Reel Women Season: Clueless with intro by Clare Grogan (12A)

In accordance with updated Scottish Government guidance, screenings will have no physical distancing requirements, although face masks will still be required (except when eating/drinking).
Welcome to a specially selected season of four films presented by this month’s celebrity guest curator: Clare Grogan. Clare has worked extensively in Music, Film, Television, Theatre and Radio for 30+ years. The summer she left school her band Altered Images were signed to Epic Records and Clare appeared in the BAFTA winning comedy Gregory’s Girl directed by Bill Forsyth. Clare has presented film, travel, cooking and music shows for TV and radio and had roles in dozens of TV and Radio Dramas, including Skins, Eastenders, Red Dwarf, Father Ted and Still Game.

We are proud to welcome Clare virtually to the Hippodrome. The season is supported by funds from the BFI FAN Film Exhibition Fund. The first film of the season is the 90s classic Clueless.

Message from Clare Grogan about this film: “So much to love about writer and director Amy Heckerling's 90's iconic comedy of manners and circumstances! Originally rejected by a number of Hollywood studios this teen classic smashed the box office and remains a firm favourite of mine. Brilliant ensemble cast including Paul Rudd, Brittany Murphy are led by the hilarious Alicia Silverstone. She is glorious as the superficial but endearing Beverley Hills High School Queen of the Scene, Cher. Her determination to become a match maker extraodinaire and an overall worthy person takes us on a very silly but joyful journey. The fashion alone launched a worldwide cult following, inspiring generations of school kids to rock that plaid skirt and knee-high sock look. It was my teen daughter Elle that re-introduced me to Clueless when she discovered it in lockdown. Loved the fact that we both engaged with this coming of age Jane Austen inspired comedy and I'm sure we will revisit it again and again – it's what dull days were made for.”
