Clueless (Reissue)

Jane Austen might never have imagined that her 1816 novel Emma could be turned into a fresh and satirical look at ultra-rich teenagers in a Beverly Hills high school. Cher (Alicia Silverstone) and Dionne (Stacey Dash) both named after great singers of the past that now do infomercials are pampered upper-class girls who care less about getting good grades than wearing the right clothes and being as popular as possible. But Cher who lives with her tough yet warm-hearted lawyer dad (Dan Hedaya) and hunky sensitive stepbrother (Paul Rudd) also has an innate urge to help those less fortunate - like the two introverted teachers she brings together (negotiating herself improved grades in the process) and new friend Tai (Brittany Murphy) who starts out a geek and ends up a Cher prodigy. Cher also possesses her own sensitive side and she is looking for the perfect boyfriend whom she ends up finding where she least expected.
