Keener gravitates towards roles in independent films, and opts for smaller character roles on rare occasions when she agrees to appear in larger studio ventures, which Entertainment Weekly critic Missy Schwartz believes “she inhabits more comfortably than flashier ones.” Amanda McCorquodale, contributing to the Miami New Times, wrote that Keener regularly plays smart, neurotic women in independent films, likening her body of work to Woody Allen heroines. Rotten Tomatoes crowned Keener “one of the queens of 1990s American independent cinema”, while The Independent called her “A darling of the independent film world”. Despite commending her diverse yet carefully cultivated roles, The Independent observed that most of Keener’s studio roles have “barely registered” among critics and audiences. Williams believes that Keener’s skillset and versatility have allowed her to work with some of the industry’s best filmmakers. Schwartz wrote that directors such as Neil LaBute (Your Friends & Neighbors, 1998) and Steven Soderbergh (Full Frontal, 2002) have consistently “put her unusual beauty and trademark dry wit to good use.”

She also guest-starred as an artist on an episode of Seinfeld called “The Letter”. She played Jerry’s girlfriend, an artist who painted a famous portrait of Kramer. Keener then earned her first starring role, in Johnny Suede, with the then-unknown Brad Pitt. Her performance gained critical acclaim and earned her first Independent Spirit Award nomination for Best Female Lead. She went on to work with director Tom Dicillo again, in Living in Oblivion (1995). Two years later, she was once again nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for her performance in Walking and Talking, an independent cult-comedy film directed by Nicole Holofcener.
