What a Girl Wants
Single mom and teen daughter have a very special relationship (Mom: "I love you a million Swedish fish." Daughter: "I love you a million red M&M's"), but the daughter still hankers to meet the British father -- Lord Dashwood -- who doesn't even know she exists: "I feel like half of me is missing." Vincente Minnelli's The Reluctant Debutante updated for a post-debutante world: an entitlement fairy tale for the monstrously overconfident Amanda Bynes, symbol of American Youth. With Colin Firth, Kelly Preston, Jonathan Pryce, and Eileen Atkins; directed by Dennie Gordon. 2003.
