what would a twin's reaction be if it grew up without it's twin and then saw it after many years?

Question

just wondering.

Answer 1

It would probably be shock at first and then possibly anger. MIssing all those years with their sibling.

Answer 2

I agree with the previous post. Watch the parent trap, but watch the Haley Mills Version, not the LIndsey Lohan version. The Haley Mills version, true was in the 60's and the time setting was much different and problems were handled much different than now, but that one tells a better story and in the most unadulterated, so to speak.

Here's what one review said on the Amazon Page about how good the movie is:

A Classic Charmer, September 26, 2003
Reviewer: Gary F. Taylor "GFT" (Biloxi, MS USA) - See all my reviews

Although the split-screen technique had been around for a decade or so, it was usually more noted for its failures than its success, and the actor required to play dual roles usually took tremendous heat for their failure to create two physically identical but distinctly different characterizations on screen. But with THE PARENT TRAP, with the difficult dual role resting on the shoulders of an extremely young star, Walt Disney struck gold. It would be the single highest grossing film the studio had released up to that time, and even some forty years later the baby-boomers who flocked to see it in 1961 regard it as one of their favorite movie experiences.
But THE PARENT TRAP has a lot more going for it than mere nostalgia. The cast is really, really good, featuring the ever-likable Maureen O'Hara and Brian Keith in leading roles and a host of great character actors (including Leo G. Carroll and Nancy Kulp) in minor roles. And then there is Haley Mills. The daughter and sister of noted English actors, Mills was no newcomer to the screen when THE PARENT TRAP went before the cameras--she had even picked up an Oscar for her earlier Disney film POLLYANNA. Even so, this was no guarantee that she could pull off the feat of double roles, something that had daunted even the legendary Bette Davis. But she did.

The story has been told so often that surely every one knows it by now. A wife delivers twin daughters--but shortly afterward divorces her husband, and each wins custody of one child. The children are raised without any knowledge of each other's existence... until they unexpectedly bump into each other at summer camp, put two and two together, and devise a scheme to get their parents back together again.

Even today, and in spite of its familiarity, it's an amusing idea, and while the actual script is weak in spots the cast, and especially Haley Mills, makes the most of it. There's plenty of slapstick, lots of laugh-out-loud scenes, and enough charm to beguile all but the most cynical viewers. And Haley Mills clearly demonstrates why she was regarded as the single most gifted child actor of her era: although she plays both Susan and Sharon with the same edge of mischievous fun, they do indeed come off as completely different personalities.

Of course, digital technology has left the old split-screen technique in the dust, and today its easy to see the flaws in the technique that weren't so obvious at the time. And the quality of the film transfer is not the best: while this isn't the worst transfer I've seen, it is full of artifacts nonetheless. Even so, the appeal of the story, the cast, and most particularly Haley Mills make up for a lot, and this Disney double DVD comes complete with a host of bonuses (including a making-of documentary and an audio commentary track by director David Swift and Haley Mills) that fans will enjoy quite a bit.

If you were a fan of the film then, you'll remain a fan of it now. And if you want to introduce your family to a truly charming movie experience, you couldn't make a better choice.

Answer 3

sister sister just like parent trap and it takes two neither one new they were a twin until they saw there twin face to face. sister sister were identical and they thought they had each others face (funny) parent trap was different because they didn't even know until they saw each other pic of there parent they were living with. and it takes two is the girls from full house twins to begin with but they didn't know they were twins either.

Answer 4

My initial reaction would be to assume it is myself from the future who came back to kill me and live in my place with all his knowledge of the future in order to become wealthy. So my obvious reaction would be to follow and then kill my twin.

Answer 5

it is a very hard thing to deal with, you wonder why you were seperated, you harbor feelings twords those around you. you are heppy and upset at the same time expecially when you find each other at aroud 11 and the other one dies at 16.

Answer 6

Watch the Parent trap. LOL

Answer 7

it would probably be very shocked to see someone looking like them especially if they never new about there twin
