Same here. Didn't even bother watching the Lindsay Lohan version.. Don't want to sully the memory of watching it every day on my school holidays at my grandparents. Great memories. I recently had my son watch The Labyrinth. He loved it! I'm going to find a video of The Parent Trap so he can watch that too.
Wow very interesting. I never knew they also used a twin instead of being all special effects, but I suspected they did. Nice to really see and hear her explaining about that classic Hayley Mills movie and her substantial part in it. A shame she didn't get credit for her role in the movie, but at least we now know thanks to this video. She's pretty like Hayley and really looked a lot like her, so much so that I never noticed the difference before. Thanks for sharing!
How lovely. She is a star! This was the first film I was ever taken to see. The Parent Trap in London in 1961. I was just 4 years old. I absolutely LOVED it & a few years later started a Hayley Mills scrapbook. I even wrote her a fan letter in 1968 & she kindly sent me a signed photo. I had no knowledge of Susan Henning until I came across this today. Thank you for posting it.
What a lovely woman. Shame that it was customary back then to fudge credit (the studio wanting to sell 2 "Hayley Mills" actresses smh) under the guise of film bankability, but great that she had a wonderful experience and met Walt himself.
The only time Susan Henning's face was shown during close-up in the film was after Miss Inch yelled out "You little wretches!" and the twins look up at her. Susan's face was totally obscured with food all over her nose and mouth and she still had short hair at the time, and also, Susan's eye color seemed more different than Hayley's.
I find if you don't look too hard, you can't see much difference. Just switch off your brain and you literally see two Hayleys! Even with cake all over her face, Susan H looks beautiful! ❤
I noticed the other girl when they're lying on the floor with cake on their faces in camp, after fighting. There was something different about one of them. I was twelve, but still spotted it. This was very sweet; fun to see her story!! :-)
What a wonderful story!! I had no idea. This was and is one of my very favorite movies. I’m 65 and still love it. Thanks for telling your story. So interesting and what a great experience it must’ve been.
I noticed the other girl, when they're waiting for their rides after camp. The one waves at the other, and you can see the one in yellow is the double. Still the best movie!
This was one of my all-time favorite movies as a kid and one I still love today. I did not believe my mom for YEARS that two people played the twins. (Not doubting Susan in this video, I was just a stubborn kid.) I'm glad that she was recognized for all of the hard work in matching with Hayley!
They did that with Josh Pence in The Social Network, who played Armie Hammer's twin, with Armie's face superimposed on him. He just shows up as himself for a couple of lines.
WoW 58 years have gone by since the original Parent Trap was shown. Through the power of You-Tube and the video clips that have been sent in we now know who was the stand in for Haley Mills. We also can see how in those days split screen were created. Now it's done by CG. Thanks....
Yes what a beautiful story. I myself was born in 1967. I remember seeing the movie on TV when I was maybe seven or eight. It was always one of my favorites even to this day LOL. So it's so exciting to learn about some of the secrets behind that beautiful movie.
What got me started in wondering who the twin was was when I saw you're face four times in the movie, when the twins where fighting at the party, when one of you looked back and said "California", when you guys said "bye" before Sharon got into the limo when you were in the yellow dress, and when you both were in the water while on the camping trip. After that I kept seein more
Such a cool story. You can tell for an actress that wasn't billed on the movie, she's immensely proud and should be! She did an exceptional job. Te 1961 Parent Trap is one of my favorite movies! I loved Brian Keith and Maureen O'Hara is stunning in the movie. I gew up with Haley Mills as one of myfavorite actresses. I knew Haley had all the speaking parts and was featured as both twins, but the movie wouldn't have been as good as it was if there hadn't been someone to fill in! I love the award they gave her, it's so unique! I would have loved an opportunity like that! I think any girl would. I wasn't born yet when The Parent Trap was filmed. I wasn't born till 66, but the first film I saw at year end school assembly was this movie. I was in Kindergarten, lol! I was totally mesmerized. A few years later when my parents divorced, I lived with my Dad. Rare back then. I remember going to summer camp ad thinking my life could have mirrored the situation! Except I wasn't a twin, I had three brothers who lived with my Mom, I was the eldest child. I remember coming home from camp to find a stranger woman with my Dad. I remembered the movie and thought oh brother! My step mom and I got along great though. Ahhh the memories!
