Swingers

Swingers is one of my all-time favorite movies and I just wanted to know what you all thought of this film.
I noticed how this relates to LIT. Both deal with being lost in relationships. Mike is dealing with moving foward after a break-up. He was so used to being Michelle's boyfriend that he didn't know how to move on. I can relate to his character. (I wish I could say I could relate to Trent :wink: -Vince Vaughn was so money in this movie!)

Although Swingers is one of my favorite movies, I think their similarity ends at being 'about relationships'.

Swingers is a comedy front to back. LiT, though unfortunately marketed as a comedy, was not.

Swingers was completely about the characters and dialogue was the focus. LiT focuses more on location, mood, music - and the dialogue, though fantastic, is pretty sparse.

I watch Swingers when I want to laugh.

I watch LiT when I want to smile.
