Twink Caplan, the actress remembered for her role as Miss Toby Geist in the 1995 film "Clueless," was recently seen grocery shopping in Los Angeles. Caplan, 78, was spotted at Bristol Farms wearing a pink T-shirt, black pants, and a multicolored plaid-and-print jacket, with her red hair partially covered by a black baseball cap. She completed her casual look with black loafers.
Caplan, who hails from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, had a notable career throughout the late 1980s and early 2000s. In addition to "Clueless," she appeared in "Look Who's Talking" (1989) and its 1990 sequel, "Look Who's Talking Too." She notably declined a role in the 1993 sequel, "Look Who's Talking Now." Her television work includes an appearance in the series "Fast Times."
In 2020, Caplan reflected on the 25th anniversary of "Clueless." She expressed surprise at the film's enduring popularity and the continued affection from fans. During an appearance on the "Today" show, she shared her gratitude for the impact her role as Miss Geist had.
Caplan attributed the film's success in part to its casting, particularly praising Alicia Silverstone's performance as Cher Horowitz. She also shared fond memories of the late Brittany Murphy, who played Tai, describing her as "delicious" and a "sweet girl" during auditions. Caplan cited the on-screen romance between her character, Miss Geist, and Mr. Hall, played by Wallace Shawn, as a memorable aspect of the film. She also acknowledged director Amy Heckerling, noting that the film elevated the careers of its cast members.
