"Clueless"

Movie Analysis:
(rough)

This was a movie attached in Branded by Alissa Quart. She commented on the movie's constant protrayal of consumerism. (For example, Cher has to go shopping when she's frustrated...& at any other opportunity it seems.) Quart says that it is just another "make-over" movie, but I don't think it's a make-over movie for just Brittany Murphy's character. Cher also starts working for more charitable causes (in a naive way). But she really doesn't change. Sure, she's thinking a little more openly, but not in any substantial way. She got the guy, but you can't believe that she's actually any different. So what do we have? Another consumerist girl...& one who pretends she's not...sometimes.
