Synopsis

Chasing Amy (1997) is Kevin Smith's sharp indie romantic comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Ben Affleck plays Holden McNeil, a comic book artist who falls hard for Alyssa Jones — a fellow creator played by Joey Lauren Adams — despite the fact that she's gay.

Against the odds, something real develops between them. Then Holden's best friend and creative partner Banky (Jason Lee) starts digging up Alyssa's past, and everything begins to unravel. Jealousy, insecurity, and a stubborn inability to let go quietly destroy what might have been. The film doesn't spare anyone — least of all Holden himself.

The third entry in Smith's New Jersey trilogy, Chasing Amy was shot for under a quarter of a million dollars and earned a Film Independent Spirit Award for Best Screenplay. Smith himself appears as Silent Bob. Stream Chasing Amy (1997) online on iFILM.
