The best raunchy teen comedy just turned 25 — why ‘American Pie’ is still so sweet

Eugene Levy and Jason Biggs in American Pie.

Twenty-five years ago, Jason Biggs had sex with an apple pie, and the rest was history. As vulgar as that sentence reads, there’s no beating around the bush when discussing “American Pie.” The teen sex comedy became a cultural phenomenon in July 1999, creating a legacy that still stands today.

In East Great Falls, Michigan, we meet five friends: Jim Levenstein (Jason Biggs), the nerd; Kevin Myers (Thomas Ian Nicholas), the confident leader; Chris “Oz” Ostreicher (Chris Klein), the jock with a heart; Paul Finch (Eddie Kaye Thomas), the intellectual; and Steve Stiffler (Sean William Scott), the Stiffmeister.
