About

Kimberly Joyce (Evan Rachel Wood), an insanely intelligent, wildly funny, shockingly cruel and sexy-beyond-her-years Beverly Hills teenager who will stop at nothing to become famous. Believing the world is an orchestra and she is the conductor, Kimberly masterfully manipulates all those around her. She convinces her two best friends to join her in a campaign against their befuddled teacher, Mr. Anderson, played to nebbishy perfection by Ron Livingston (ADAPTATION, OFFICE SPACE). Kimberly entangles the entire Beverly Hills community in her carefully woven web of seduction and deceit. A clever comedy with many turns, PRETTY PERSUASION has an ending that nobody but Kimberly can predict!

    "Much of [Pretty Persuasion] is also extremely funny. Any satire worth its salt should not be afraid to offend, and 'Pretty Persuasion' flings mud in all directions with a fearless audacity."
    Stephen Holden, The New York Times
