Paul Rudd and Alicia Silverstone Stage a 'Clueless' Reunion in New York City

I'm not all that excited about Paul Rudd's new film, "Our Idiot Brother." (It kind of looks like it's trying a bit too hard.) But the mini "Clueless" reunion for the "Idiot" screening in New York last night of Rudd and stepsister slash lover Alicia Silverstone sure warmed my heart. (Anyone else think "Clueless" was THE comedy of the '90s?) They both look great 16 years later, and while Silverstone's star didn't rise as far as was planned -- See: "Excess Baggage," although co-star Benecio Del Toro's gotta live with the fact that he fathered a child with Kimberly Stewart -- and Rudd's rose much higher than most would have thought, the new mom (Silverstone had a boy in May) looks happy and has four films in the can.

Cher and Josh were borderline Greg and Marcia Cindy Brady

Other highlights from the screening at 1 MiMA Tower:

Rudd with "Idiot" costars Steve Coogan and Hugh Dancy

I'm assuming your "..." after "Gabourey Sidibe lookin' good" was ironic. Cuz her forearms are apparently too fat for her elbows.

Hey, show Joyce DeWitt some love - she looks pretty good at 61 years of age!
