Comment/Synopsis

Hayley Mills plays two identical twin girls who were separated at at a young age when their mother (Maureen O'Hara) and father (Brian Keith) get divorced. One is brought up in London and the other in California. They meet at summer camp and decide to bring their parents back together by changing places and trying to stop their father from marrying another woman. This is an entertaining family film which has a good performance from a young Hayley Mills and good support from Maureen O'Hara as the mother. This was remade in 1998 with Lindsey Lohan in the lead role.
