| Summary |
A romantic comedy about Holden, a young man who has fallen deeply in love with the beautiful and charming Alyssa, whose amorous inclinations seem limitless - except when it comes to him. Total candour, shifting sexual orientations and an atmosphere of teasing, freewheeling argument makes "chasing Amy" a spiky comedy which ultimately, redefines the boy-meets-girl formula. |
