While perusing the NewsAskew archives, I found the below item . . .

And finally today, a small newsbite from the August 2000 edition of Independent Filmmakers (an Australian idie mag):

Whe Miramax demanded (Kevin) use David Schwimmer and Drew Barrymore as the leads in his third film, 'Chasing Amy', or have his budget slashed from US$6 million to US$250,000, Smith gave Miramax the finger, took the budget cut, and used unknowns Ben Affleck and Joey Lauren Adams. Despite Miramax's protestations, 'Chasing Amy' earned $US$27 million and become Miramax's most profitable film ever.

Is this true? If so, holy shit, Kevin's got big, round balls of brass.
