Clueless (1995), is an American coming-of-age comedy film. Basis: A rich high school student tries to boost a new pupil's popularity, but reckons without affairs of the heart getting in the way.

 Cher Horowitz, a sweet but spoiled type, though she actually lives in . Living in a mansion, waited on by servants, and flaunting her wealth with fashion, she's the undisputed queen of Bronson Alcott High School. Cher is tough and clever, like her father Mel. Cher convinces two of her teachers that each is a secret admirer of the other, negotiating her way from a C+ average to an A- average. Cher doesn't have a regular boyfriend: she describes finding a boyfriend in high school as "being as pointless as looking for meaning in a Pauly Shore movie."

CHER HOROWITZ: So, OK, like right now, for example, the Hait-ians need to come to America. But some people are all, "What about the strain on our resources?" But it's like, when I had this garden party for my father's birthday right? I said R.S.V.P. because it was a sit-down dinner. But people came that like, did not R.S.V.P. so I was like, totally buggin'. I had to haul ass to the kitchen, redistribute the food, squish in extra place settings, but by the end of the day it was like, the more the merrier! And so, if the government could just get to the kitchen, rearrange some things, we could certainly party with the Hait-ians. And in conclusion, may I please remind you that it does not say R.S.V.P. on the Statue of Liberty?
