I watched Chasing Amy last night. The whole thing. It was on IFC and I decided to watch it. It hasn't aged all that well and is certainly not as good as I remember it, but there is still some stuff in there that's worth your time. Particularly Joey Lauren Adams. What happened to her? She's really good in that movie and, let's face it, with that voice she's starting in a hole. Her scene outside the hockey arena is the best scene in the entire movie.
What really struck me about Chasing Amy though is how much I miss the 90s. You remember the 90s don't you? Everyone called each other on pay phones, smoked in bars and shopped at record stores. They were good days.

I had really bad hair in the 80's so no, I'm good.
I remeber how cool i thought i was in the 90's, especially cuz i wore a dog collar had long part in the middle orage sun in hair, and i thought i was especially cool cuz i watched Chaising Amy, i was the worst, I remember a terrible outfit that i thought was the tops..here it goes..black doc martens, black gap jeans , a white t shirt with a ying yang on it with a matching ying yang necklace obvi from spencer gifts..its a wonder i wasnt beat up MORE often.
i think asking this crew if they remember the 90s is like asking Blanche Devereaux if she likes men. Or like asking Blossom if she likes wearing hats.
I teeter between nostalgia (record stores! radio! pay phones in the hallway of my college dorm!) and insane jealousy (my kids will not have to take an hour's worth of public transportation just to get their hands an a new album; oh, and those records are cheaper today than they were when I was in high school).
