Short description
In the 1940s in the small town of Jupiter Hollow, two sets of identical twins are born in the same hospital on the same night. One set to a poor local family and the other to a rich family just passing through. The dizzy nurse on duty accidentally mixes the twins unbeknown to the parents. Our story flashes forward to the 1980s where the mismatched sets of twins are about to cross paths.
What's left behind the scenes
- The role of Sadie was originally intended for Barbra Streisand, and the role of Rose for Goldie Hawn.
- Before filming any scenes with her character (Rose Shelton), Lily Tomlin would spin around several times to make herself dizzy; this was necessary for her to portray the character's flighty and frivolous nature.
- The film crew did not have official permission to film at the New York Plaza Hotel, so they had to build sets in a pavilion. To recoup the money spent on construction, Disney used them in the sitcom The Nutt House (1989), for which the script was specifically adapted to fit the existing sets. This project flopped at the box office.