I always thought, who's the double in the camp departure scene when Suzan gets picked up and the two wave at each other. You can see Sharon and Susan are different.
Susan Henning's face is visible more often than I realized before seeing this. The only shot I was sure you could see her was where her face is covered in chocolate cake.
I don't think she looks like Hayley at all really, but with the wigs and they didn't do a face front close-up, you can see how it worked. She's pretty and aged really well.
As a German I grew up with original based on Erich Kästners novel and that Disney version with Haley Mills. Nice to see the „other twin“. Wonderful memories.
Great that Hayley MIlls' body double tells her story here. It is something I have been wondering about. There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes and there are people who 's side of the story you don't hear about, or much. I still would like to know what Susan Henning went on to do. Did she continue to work in show business? If not, what career did she pursue? After all she was a teenager when she filmed the Parent Trap.
Bordello scene of ELVIS 1968 special.. one scene was cut completely of the two, Steve Bender saying it was way to steamy, to say it nicely, for TV viewing. You can find the cut scene on UA-cam. 🫣🤭
Susan is the blonde in Elvis’s comeback special during the brothel scene, they had about a year long affair. She also makes an appearance in his movie Live A Little Love A Little, as a model dressed as a mermaid.
This was so interesting. What year was Susan Hening allowed to reveal the secret? Was there something on the contract about it? Did she get many other roles afterward? Was she mainly an actress all her life?
Susan is probably most notable for her part in ELVIS'S 1968 Comeback Special. The Bordello scene, with ELVIS, also, ELVIS'S movie, Live a little, Love a Little, she played the mermaid, 1968. 7-27-22
LOL.. that's a face that looks like her 'nose is out of joint.' ;) Could have been one of those unfortunate snapshot moments though, when you haven't got your smile for the camera yet, OR - being about 15 - when you're usually very self-preoccupied, somewhat insecure, and selfish, she was a bit envious and upset that Susan got a special award at that wrap party. I'm sure as time went on (if that was the case) she quickly realized she was "A Star" and this girl went home with many memories and her wonderful award, but no transparency whatsoever for making an entire Disney hit! Those were the days when Disney movies ruled. It's a hard age when you're a young teen; Hayley was used to being the one "made over," I"m sure. In every interview or article I've ever read of Hayley, she is also a very lovely and gracious person, very aware of other's feelings and goes out of her way to be kind and give other's recognition.
The third example was just her cabin-mate helping her with the prank. That wasn't supposed to be a double/Susan. Sharon and the other camper were cutting Susan's dress.
Correct. I noted in the video information that it was Ursula played by Lynette Winter. You'd think someone at Disney would have caught it before committing it to DVD.
You can still tell though. Also when she's putting up pictures in the cabin, and she's looking right at the camera when she's swimming in the lake on the camping trip.
a lovely story- a wonderful film- wonderful girls- good job both beautiful susan and healy - even now miss hennings is a wonderf. woman- no doubt elvis was attracted by her
Me too; the original one cannot be beat. The story, the cast; that was a perfect Disney film with all the elements in line to make it timeless and classic.
I know right?! My younger sister doesn't think so though, because she's not really into old movies, but I am A LOT. She likes the newer version with Lindsay Lohan, and I like it too but I love the original better. Why can't people just stop remaking original movies, and turning them into complete trash?! They remake original horror movies as well, it's terrible!!!!
![Tour the Parent Trap House, Part 1 Main Floor [CG Tour]](/img/n.gif)
I ( STILL! ) love the original Parent Trap
They don’t make movies like this anymore.
still!
Yes! I agree.

