Kevin Smith is one of the new autuers of cinema, but he doesn't really belong alongside the, Tarantinos, Rodriguezes, and Singers. Smith doesn't make movies like them, or like most people do right now. Smith's works better resemble the works of the “Kings of New Jersey,” including such luminaries as Bruce Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi. His movies are peppered with bits of pride and romanticism for the crowded streets and bustling people of the Garden State, talking in their own language. “Chasing Amy,” Smith's latest film, is probably the most New Jersey film he’s done yet. Smith's biggest improvement with this film is in the director's chair. “Chasing Amy” shows just how much he's learned, how much more he can get out of the camera, out of each actor's performance. But he still doesn't consider himself a director. Smith says, "I got into directing just to ensure that the scripts that 1 wrote made it to the screen pretty much as I wrote them. I've never really felt like a director - until this movie." Smith's film photo: Lorezno Bevilaqua, courtesy of Miramax style is strangely familiar. “Chasing Amy” feels like the type of John Hughes movies Jay and Silent Bob (Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith) offer their thoughts on life. They will return to the that never get made anymore, full of big screen in "Dogma," a religious satire and Smith's next film. | people just smart enough to be scared of life. “Am y” also pays homage in some together. Many founts of inspiration, but what makes finished the second script, bul has no interest in scenes to “Jaws” and “Slapshot,” as well as the many a good director? “You’re either good with people or directing the tale.
