One like none (Original title: She's All That ) is an American high school comedy from 1999. Directed by Robert Iscove.

action

Zack Siler, a very popular student, is left by his girlfriend Taylor Vaughan right at the beginning of the film. He then bets his friends that he could have any girl in school and turn her into a prom queen. Zack now has to cope with this task within six weeks and on Laney Boggs, a very withdrawn girl who is only interested in his art. After both of them don't think much of each other at the beginning, they get closer in the course of the film and finally fall in love.

Laney Boggs, in particular, changes over the course of the film: while she still lives quite withdrawn at the beginning, she becomes increasingly open and also more confident. Her appearance has also changed a lot: at first she still wears horn-rimmed glasses and tattered overalls, at the end she presents herself with make-up, contact lenses and figure-hugging clothes. The change does not take place suddenly, but gradually.

In the end, there is a prom date between Dean and Laney, not between Zack and Laney, while Zack visits the ball with his sister. While Dean brags in the toilet in front of the others that he would do something with Laney that night, Jesse overhears and immediately informs Zack. Laney later reveals to Zack that she noticed Dean's intentions too late and that she held a gun to Dean's ear to defend himself with a loud, high-pitched sound. Later, when awarding the degrees, which shows that Dean has suffered medium-term ear damage, Zack shows Laney what the use of the bet she asked for on the evening of the ball in her garden was.

Reviews

The lexicon of international film describes one like none as a “renewed infusion of the story of the“ ugly duckling ”that is turning into beauty by merely warming up the clichés from American high school films. In view of the clumsy humor and the maudlin romanticism, the main actress's charm stands out positively. "
