We are marking two milestones tonight! Celebrate the official 250th birthday of the incomparable Jane Austen with a screening of one of the most beloved modern adaptations of her work: Clueless (1995). Why two celebrations? Because this witty '90s reimagining of Austen’s Emma (1815) is also turning 30 this year!
Clueless | Directed by Amy Heckerling
Cher Horowitz is wealthy, stylish, and reigning queen of her Beverly Hills high school. Confident in her matchmaking skills, she orchestrates a romance between two teachers, then turns her attention to transforming the awkward new girl, Tai. But when Tai’s popularity skyrockets, Cher is forced to take a hard look at her own values and her unexpected feelings for a certain person in her life.
Come celebrate Austen's timeless influence and Clueless’s lasting charm—with three elements we love about Jane Austen: laughs, fashion, and just a touch of romantic drama.
Part of the Jane Austen: 250 Years of a Literary Icon series, this program celebrates the cultural impact of Jane Austen’s work.
