[[File:swingers_491.jpg|frame|So Fuckin' Money!]]
A 1996 romantic comedy directed by Doug Liman, starring Jon Favreau, Vince Vaughn, and Ron Livingston (otherwise known as 'that guy from [[Office Space]]') as three young actors living in L.A. in the early 90's hanging around in the titular subculture (the swing music revival one, not [[Polyamory|that one]]), and struggling to get their careers and personal lives going. Favreau plays Mike, an aspiring comic from New York who has moved to Los Angeles in pursuit of a career after being dumped by his longtime girlfriend at home and has been in a romantic slump ever since he arrived, and Vaughn is Trent, his cocky, charismatic, and occasionally obnoxious party animal of a best friend. Also part of their circle are Rob (Livingston), an aspiring actor having trouble finding a gig better than dressing as a cartoon character at Disneyland, Sue (Patrick Van Horn), whose name was inspired by his parents' love of the Johnny Cash song, and Charles (Alex Desert).
