i was just wondering what the bearing of multiculturalism has on the film. Or is heckerling just tryin to state something - if so what?
also i know that Clueless has the values of Multiculturalism and consumerism - is there any other values in clueless but not in Emma?
This one is weird, and it is best to find other values to talk about, because the people that said "Clueless is multi-cultural because it has black and jewish people in it" would have done better if they didn't mention it at all.
If you have to use it though, you might want to broaden it into Amy Heckeling saying something about the "deviant" characters in the film, who are all wearing blue instead of pink or black in the last scene at the wedding... Which is ironic because they are meant to be marginalised, but instead they are highlighted in the scene. (Still, its a bit of a "where's wally" to find the only stated homosexual character, Cristian, in any of the frames.) So is Amy Heckeling a racist homophobic? probably not, but who knows.
