The Parent Trap
I didn’t realise a rom-com could be so… epic. It has way too much cinematic clout for what it is, and it’s amazing.
It’s also stunning how good Lindsay Lohan is. She plays both roles perfectly, even though it was her first film and she was presumably acting to a stand-in every time Hallie and Annie are interacting. The editing that supports that is top-notch too.
