The Parent Trap is just one of those movies: a feel-good, nostalgic film that reminds you of all the things you started doing because of it. With the recent cast reunion (22 years later!), I couldn't help but rewatch the 1998 classic. The cast is truly remarkable, but I have a hot take when it comes to the characters: Chessy is the real hero of The Parent Trap.
Played by Lisa Ann Walter, who said during the reunion that she felt the part was "written for her," Chessy is the heart of the film. Even though she doesn't make her first fabulous appearance until 49 minutes into the movie, you can't help but also feel so loved as she comes screaming out of the Parker California vineyard saying, "Hello, gorgeous!" and hugging Hallie like a daughter. She encourages her adventures and automatically offers up cornbread and chili, Hallie's "favorite food in the world.
