Television director
Andy Cadiff turns toward feature films to direct the romantic comedy Chasing
Liberty, which appears to be loosely based on the 1953 Audrey Hepburn classic
Roman Holiday. Mandy Moore stars as Anna Foster, the 18-year-old
daughter of President of the United States James Foster (Mark Harmon).
Anna has led quite a privileged life, but she has grown to resist the constant
presence of Secret Service agents getting in the way of her independence.
While on a family trip to Europe, Anna manages to get away from security
for a brief time. She inevitably falls into the romantic arms of British
boy Ben Calder (Matthew Goode), with whom she enjoys a fresh and clean
European vacation. Not wanting to ruin her fun, she doesn't tell him about
her upper-class social status. But, alas, Ben surprises her with a secret
identity of his own. Jeremy Piven and Annabella Sciorra play two Secret
Service agents. Caroline Goodall plays the wise, conventional First Lady.
