I thought this was a very good film but I ordered it by mistake! i thought it was a Aussie or New Zealand film about a girl who goes to private school and has a lot of ups and downs in the film she is called Laura Tweeds Bottom or something like that and has black springy curly hair? does anyone know what this film is called?
