The Parent Trap -1961- -
What follows is a whirlwind of impersonation, slapstick, and heart. From Susan shocking prim Bostonians with her camping tricks to Sharon delicately handling her father’s dog, the twins navigate hilarious pitfalls before masterminding a reunion at a luxurious California hotel. Their ultimate scheme—a fake romantic reenactment of their parents’ first meeting—leads to a happy (and inevitable) ending.
Susan Evers (Mills) is a cool, California-raised girl living with her wealthy father, Mitch (Brian Keith). Sharon McKendrick (also Mills) is a poised, Boston-bred young lady raised by her elegant mother, Margaret (Maureen O’Hara). When both are sent to the same summer camp—Camp Inch—they discover they are identical twins, separated as infants after their parents’ bitter divorce. Initially rivals, they hatch a classic switcheroo: each will go home to meet the parent she never knew, then work together to reunite their estranged parents. The parent trap -1961-
