Amy Heckerling

Clueless Amy Heckerling

Amy Heckerling's hugely successful high school comedy is a modern day version of Jane Austen's 'Emma'. Cher (Alicia Silverstone) is a precocious teenager, acutely aware of her own superior social standing in relation to some of her classmates. She is just as sure of her position of authority at home as well, until her stepbrother arrives to disrupt the status quo.

Her poise is somewhat disturbed at school, too, when a new classmate stirs an emotion in her she has never felt before: love!
