The high school film loosely based on Jane Austen's novel Emma is "Clueless" (1995). This movie is a modern coming-of-age teen comedy that transposes the story of Emma to a Beverly Hills high school setting. The plot features Cher Horowitz, a wealthy and popular high school girl who acts as a matchmaker and helps those around her with their romantic lives, mirroring the character Emma Woodhouse from the novel. The film incorporates many parallels to Austen's characters and themes, but in the context of 1990s teenage culture and slang.
