Clueless

So in the first 5 minutes of Clueless I realized that this is, hands down, one of my favorite movies. Which is a tiny bit embarrasing, until I looked at the release date--1995. This movie about high school romance came out while I was smack dab in the middle of--high school. Duh. I didn't have the clothes, the car, or the money, but I could totally vibe with the themes.

What's great about it also is the realization that Cher comes to, after thinking that the new girl in town was clueless, she realizes that she in fact (Cher) is the one who doesn't get it. How often do we think about others as knowing less than us about the way life is, and suddenly we realize that we're actually in the dark? I don't know about you but I have that happen to me all the time.

So this movie is a great blast from the past, but it also reminds me that we're all of us clueless in one way or another, but what really matters is that we reach out to the people around us, because together we get it. Plus, she totally gets the guy at the end. And that's of course my goal too. :)
