This
classic story of mother (Jamie Lee Curtis) and daughter
(Lindsay Lohan) body switch is a remake of the 1976 film
starring a young Jodie Foster. Here, Tess Coleman
(Curtis) is a widowed psychiatrist juggling her job and
family while planning her second marriage. She's getting no help from her teenage
daughter, Anna (Lohan), who disapproves of her mom's
wedding plans. Anna is a rebellious rocker, who plays
guitar in a garage band and would rather flirt with
older boys than listen to her uptight mother. One night,
while the warring mother and daughter are at a Chinese
restaurant, their fighting is overheard by an elderly
Chinese grandmother who curses their fortune cookie, so
that they wake up the next morning in each other's
bodies. An hysterical series of physical comedy routines
show how Tess and Anna are forced to live in each
other's bodies for the day, which happens to be the day
of Tess's rehearsal dinner and Anna's band audition for
the House of Blues. Anna (in Tess's body) goes for a
spin on the back of her boyfriend's motorcycle, and
gives her mom a makeover, and Tess (in Anna's body)
stands up to a high school teacher. Jamie Lee Curtis is
a comic genius in this challenging role, which requires
that she slouch, curse, and flirt like a teen!!
