Chasing Amy

1997
★★★★

Watched 06 Nov 2020

Scavenger Hunt #68 | November ’20

Task #6: My friend, Bane, said he would watch a movie every day in November to stop me from nagging him to watch movies. This challenge was dubbed Ninevember and is occurring this very month. Watch a movie on the Ninevember challenge.

A romantic comedy mixed with a buddy comedy, and then gone black, with an exceptional character study underneath. Chasing Amy is a difficult movie to describe, as it is about a guy's relationship with his best friend and co-writer of a comic book series and his new love interest. While the film is far from the most politically correct and is a clear depiction of the era it was released in, it does deliver some good laughs thanks to its raunchy humor and is filled with genuine emotions at the same time, elements that are further complemented by outstanding performances from an ensemble cast.
