Dr. Tess Coleman (Curtis) and her fifteen-year-old daughter, Anna (Lohan), are having some pretty typical mother-daughter problems, like being polar opposites in their ideas about music, clothes and hairstyles. But they develop a not-so-typical problem when, one fateful Thursday night, they go to a Chinese restaurant and eat two fortune cookies that cast a switching spell on them. When they wake up the next morning, their Friday turns fantastically freaky when they realize that they�ve somehow switched bodies!

The film, released in 2003, was written by Heather Hach and Leslie Dixon, based on the novel by Mary Rodgers. It was directed by Mark Waters.
