Clueless is 25 years old? AS IF!!!!

Twenty-five years ago this month, film history was made by two little words: “As if!”

Amy Heckerling’s Clueless, an updated take  on the Jane Austen novel “Emma,” starred a then unknown 18-year-old Alicia Silverstone as Cher Horowitz, a spoiled Beverly Hills teenager who ruled her high school with charm and obliviousness and introduced us to a whole new lingo. Co-stars Stacey Dash, Donald Faison, the late Brittany Murphy and Breckin Meyer were all key players, as was a then-unknown current-Ant-Man Paul Rudd as Cher’s step-brother and object of various crushes.

THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY DVD/BLU RAY IS AVAILABLE NOW

I caught up with Amy Heckerling from her home in New York via ZOOM to reminisce about the film.