Absolutely heartwarming...and Susan had never felt left out when shooting.

In many parts it was split screen with Haley on both sides. Susan was only on camera when her face wasn't showing.
@@3DJapan Hayley
thank you for all your contributions. I was born in 83'... im almost 40 now I you did a terrific job
How wonderful Susan that you were recognized and you and Haley stayed in touch with each other for all these years.

Hayley

they used mirrors susan had a double and hayley had a double

I think you're right. You can see her face from farther away in the lake, or when she's putting up magazine pictures on the wall.
I find if you don't look too hard, you can't see much difference. Just switch off your brain and you literally see two Hayleys! Even with cake all over her face, Susan H looks beautiful! ❤
Such a sweet story.What wonderful memories you will have forever.Thanks😇😇
Very interesting. A well deserved duck award. So glad she and Hayley are still friends after all these years.
I like how she calls Walt Disney uncle Walt 😁
Walt Disney was Uncle Wat to everyone (child) he worked with. He was a very kind, caring, loving and generous man.

Yes, their eye-color differed, starkly. One was a brighter blue.

Thank you for the video. I grew up watching this "Parent Trap". Very interesting.
Aww! They ought have written a quick cameo for her to be at least 10 seconds, that way she could have appeared in the credits.
They did that with Josh Pence in The Social Network, who played Armie Hammer's twin, with Armie's face superimposed on him. He just shows up as himself for a couple of lines.
She is very gracious and uplifting in this interview.
WoW 58 years have gone by since the original Parent Trap was shown.

We also can see how in those days split screen were created. Now it's done by CG.

i have always wondered who the girl was that played opposite Haley Mills. thank you for uploading this.
Such a positive n nice lady.i was smiling the entire time.i was 8 when i first saw the movie.seen it at least 20 times since then😀
She is extremely humble! Respect and love from Bangladesh :)
No, she's having delusions of grandeur. Don't be facetious.
@@ToyotaGuy1971Man shut up. She’s amazing.
@@OmarThePuppy Get a grip.
Lovely story, never knew about this actress. Thank you.
she still resembles Hayley Mills, they could definitely be sisters
I strongly disagree. I think she's pretentious.
I knew they had used split screen technology but never knew a lookalike was used as well. Watched this movie over and over as a kid and young teen
was the parent trap lindsey lohan version filmed in the same camp same locations the parent trap 1961 version was filmed?
I cried at the end of this.
Yes what a beautiful story. I myself was born in 1967. I remember seeing the movie on TV when I was maybe seven or eight. It was always one of my favorites even to this day LOL. So it's so exciting to learn about some of the secrets behind that beautiful movie.

Loved the movie ! I learned something ! Both were lovely then and now !
One gem of a movie that I am proud to have in my movie collection.
That was an amazing video.
Wow! Thank you so much for this

I’ve always wondered how the twin thing was done. Amazing. I love Hayley Mills.

I like her nose.. Hers is nicer than Hayley’s imo.
Pretty cool! I remember that movie. Really enjoyed it as s kid! Thanks for your “seen” but “unseen” performance Susan!
I always wondered who was the back of Hayley, how nice, I love it.
As a German I grew up with original based on Erich Kästners novel and that Disney version with Haley Mills. Nice to see the „other twin“. Wonderful memories.

She was in the Elvis come back special 1968

ELVIS 1968 special..
one scene was cut

saying it was way to steamy, to say it nicely, for TV viewing. You can find the cut scene

