Trading lives with another person may be next to impossible but many a hilarious motion picture has been made with this comedic premise. Here are some suggestions for just a few that you may love. The meaning of the storyline always seems to be consideration and empathy for the other person and that can be a good thing.
From 1987 and featuring Dudley Moore, Kirk Cameron, "Like Father, Like Son". A heart surgeon unintentionally sprinkles an old Indian concoction into his Bloody Mary and presto, he and his laid-back son have switched identities. Cast includes Dudley Moore, Kirk Cameron, Margaret Colin, Catherine Hicks, Patrick O'Neal, and Sean Astin.
The father is a heart doctor who happens to be so absorbed in his own work that he pays no attention to the problems the son is having with school and social activities. The trading places with each other leads to bizarrely hilarious difficulties at work and at school but each receives insight into the others life.
In a parallel plot the film "Freaky Friday" from 2003 has Jamie Lee Curtis playing a mother who swaps lives with Lindsay Lohan who plays her 15 years old daughter. The mom wants more support for her upcoming wedding to her fiancé and the daughter wants her mom to support her musical dreams with her rock band.
A Chinese restaurant and a magic fortune cookie on Thursday evening bring about a Friday to remember. But the wedding ceremony is on Saturday. Will they be traded back in time? Starring Jamie Lee Curtis, Lindsay Lohan and Mark Harmon.
And lastly, a different form of identity swap film, "Mrs. Doubtfire" is a warmhearted and satisfying comedy about a free spirited husband and father, who gets a separation after fourteen years. Since he can't bear the idea of being away from his children he camouflages himself as a old-fashioned British housekeeper and gets hired as the kid's nanny.
Robin Williams stars as the dad and of course, Mrs. Doubtfire, Sally Fields is the mom and Lisa Jakob, Matthew Lawrence and Mara Wilson play the children. Mrs. Doubtfire is a superb family motion picture from 1993 that should not be forgotten.
