Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
(1998) Nancy Meyers' version of the story first filmed in 1953 and again in 1961 stars Lindsay Lohan as identical twins Hallie and Annie James, who meet for the first time at summer camp and realise they've been split up at birth by their divorced parents Nick and Elizabeth (Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson). So they swap identities to try to get their parents back together. This charming family film never descends into schmaltz, thanks in part to the supporting roles of Elaine Hendrix as the gold digger after Nick's money and Simon Kunz as Elizabeth's acidly droll butler.
