The most probable match is the 1995 comedy-drama film:

Few coming-of-age films capture the awkward, joyful, and messy reality of first love like Maria Maggenti's 1995 indie gem, The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love . Unlike tragic queer narratives of its era, the film focuses on the everyday: high school, gas station jobs, and the quiet thrill of holding hands in a diner. Randy (Laurel Holloman), a working-class, out lesbian, and Evie (Nicole Parker), a studious, closeted rich girl, navigate class differences and family resistance without melodrama. The "incredibly true" part of the title is key — Maggenti based parts on her own experiences, grounding the romance in specific, lived details. Decades later, the film remains a touchstone for its gentle insistence that queer happiness can be as simple, and as complicated, as any other kind of love.
