The Parent Trap

Henry Levin’s “The Parent Trap” is a charming caper about identical twins separated at birth and reunited at a summer camp, where they concoct a scheme to reunite their feuding parents. One twin, raised by her mother, and the other by her father, swap lives to bring their estranged parents back together, starting with the mission to drive off a gold-digging interloper pursuing their father. The film is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of youth, wrapped in the innocence of 1960s California.
