It Takes Two (1995)
from Growing Up Millennial · host Adri Wilson & Helene Karp
Here's the episode that was never supposed to happen: It Takes Two (1995). A departure from our Dualstar Entertainment Produced-Journey, this film starring the Olsen Twins is a throwback for the ages. Adri is joined by our resident White Man from our White Man's Corner, Seth, to talk about the shenanigans two identical strangers get up to when their world is threatened by adoption to what amounts to be a workhouse (Amanda) and an evil stepmother (Allysa). They get into some prince and the pauper-like scenarios. Like in Billboard Dad (1998), the girls hatch a matchmaking plan that they hope will solve all their dilemmas. The lucky pair? Roger Callaway (Steve Guttenberg), a communications billionaire father to Allysa, and Diane (Kristie Alley, RIP), Amanda's case worker at the orphanage. Did this 1995 movie manage to charm us?
