Big Business

Two sets of identical twins, separated at birth and unaware of each other's existence, are brought together by fate in New York City. One pair, the wealthy and sophisticated Sellers sisters, run a successful business empire, while the other, the down-to-earth and feisty McClaskey sisters, struggle to make ends meet in the corporate world. A series of hilarious mix-ups and mistaken identities ensue as the twins' lives become increasingly entangled, leading to unexpected romantic entanglements and business showdowns.

Big Business received a mixed but generally positive reception from critics. While some found the plot convoluted and reliant on slapstick, many praised the comedic performances, particularly from Bette Midler in dual roles, and the film's overall lighthearted and entertaining nature. It was considered a fun, if somewhat predictable, screwball comedy that successfully capitalized on the 'twin' trope.
