Chasing Amy a gateway to becoming more comfortable with his identity, sections of the LGBTQ+ community think Smith’s film is polarizing and harmful to the community.Sav Rodgers says about the upcoming world premiere:

“The journey of making Chasing Chasing Amy has been eye-opening in so many ways. When I was younger I felt I had to defend to other LGBTQ+ individuals my connection to Chasing Amy despite its deep personal significance. This movie, which saved my life, also has a controversial past in the queer film canon. I hope that Chasing Amy shows that people and things can be complex, and that the relationship we have to the movies we grew up with can also be complex.
