Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Clueless
Cher is looking to set up her new friend with an old friend, but he likes Cher instead. Ty decided she likes Josh, but then Cher does too. Cher worked so hard to make Ty cool so she doesn't want her to like Josh. Ty loves Travis after all.
--Traci, Resident Scholar

A comical satire about high school teens and the lives they live. Alicia Silverstone stars as Cher, a popular, rich californian who goes through various trials including making over a new girl at school, trying to make a cute guy fall for her only to learn he is gay, and finally finding true love.
--Samantha, Resident Scholar
