The Parent Trap

Trivia: As Hal meets Meredith coming out of an elevator in the hotel, she is mumbling "Let's Get Together", which was a song from the original movie.

Trivia: In the scene when Hallie (playing as Annie) and Liz (the mom) are walking to the photo shoot, they're walking across the street. It goes into a freeze frame while playing 'Here Comes The Sun', that was a Beatles song and the Beatles took a picture in those exact poses.

Trivia: The actress who plays Meredith's mom is the same woman who played Vicky in the original film.

Trivia: The hotel in San Francisco where they're all supposed to meet is the Stafford Hotel. In the original film, Stafford was the name of the boyfriend that twin Susan, playing Sharon, makes up to excuse talking to her mother about her father.

Trivia: The street Hallie and her mom are walking across is a remake of Abbey Road, recreating everything from the people to the cars, etc.

Revealing mistake: When Hallie trashes Annie's cabin and the huge water balloon is about to fall on Annie's head, the camera is at a downward view and Annie clearly steps into the trail of the balloon instead of jumping away. (00:18:05)

Question: In the scene where the dad tells Annie, pretending to be Hallie, that he is going to marry Meredith, Hallie yells a bunch of stuff in French. Does anyone know what she was saying?

Answer: I hope that you are joking, Meredith is not the girl for you. But it is possible that I am dreaming that this is so.

Answer: She actually said, "Marry her?! That's insane! How can you marry a woman young enough to be my big sister?!"
