Chasing Amy

Chasing Amy (1997) is a film by writer/director Kevin Smith, it is the last movie in what has been called the Jersey Trilogy (which consists of his other films, Clerks (1994) and Mallrats (1995). Chasing Amy stars Ben Affleck as Holden McNeil, Joey Lauren Adams as Alyssa Jones and Jason Lee as Banky Edwards.

Chasing Amy is about two friends, Holden and Banky, who are comic book artists working on their own comic Bluntman and Chronic, at a comic book convention Banky and Holden assist their friend and fellow colleague in the world of comics, Hooper LaMont with a publicity stunt to promote his book on the minority panel. Hooper is on the panel because he is a black man, who is also gay. Hooper is later says that he is; "the minority in the minority of the minority."

This is an example of Banky's comedic wit.

Then it happens, everyone has felt this way before, something horrible happens and you and another go your separate ways, and you hope they'll see the error of their ways and come back. And Alyssa does just that. She runs down the street to Holden and clings to him, in the pouring rain and they just share this moment of passion, where they embrace each other and engage in a very passionate kiss.
