Clueless: Senior Year: Volume 1

Product Information

Mona May did the costume designing for the film. The iconic plaid set worn by Cher Hororwitz in the film was "a nod to a Catholic schoolgirl uniform, but taken to another level and, turned designer." [22] Cher wore several designer clothes ranging from Azzedine Alaïa to Anna Sui. [23] The "underwear" Calvin Klein dress worn by Cher was actually designed by Sui who, at the time, was an emerging designer. [23] Calvin Klein was credited due to more brand recognition during the time.

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones performance, originally an outdoor event, had to be moved inside due to rain. [18] Paul Rudd bought everyone gifts after filming wrapped.

Tai/Harriet Smith: Tai, representative of the young, fair, and socially awkward Harriet Smith, is a newcomer to Bronson Alcott High School. Soon after, she is swept off her feet by both Cher and Dionne as they help her (unintentionally) become the most popular girl in school, to Cher's dismay. At the beginning of the film, Tai is attracted to Travis, a well-meaning, skateboard-riding, pot-smoking social recluse. Harriet is likewise attracted to humble farmer Robert Martin. Each is pressured by Cher/Emma to reject her lower-status potential lover, instead being pushed towards Elton/Mr Elton. Disastrously for Cher, Tai then falls for Josh. Emma is likewise horrified when Harriet falls in love with Mr. Knightley. In both cases, this leads to the heroine examining her own true feelings. Paramount announced in 2008 that they would release video games based on their films Clueless, Mean Girls, and Pretty in Pink. [75] The games were planned to be released on both the PC and the Nintendo DS, but only the PC games were released. Clueless on PC was released in 2009. [76] The cancelled Nintendo DS video game was found by YouTuber Ray Mona, [77] and a full play-through of the game was released on her channel on April 1, 2021. [78] [79] Twink Caplan: It was this unique part that somebody had to be so many things and had to have a little bit of a foot in another era. And these were young kids. I don’t think they really related that much to Frank Sinatra. … We couldn’t find it and then we finally found the guy to do it. And he was very sexy.

Just as Clueless remains more faithful to the social structures organizing Austen’s novels, it also works harder than most other adaptations to expand the film’s representation about its narrow social milieu. Tai, for instance, is the film’s example of peak diversity: “You guys got coke here?” to which Cher responds, “Yeah, this is America.” Emma’s narcissism is the central crux of, well, Emma. And it’s a narcissism that even the OG Emma finds increasingly hard to maintain. Austen’s novel contains a pivotal scene in which Emma is humbled after Mr. Knightley chides her for insulting Miss Bates (“How could she have been so brutal, so cruel to Miss Bates!”), but Clueless has no version of Miss Bates. Instead, Clueless’s equivalent scene that prompts Cher’s moral epiphany is actually when she insults her maid (“Lucy, you know I don’t speak Mexican!”) only to be chided by the film’s Mr. Knightley, Josh (Paul Rudd), who explains that “Lucy’s from El Salvador”:

Adam Schroeder: Donnie Faison came in and became one of our favorites for Murray. Terrence Howard also was one of the top contenders. After a great deal of soul searching, Cher realizes that her reaction to Tai's interest in Josh was so vehement precisely because she is interested in him herself. Because Josh is a bleeding-heart liberal, Cher makes rather awkward but heartfelt attempts to live a more meaningful life and show him that she has substantive priorities. She captains the school's Pismo Beach disaster relief effort. Eventually Cher and Josh admit their feelings for each other and kiss.An excellent, intensely readable and astonishing book. Who would have thought asset managers could do better by doing nothing? And goalies would save more penalties by NOT diving. Clueless is a movie that cunningly subverts the movie makeover to show how attractiveness is not only predicated on how conventionally good looking you are on the outside, but how good a person you are on the inside too. Though, it should also be noted, the film doesn’t say that wanting to look glamorous is a bad thing; come the end, Cher is still wearing designer outfits. Similarly, Legally Blonde (2001) allows its bombshell lead Elle Woods to retain her hyper-feminine style, even as she goes through an intellectual transformation while studying at Harvard Law School. Clueless is set to make its UK premiere in an exclusive two-week developmental run at the Churchill Theatre, Bromley. The musical will begin performances on 12 February 2024, with performances through 24 February 2024. Hawkins, Ashley (July 21, 2014). "5 Cult Classic Films That Never Get Old". Neon Tommy.