What a wonderful woman.
She seems super sweet.
Lovely, elegant and beautiful lady. I always loved this movie as a kid and had a crush on Haley. But her double is even prettier.
I never knew this, how interesting.
Me 2
I lead hikes up where this was filmed, at bluff lake reserve. High desert tree.
My favorite movie as a child.
That's a wonderful story.
So nice that they got along
Susan is the blonde in Elvis’s comeback special during the brothel scene, they had about a year long affair. She also makes an appearance in his movie Live A Little Love A Little, as a model dressed as a mermaid.
Susan Henning has a ELVIS connection..
1968
Thank you for showing me the other twin Susan. I like her.
I love the parent trap in the movie. I watched it many times and I couldn’t count it. lol She did great job and her award was so special for her.
PS. 0:05 isn't the twin, it's the friend. They are cutting the dress of the twin, but the arrow is toward another actress.
Yep.
I noted in the video description that it's her cabin-mate Ursula.
I love this movie
It’s a shame what Disney has become. RIP Walt.
This was so interesting. What year was Susan Hening allowed to reveal the secret? Was there something on the contract about it? Did she get many other roles afterward? Was she mainly an actress all her life?
Never knew they used a stand in most of the scenes
Susan is probably most notable for her part
in ELVIS'S 1968 Comeback Special. The Bordello scene, with ELVIS, also, ELVIS'S
movie, Live a little, Love a Little, she played the mermaid, 1968. 7-27-22
I wish I could be an actor in the parent trap
your voice just so sweet
AWESOME!!!!!
Hey atleast they gave her credit (Susan and Sharon) one of the characters has the same name as her (Idk maybe it’s just a coincidence)
I wonder what all else Disney has lied to us about.
My second favaorite Disney movie.
To keep it simpler, they should've just had her play Susan all the time, they looked so much alike it would've worked, like the Olsen twins.
You must give me the number of your oculist.
Lovely!
11 years ago and I just saw this LOL great to know how and who the other twin was in group shots
I always wondered who the "twin" was! thanks
What a gracious and lovely woman! Conversely, why does Haley Mills look decidedly displeased (jealous even?) in the photo at the 5:48 minute marker?
LOL.. that's a face that looks like her 'nose is out of joint.' ;) Could have been one of those unfortunate snapshot moments though, when you haven't got your smile for the camera yet, OR - being about 15 - when you're usually very self-preoccupied, somewhat insecure, and selfish, she was a bit envious and upset that Susan got a special award at that wrap party.

Eidann63 true or it could be something unrelated and she’s mad at incident that occurred moments before the photo was taken
Maybe she's tired ....? Actresses can have bad days too!
She might not have been. She may have just been not ready when the picture was taken.
Hayley Mills has been very gracious and complimentary of her in interviews.
Hayley mills as Susan and sharon

@@BubbaCoop Yes. Interesting.
When the twins had cake in their face in that one scene u could see Susan’s face but u couldn’t tell because there was cake on it
You can still tell though.
Also when she's putting up pictures in the cabin, and she's looking right at the camera when she's swimming in the lake on the camping trip.
BubbaCoop yea
Is she the girl in Elvis 68 comeback special?
Yes! I believe she even dated Elvis for a time
Hayley had a big crush on Elvis and wrote him a fan letter that she said he never responded back. So I guess Susan won out. Lol
How cool!!!
I want the whole movie please
I don't do that. It's a copyrighted movie. You can buy it on DVD or get it on Disney plus.
@@BubbaCoop ok thank you
I'm glad I know you were the other twin .
Wow. What en experience
fascinating
One of my all time favorite movies! Great acting. The re-do wasn’t good at all
Still she should have been given credit. Why not?
What a bummer! Her name wasn’t even on the credits? Awful.
WInter is well knoiwn, as Larue form Gidget.
Haley Mills played both parts. I thought. A lady named Susan, wow.
Hayley play both parts when they faced the camera - Sue played both parts - usually when facing away from the camera
The Patti Duke Show
was the same concept
Now i kinda wanna know who's Lindsey Lohan's double as well.
So cute twins ever
Wow I thought they were both Haley too!
a lovely story- a wonderful film- wonderful girls- good job both beautiful susan and healy - even now miss hennings is a wonderf. woman- no doubt elvis was attracted by her
I always wondered how they did the fight scene. Figured they must have had someone else in it that was around the same size.
Who's the twin? There are no twins.
Susan and Sharon are twins.
The video is about Who's [playing] the Twin?
Nice lady! Or rather, a nice girl... grown up.
Wow😃
👍 👍
The 1960 version is a classic. The remake is garbage, and is a reflection of our times, where trashiness is IN for some reason.

“They” kept in touch” what????
it took them showing walt disney's photo for me to realise uncle walt was the Disney man ahahaha
Pena que não é dublado em português
Yo pensaba que hayley mills tenia una hermana jemela
Haley has a sister but not a twin
They looked enough alike they could have been fraternal. Why not ?
