"Clueless" and "Emma" (with Gwyneth Paltrow) are two of my favorite movies.
I would have the students watch both movies, "Emma" first, then "Clueless". I wold design a 4 column spreadsheet having students compare and contrast the similarities and differences between each movie. That's the fun part.
I would obtain the script(s) for both and have the students analyze the text, themes, and characterization. Amy Heckerling vs Jane Austen - what did you learn about their respective writing styles? What was the reading experience like.
