LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Drew Barrymore, 49, recently shared a touching story on 'The Drew Barrymore Show', revealing that her daughter and Adam Sandler’s daughter enjoyed a cozy movie night watching '50 First Dates' together, as reported by People.

Despite her initial surprise, Drew Barrymore was moved by the girls’ choice, describing how they were “just so happy.” She continued, “Oh, but this is so sweet and wonderful,” capturing the joy of seeing their daughters bond over a cherished film from her and Adam Sandler’s career.
Although Barrymore didn’t specify which of her daughters participated, she shares daughters Olive, 12, and Frankie, 10, with her ex-husband Will Kopelman, while Sandler has two daughters, Sunny, 16, and Sadie, 18, with his wife Jackie.
For Barrymore, seeing their daughters embrace the film brought comfort and pride. She noted, “Because your kids will — a lot of the time — reject so many things about you that when you see them embracing something, you're like, 'Oh, how fantastic!'”
'50 First Dates', directed by Peter Segal, follows the unique love story between Lucy (Barrymore), who suffers from short-term memory loss, and Henry (Sandler), a marine veterinarian determined to win her heart every day. Barrymore also shared on her show in August that the film was originally intended as a drama set in Seattle, with a very different, bittersweet ending that was later revised.
The iconic rom-com marks the second film in Barrymore and Sandler’s collaborations, following 'The Wedding Singer' (1998) and preceding 'Blended' (2014). Their long-standing friendship has remained strong, with Barrymore recently describing their connection as rooted in “love, admiration, and humor.”
