Wild Child

Wild Child tells the comic story of sixteen year old Poppy (Emma Roberts), a rebellious American teenager who, after numerous warnings by her father (Aidan Quinn), is sent to a strict all-girls boarding school in the U.K. in an attempt to straighten out her behaviour. Under the watchful eye of the school's headmistress (Natasha Richardson) and surrounded by a new circle of friends, Poppy begrudgingly realizes her bad-girl behavior will only get her so far. But just because she must grow into a fine young lady doesn't mean this Wild Child won't be spending every waking hour shaking up a very proper system...
