Three sentence movie reviews: The Parent Trap
A repeat viewing on my part to introduce the boyfriend to Sharon and Susan, and women of all ages being catty. This is one of those movies I can’t objectively review because I watched it many times during my youth, and thus always find it enjoyable. “The soundtrack tells you what to feel,” was one of the boyfriend’s observations, which left me contemplating when that orchestral mood-setting technique of movie making was dropped.
Cost: streaming via Netflix
Where watched: at home with Matt
poster from: http://www.impawards.com/1961/parent_trap.html
What in god’s name is going on with this poster? The header title? The fact that Maureen O’Hara is in a wedding gown? The woman who looks nothing like the child bride and her electric hips?

Oh how I ADORE this movie! I have also watched it so many times. The skirt being cut scene, the “Let’s get together, yeah, yeah, yeah!” and their delightful parents (such fun!).
I was quoting along with the film and Matt said, “do you have this whole thing memorized?” Why yes, I do. How did you ever know?
