Chasing Amy
“It's not who you love. It's how.”
Director
Kevin Smith
Screenplay
Kevin Smith
Kevin Smith's most mature early film is a sharp, talky romantic dramedy in which a comic-book artist (Ben Affleck) falls for a witty fellow creator (Joey Lauren Adams), only to be tormented by insecurity when he learns she is a lesbian. Jason Lee steals scenes as his jealous best friend. Funny, raw and unusually honest about jealousy and sexuality, it earned strong reviews and remains a landmark of 1990s American independent cinema, if debated in hindsight.
