Pull out your best '90s fashion and join us for Clueless (1995), screening twice at Jengo's Playhouse as part of the Cinematique at Jengo's series.

Screenings:
• 4:30 PM (Matinee)
• 7:30 PM (Evening Screening + Post-Film Discussion)

This witty, modern take on Jane Austen's Emma follows stylish Beverly Hills teen Cher Horowitz (Alicia Silverstone) as she navigates friendship, fashion, matchmaking, and first love after giving the new girl at school (Brittany Murphy) a total makeover.

Stick around after the 7:30 PM screening for a discussion with Todd Berliner, Professor of Film Studies at UNCW, exploring why Amy Heckerling's Clueless remains one of the most influential teen comedies of all time—from popularizing iconic catchphrases like "As if!" to shaping '90s fashion, inspiring an off-Broadway musical and television series, and helping define the MTV-inspired visual style that influenced a generation of filmmakers.

A celebration of girlhood and the complexities that come with it, Cookie Queens is a coming-of-age story about the joys, pressures, and tensions woven into one of America’s most cherished rituals: Girl Scout Cookie season.

Captivating, candid, and full of heart, the film follows four girls ages 5-12 as they navigate the annual whirlwind of selling, striving, and succeeding. For these Girl Scouts, selling cookies isn’t just about Thin Mints and sisterhood - it’s a crash course in commercialism. Behind the smiles lie real pressure: long hours, ambitious goals, and weighty expectations.

With humor, warmth, and a keen eye for small moments revealing big truths, Cookie Queens shows how growing up is shaped by tensions between community and capitalism. Two screenings: 2pm & 5pm

Each ticket includes:
$10,000 in Chips
