Her film 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High' and especially 'Clueless' brilliantly portray house parties as social microcosms where teenage hierarchies and relationships are revealed.

His silent film 'Steamboat Bill, Jr.' and comedic work often featured elaborate house and party sequences that pioneered physical comedy in domestic settings.
