The DUFF

The DUFF (teen slang for "Designated Ugly Fat Friend") is a 2015 American high school teen comedy film directed by Ari Sandel. The screenplay by Josh Cagan was based on the 2010 novel of the same name by Kody Keplinger. The film stars Mae Whitman, Robbie Amell, Bella Thorne, Nick Eversman, Skyler Samuels, Bianca Santos, Allison Janney, and Ken Jeong. The DUFF was distributed by CBS Films via Lionsgate. CBS also produced the film with Vast Entertainment and Wonderland Sound and Vision. It was released on February 20, 2015, and was the first film for which Lionsgate took over CBS Films' distribution functions. It received positive reviews from critics, with praise for Whitman's performance. Comparisons were frequently drawn to the cult teen films Mean Girls (2004) and Easy A (2010). Against a budget of $8.5 million, the film grossed $43 million at the box office.

This is why we are not dating, okay? Because you, my friend, are a juvenile dipshit. - I could be dating college guys... - Yeah. ...or famous people or 30-year-olds. That sounds like an awesome episode of Dateline. Enjoy those saggy balls. Fine, I will. Ugh.

Let you get away Now, don't go away My darling Don't go away Hey, Billy. - No, just Bianca. - Jesus. Looking very handsome tonight. Why, thank you. Having fun at the party? Yeah, actually, your girls are looking incredible out there. Have they asked about me? When I told them that you were here, their eyes filled with this, like, sparkle, you know, with, like, childlike wonder, and then they just started dancing together. - It was kind of beautiful. - Yeah, it was. Do they do other things together that I might be able to join in on or just watch? I'm kidding. Not kidding at all. Tell me everything. Yeah, it's actually not my job to give you pervy intel - on my best friends, but thanks. - Well, I mean, it kind of is, though. People ask you questions about them, right, because that's your job as their DUFF.

It's not like a big deal, okay? I mean, like, every group of friends has one. The one who doesn't look as good, thus making their friends look better. The one who's approachable and easy to talk to, because no one's trying to get in their pants. And if you don't know who it is, chances are it's you. Say when. Say...

Oh, God, that is such a guy thing to say. Guys can be DUFFs too, okay? You know my boy A.J., freshman on the football team? We're in chemistry together. Now he's doing the second most important job a DUFF can do, acting as, like, the gatekeeper to their better-looking friends. The guy with the info people go to before they make their move. - Watch, watch. - Is it true Wes is single? Ahem. Uh, sure is, yeah. Got it. Thanks, A.J. You're sweet.
