The '70s home decor is making me feel so warm and fuzzy I could actually cry. 😪💕

"I wish I could switch places with her for just one day." Fun Fact: Jodie Foster was offered the Princess Leia role in Star Wars: A New Hope (1977) around the time that this movie was in development when George Lucas had wanted to make the character young. Unfortunately, Foster was still under contract to Disney. There may have been a way for Foster to get out of the contract, but her mother decided to honor the contract and as such Foster contractually completed Freaky Friday (1976) for Disney. I would honestly love to visit the universe where Jodie Foster got the role of Princess Leia. Bonus Fact: The fake braces that Jodie Foster wears in the movie were designed in such a way so as to cover the cap between her top palate's two front teeth. Foster says on the DVD bonus feature that the dental bands had a vocal effect on her speech in the movie.

I am so glad someone is reacting to this movie, I love it and I grew up watching this movie. This is so so much better than the original, you get John Astin, you get Jodie Foster, you get Barbara Harris, what more can you ask?????

This original one will always be my favorite! Barbara Harris is amazing in this!

father from Addams Family, cleaning guy fro Alice, fathers coworker from Eight is Enough, hockey coach from Laugh In, and crew from Happy Days

Jodie Foster was so incredible in the 70s!

In her brief Disney period, Jodie also did a really cool little movie called Candleshoe that's a wee bit darker, but still has some slapstick antics. Check it out.

Ive got candleshoe on dvd still love that film i think shes the real granddaughter all along too

The first time my mother cleaned my room, I thought I'd been robbed. Poor dog looks like he'd trip over his own ears.

I just love that you're willing to include films on your channel that no one else (at least that I've seen) ever even touches!! Yes, the original movies are so often so superior, but almost always get ignored, forgotten or not even discovered! Thank you!! Also, this original version here was adapted from the book by its author, Mary Rodgers. Jodie Foster's first theatrical film was also from Disney, "Napoleon & Samantha". During the '70s, she was in 3 Disney films & 2 Scorsese films, surely a rare, if not unique, accomplishment, especially for such a young star & she also starred or appeared in various other '70s films to boot.

@@katreacts6843 Disney used Lindsay Lohan to star in a stream of remakes of its own movies, also including "The Parent Trap", which originally starred Hayley Mills. The "twins" effect the 1961 original used for wide shots must've been a pretty big deal for the time. Btw, there are 2 additional versions of "Freaky...", a 1995 TV movie & a 2018 musical, which must've been made for the Disney channel. Several great live-action Disney films from the '70s (which, as far as I know, have not yet been remade) are "The $1,000,000 Duck", "Snowball Express" & "The Apple Dumpling Gang" (a Western).

Omg love this film!! Thanks Kat

Thanks for watching :D

I love this movie! The remake is actually really good as well, but this is the original. It has me laughing out loud so many times... Like the laundry scene; the dog is like, "What the fuck are you doing, lady?!" And the most heartwarming scene to me was when the son tells her how much he loves his sister even though she treats him so bad.

This brings back so many memories. Thank you for the post.

Comparing the two is good. I want to see both versions of The Parent Trap.

I fully support watching both to compare. Each has little details that I like, but I think I prefer the original. There are other body swap comedies out there, like Vice Versa, if you enjoy the subgenre. John Astin looks so odd without his mustache. I always think of him as Gomez, so seeing his bare upper lip takes me a second to match the face with his voice 😅

You should check him out in the recurring role of Buddy, the judge's father, on the '80s sitcom "Night Court".

Another solid Disney film that came out 5 years before I was born. Jodie Foster was excellent, as she usually is. She's a teen female Disney character who isn't trying to be a little princess. Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis were in the remake and while it's not half bad, it's not as good as this. The 70s, 80s and especially 90s were filled with movies where kids talked like real kids, not a censored version of a parents' unrealistic expectations. They're not role models, they're just believable characters. Like Eddie Furlong was in Terminator 2. They have "attitude." The 90s were the "Attitude Era" or the "Era of Extreme," after all. It's not my favourite of the live action Disney films, but it's not half bad either. That's what I love about movies like My Girl and The Sandlot. The kids aren't sanitized. They're believable and there's a sincerity in what they say and do. The Sandlot had little boys being sexist - "You play ball like a girl!" But little boys are sexist. You're not supposed to like girls if you're a little boy. As long as it's not totally abusive, fine. You just hope they grow out of it with maturity and education. Kids are stupid. It's where they're at in their development and that's just how it is. As long as they're not over the top or physically violent, I don't have a problem with it, as long as they can look back on it as adults and go, "Weren't we something when we thought this, this and this were true? Glad we don't think the say way now!" Kids are supposed to be kids, and adults are supposed to be adults. The difference is, adults are supposed to know better. Kids aren't. You only learn by making mistakes and trying something, within reason. I prefer Jodie's performance in Silence of the Lambs, but here she's a believable kid, which works for her, both when she's in her own body and when she's switched with her mom. Adults have power. Kids don't. So I'm less concerned when a kid acts up, because they can be much more easily corrected. If you're 30 and you still think the same stupid things you did when you were 10 years old, then we could have a serious problem. Kids will be kids. Like George Carlin once said, "You want to help your children? Leave them the f alone!" If you haven't see it, My Girl is a film I think you would love. It's funny, tragic and believable. The little girl, Vada, played by Anna Chlumsky is fantastic and I'm not ashamed to say the kid who was the same age as her at the time had a bit of a crush. Her character was funny, tragic, flawed and scarred, yet resourceful and smart for her age. She was an "old soul." Still one of my favourite movies. The soundtrack is amazing and Dan Aykroyd, Macauley Culkin and Jamie Lee Curtis are great in it too. It's my favourite Macauley movie.

