne and Hallie, were
taken to life by Lindsay Lohan, who performed both the twins. According to this
information given, the special effects were fundamental for the people involved
in the play, as they have to make that these two girls, who in reality are only
one actress, playing both roles, to meet and speak each other.
As a conclusion, is very well organized,
either by the actors, the places they used- because it takes place in two
different countries, United States and Great Britain. Also, it involves the spectator
into the girls’ lives, trying to communicate what the girls felt growing up
either with their father or their mother. This is shown in the girls’ desire of
meeting them. In addition, the rest of the actors taking part of the movie are
very well skilled, trying to express the situation of their dialogue.
