Lewis Old School
Thursday, August 14th, 2008
Old School is a 2003 comedy film starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Will Ferrell and a number of supporting actors and actresses, Juliette Lewis included.
The film’s premise is that three grown men, looking to re-live their college days in a kind of attempt to escape their problems, start a fraternity to blow off some steam and have a good time. But before they can do that they need to come together; and that’s where Lewis comes in.
Lewis plays the part of Heidi, girlfriend to Mitch (who’s played by Wilson). Unbeknownst to to Mitch, however, Heidi is a fairly ‘free’ girl who engages in threesomes while he’s away on business trips. Despite her insistence that the threesomes are purely sexual in nature, however, Heidi loses Mitch and he moves out on her to seek better fortunes elsewhere.
That’s pretty much the only part Lewis plays in the film, actually. Once the threesome is over her role is complete. A shame, but, oh well. What follows is a relatively shallow but purely fun comedy.
