As the text says itself, Charlotte plays "Olivia", a newspaper delivery girl who wants to get into the Music Business.
The movie is Charlotte's acting debut, particularly as the star, and is directed by Craig Ferguson who also stars as her Father - more on this as we and YOU get it!
SINGER Charlotte Church has been getting acting tips from Catherine Zeta Jones.
The 16-year-old from Cardiff is hoping to follow teen singers such as Britney Spears and Samantha Mumba into film roles and called on showbiz pal Catherine Zeta Jones, 33, who comes from Swansea, for advice on how to be a hit in Hollywood.
Her debut film The Family Business, which has scenes filmed in Cardiff and London, is due out in March. In the film, directed by Craig Ferguson, Charlotte plays the estranged daughter of an ageing 1980s pop star.
She said, "I've had acting tips from Catherine Zeta Jones. Craig told me I hardly need any expression because I've got quite an expressive face anyway. My eyebrows dance up and down and my mouth goes all funny so he said I don't need to overdo it."
NESTLED amid the snow-dusted slopes of the winter playground for the rich and famous, the debut film of Welsh singing star Charlotte Church was screened.
In a theatre built in 1892, critics and stars braved the afternoon snow to see the film, which opened the annual US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado.
Though Charlotte, who turned 17 last week, was not at the premiere of I'll Be There, director and star Craig Ferguson presented the film.
The movie, I'll Be There, based loosely on the life of actress Liv Tyler, is due to be officially premiered in London in June and be released in America in July.
But two ardent Charlotte fans, who could not wait that long to see the film, travelled across America to be at the screening late on Wednesday night.
Steve MacDonald, from Kansas and Kevin Bedingfield, from Denver, were some of the first people to see the final version of the film and were fulsome in their praise of the star's acting ability.
Steve has been a fan of Charlotte since June 1999, after he saw a performance of "Voice of an Angel in Concert" and has seen her in concert four times since then.
Kevin accidently heard the star as he changed channels in 2001 and consequently bought all her albums.
Both fans are members of website fanclub, www.charlottechurchfans.com.
After viewing the film at the festival, they said, "I'll Be There wastes no time impressing on us the fact that Charlotte Church's character Olivia has a spectacular gift for singing and that the man who fathered her is an hilarious spectacle of rock-star decadence and instability."
In the film, Olivia is a mopedriding teenager, who delivers the South Wales Echo, but her mother, Rebecca, played by Jemma Redgrave, wants her to go into the family business, hairdressing.
The film was originally to be called The Family Business but has now taken the name of one of the title tracks, sung by Charlotte.
The two fans were impressed by Charlotte's ease in front of the camera, despite her lack of acting experience.
They said, "In the opening sequences Charlotte looks extremely natural and unaffected. You do not think she is being anything but Rebecca's daughter. Even her vocal inflections seem intuitively modelled on Redgrave rather than her own."
Her onscreen character mirrors her career, by sharing a love and a talent for singing. But her ability is not realised until she finds out that her real father, is an '80s rock star, Paul Kerr, played by Craig Ferguson.
The film seems to be life imitating art in some aspects. Steve said, "She begins to redefine herself along more independent lines, most noticeably going from dowdy skirts to stylish jeans, a new look which even turns the head of her father's sleazy manager who initially takes her for one of his girlfriends."
Ferguson, who wrote Brit comedy Saving Grace, not only stars in the film but wrote and directed it.
Both Kevin and Steve said he saved the laughs for himself.
Kevin described Ferguson as "a witty comic with a semi-rubber face and impeccable timing".
He said, "He successfully draws her father as not just a self-absorbed, self-pitying loose cannon, but an eminently likeable one whose former greatness as a musician is fully believable."
Summing up the movie the fans said, "I'll Be There focuses equally on Kerr's redemption from lost soul to responsible father figure and Olivia's discovering her true identity as an artist in-the-making.
"Charlotte is not a laugh-getter in this film nor is she, or anyone else, meant to be; Ferguson has a virtual monopoly on the humour, not that anyone is complaining.
"Fans of Charlotte Church will be brimming with pride (and likely wiping away a tear).
"I'll Be There marks the directorial debut of Ferguson and the film debut of Church. Without question they have acquitted themselves brilliantly."

SINGING sensation Charlotte Church's debut film has won its first award, before it has been officially released.
The film, I'll Be There, which opened the US Comedy Arts Festival, in Aspen, Colorado, won the Audience Award for Best Feature.
Though UK and US audiences have yet to see the film it joined some of last years' massive comedy hits such as My Big Fat Greek Wedding and About A Boy in winning awards late on Saturday night.
Charlotte stars as a young paper girl, Olivia, with a love for singing who learns that her father is not actually dead but is a alcoholic 80s' rocker.
The film starring writer, director and actor Craig Ferguson and a member of the Redgrave dynasty, Jemma, was chosen by the audience, who attended the week-long festival.
The film premiered in a theatre, built in 1982, to a group of 200 people but as Charlotte was not at the festival, her on-screen father was there to accept the film's award.
The official premiere is set to be in London in June, with an American release of July.
Two ardent fans, Steve MacDonald and Kevin Bedingfield travelled to Aspen to see the film and exclusively reviewed it for The Western Mail.
Speaking about the film the fans said, "Charlotte is not a laugh-getter in this film nor is she, or anyone else, meant to be; Ferguson has a virtual monopoly on the humour, not that anyone is complaining.
"Fans of Charlotte Church will be brimming with pride (and likely wiping away a tear).
"I'll Be There marks the directorial debut of Ferguson and the film debut of Church. Without question they have acquitted themselves brilliantly."
This year is the first time in the festival's nine year history for the award ceremony.
The awards were chosen by an executive committee which included Hollywood heavyweights Steve Martin, Billy Crystal, Barry Levinson, Bobby and Peter Farrelly.
The audience award for best feature was chosen from a range of films which appeared in the festival, alongside the stand-up comedians and theatre shows.
