Clueless
i kept a running list of everything i love about this movie while i was watching. it is by no means comprehensive because there's so much more i could say, but it's long enough as it is.
- just a girl playing at the beginning
- the way alicia silverstone says, “ugh, as IF!”
- amber's “whatEVERRR”
- cranberries reference!!
- all the 90s la slang
- “the maudlin music of the university station” is fake plastic trees aka the best song to ever exist
- CHER’S HAIRRRRR
- cher and josh’s banter, bc paul rudd is so sexy in this role
- “duh, it’s like a famous quote!” “from where?” “cliffsnotes.”
- the way the score would get really dramatic in silly moments
- paul rudd’s interesting accent with crispy r’s
- “she could be a farmer in those clothes!”
- brittany murphy 💔💝
- the high school is named after louisa may alcott’s father
- the 90s-ness of it all – i need their wardrobe
- MY IRON LUNG ALSO ON THE SOUNDTRACK??? i fucking love radiohead bro
- the jane austen-ness of it all
- “hi daddy, this is my friend tai.” “GET OUT OF MY CHAIR!!!”
- dion’s party outfit with the flared skirt
- brittany murphy’s voice when she sings briefly
- “everywhere in la takes twenty minutes.” (bc true)
- “i’m having a twin peaks experience.”
- cher being more upset about ruining her dress than getting robbed at gunpoint
- amber’s eyeliner
-the way josh looks at cher when she’s descending the steps 😻
- “what the hell is that?” “a dress.” “says who?” “calvin klein.”
- fake plastic trees AGAIN
- when cher falls off the bed, when tai falls down the stairs
- the sweet way murray calms dion down after the freeway disaster
- “you’re such a brat!”
- “you’re a virgin who can’t drive.” ICONIC
- when cher realizes she loves josh 😭😻💞🥰💝
- travis’ last name being birkenstock
- WHEN JOSH DEFENDS CHER FROM THE EVIL LAWYER GUY 😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻 and they kisssss
- “you know you’re gorgeous, alright.”
- “AS IF! i’m only sixteen. and this is california, not kentucky.”
if i could add a fifth film to my top four, this movie would go up there in a heartbeat.
