Find the DVD: Our Lips Are Sealed — Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen DVD (paid link)
For the Olsen film, look for Our Lips Are Sealed starring Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and directed by Craig Shapiro. Its Australian adventure also appeared as a tie-in paperback. Checking the creator, year, and format together helps you choose the film or book you actually want.
Which Our Lips Are Sealed?
The Australian Classification record identifies a 2000 production directed by Craig Shapiro and submitted for DVD by Warner Home Video. The record’s classification date is January 2, 2003: production and later home-video classification are different dates.
The DVD’s product description presents a comedy in which the sisters’ characters repeatedly reveal their supposed hiding places before the family moves to Australia. Travel, school friendships, romance, and pursuit provide the setup. The witness-protection premise belongs to the film’s comic fantasy.
Use the actresses’ names as identity checks without treating the characters’ adventures as events in their lives. For a first viewing, the setup is enough; leave the resolution for the film.
The paperback is a film tie-in
The Library of Congress catalog record identifies Our Lips Are Sealed as a novelization by Eliza Willard, published by HarperEntertainment in 2001, based on the teleplay by Elizabeth Kruger and Craig Shapiro. Its ISBN-10 is 0061066656, and its ISBN-13 is 9780061066658.

| Item | Useful identifiers | What you receive |
|---|---|---|
| The film | 2000 production; Craig Shapiro; Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen | An audiovisual story; choose DVD explicitly if you want a disc. |
| The tie-in paperback | Eliza Willard; HarperEntertainment; 2001; ISBN 0061066656 | A prose adaptation associated with the film. |
| A similarly titled result | Check author, performers, and format | A matching title alone can lead to a different book, recording, or film. |
A tie-in gives readers a chance to compare storytelling tools. After watching, choose a short passage from the book and ask how it supplies information the film can show through expressions, locations, or editing. Compare that specific passage with the corresponding scene before deciding how closely the adaptation follows the film.
Choose for the audience and the occasion
The Australian DVD record classifies the film PG for low-level violence. That is an Australian classification for that submission. Use the rating and content information relevant to your own territory and the copy you are considering.
The clearest reason to choose the film is an interest in the Olsen sisters’ screen comedies or a light travel-adventure premise. For a family conversation, focus on the difference between fitting in and choosing friends: what behavior wins attention, and what behavior earns trust? Ask viewers to point to a moment that supports their answer.
If you are revisiting it with someone who has never seen it, share the premise and let them form their own response. Familiarity and nostalgia can be part of a shared viewing without requiring everyone to value the same scenes.
