FIRST DAUGHTER (2004)

Cast

Plot

Samantha Mackenzie is looking forward to college, but she wishes that she could drive up to the campus in a beat-up VW with a beer hidden in her cooler. Instead she gets a police escort and is serenaded by "Hail To The Chief". Being the president's daughter and out of the house for the time, Sam wants to party and study like a normal college kid but when the tabloids are laying in wait, scandal finds her. She shrugs off her secret service detail to hang out with her roomate as well as her new crush, James. But her parents are starting a new campaign and Sam's back in the public eye straining her new relationship especially when her beau reveals an identity of his own. Marketed for a younger crowd, this gives a pretty weak portrayal of college life but as far as teen romances go it ain't half bad if only because it throws a bit of a curveball at the end. And Katie Holmes is "so hot right now."
