Why watch?
“Clueless is one of the more timeless teen comedies of it’s era for a range of reasons, not least the charming and funny performances by it’s incredible cast including Alicia Silverstone, Paul Rudd and the brilliant Brittany Murphy who sadly passed away in 2009 before really even getting started as a performer. However, setting aside the practical elements (cast, soundtrack, script, etc) Clueless has my heart because it is fundamentally good-hearted film. It prods and makes fun of its characters but always with kindness because it believes they are fundamentally kind characters. It’s a gentle and loving world which, 30 years on, continues to make it an incredibly fun place to spend a couple of hours.”
