Cher (a delightful Alicia Silverstone) is a California high school student who is much too busy taking care of everybody else to realize that something may be missing from her life, something that is standing right next to her in the guise of her cute stepbrother Josh (Paul Rudd). Somewhere between giving her new best friend (Brittany Murphy) a makeover and playing matchmaker to two lonely teachers, Cher finds true love. Directed by Amy Heckerling, the movie is an updating of the Jane Austen classic, Emma, but don’t let you stop you from settling in for this funny 90-minutes of romantic fluff. If you haven’t seen it since it hit theaters (back in 1995) you’ll be delighted at how well it holds up. If this is your first time seeing it, you are in for a sweet treat.