I remember watching this movie and it was one of the best movies back in the 70s I wish you could play the whole movie for us without interruptions

This movie is really old and I wish they would show it on KZread I loved it as a child

I never understood the hate for younger siblings I have 3 younger sisters and we get along fine we love each other but was common in highschool for kids to to complain and hate their younger siblings. I love them especially because I’m 12 years older then them so I can buy them the toys they want and be the fun big brother

The guy who played Boris also played Jimmy Olsen in the Superman movies (with Christopher Reeve.)

Yes I grew up with older Disney films and love them but honestly I never seen this version before or any other pre 80s Jodie Foster movies

Yes, I vote for you to watch the remake. I like to do that, myself. For instance, the original and remake of both The Parent Trap and Sabrina are all good versions (imo). Fun!

You should react to both Parent Traps. The 70s were great time to be a kid!

Well, I can react to the original one there because the 1998 version with Lindsay Lohan was my FAVORITE as a child (I wanted to be a twin so bad), and I don't know if I can remember too much of it to be able to be an authentic "first time watching" kind of reaction from me.

@@katreacts6843 both versions are great, though different. Once you swallow the two parents splitting up infants BS, the stories are great fun. Hayley Mills is a wonderful actress, who just turned 76! She played the girls' roles very well. Maureen O'Hara, the mother in the original, was one of the most beautiful women in movies, IMO.

Another film along the same wavelength is Like Father,Like Son.

Love the marching band scene...I was a school band director. I've seen all kind o f screw ups happening in marching band routines lol. there are a lot of iconic actors and character actors in this movie, you should look them up. For example, the maid played by Patsy Kelly who was a popular comedic actress from as far back as the 1930's on film and later TV. Kaye Ballard , the coach, and comedienne Ruth Buzzi, the opposing coach. Quite a few others...

The 2003 version is SO much, better. Definitely recommend you do the Lindsay Lohan one, as well!

I LOVE this film, and the 2003 remake with Jamie Lee Curtis & Lindsay Lohan is so easily amazing, too!

the LA river , concrete filmed many movies

Most people consider the remake better on account of the time period allowing for more humour. Women being in the workplace was more universally normal in 2003 which makes way more sense for the younger character to be thrown into in a body swap story - that and the 2000's era has funnier cringe to look back at and laugh.

There is like 3 different versions of this at least, also one from the 90s.

Make that 4 versions, Disney Channel did a musical version a few years ago.

Jodie Foster was a HUGE child Star in the 70’s when this came out (back when she was only “tomboyish” 🙄 )- She had also been a preteen hooker in Taxi Driver, a 20’s singer in Bugsy Malone, Becky Thatcher in probably the best movie version of Tom Sawyer, and even taken over Tatum O’Neal’s role in the TV version of Paper Moon. She also played a NY teen in an English mansion in Disney’s “Candleshoe”, also worth a D+ watch.

I love this movie!!!

Highschool In the uk all we have is as a extra curricular activity was football/soccer when I was at highschool anyways that was in 2010. But when I moved to Dubai in 2014 it was a lot like America we lots of sports and band like in the movie I was on the wrestling team and basically you would socialise with the people who were in your sports team. As we would sometimes celebrate after winning matches

I will see the original soon to compare.

it's field hockey, i'm pretty sure it isn't normally that violent, lol

You usually don’t get extra credit for extracurricular activities. I wish we had but I’ve never heard of that being a thing. As for having time to yourself that was a big problem for many of my peers when I was in high school. They were over scheduled. Between school, after school clubs, sports, volunteer work, part-time job, chores, drivers Ed, SAT prep, homework, and projects, there was barely time to sleep never mind read and have hobbies.

Love the 70s movie’s

Boris from Superman Jimmy Olsen and Bambi from TV show Dallas

❤ This Jodie foster original film is Fun, Entertaining and an enjoyable classic. Iove this movie and the Lindsay Lohan version is really good too. I enjoy both different versions, thou their are 4 or 5 different versions, I can remember 2 different made for tv movies too.

The washing machine disaster bit...stolen right out of the I Love Lucy playbook...I have seen this on TV before around 1981 or so. The other child star quite popular at the time was Tatum O' Neal in Paper Moon 1973 and The Bad News Bears [original film] from 1976. And maybe Brook Shields...

i just saw FF 2003 version I liked it

The problem with teen girls is parents are more protective and are scared of them getting pregnant. As a guy my parents only cared about my grades and how I dressed but they didn’t care if I went out late or where I was. So when I became 18 the craziest things I did was get a tattoo, braided my hair with shaved patterns into it and dress ghetto like rappers ect

the Lindsay Lohan version is also really good

Cool idea, u You can do the same with parent trap. After that how about on the same line as freaky friday tray it's a boy girl thing.
