Curtis praised Lohan's natural talent and on-screen presence while applauding her acting skills.

"Lindsay was as fluid as I was. If you look at 'The Parent Trap', she has a facility as an actor that is really impressive. It was a big job. It was a big production. And our relationship was very easy."
