## Synopsis

Twins is a 1988 American buddy comedy film directed by Ivan Reitman and written by William Davies, William Osborne, Timothy Harris, and Herschel Weingrod. The film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito as Julius and Vincent Benedict, twin brothers created as a result of a secret genetic experiment, who were separated at birth and raised in drastically different circumstances. Also starring Kelly Preston, Chloe Webb and Bonnie Bartlett, the story follows the naïve but physically imposing Julius as he travels to Los Angeles to find Vincent, a cynical small-time crook, and the two set out on a journey to uncover the truth about their origins and locate their long-lost mother.
