From the Author
Swingers was well known in Hollywood for about two years before it was ever even filmed. We would do staged readings for investors and producers in the hopes of getting it financed, and the screenplay itself was a favorite among the vast network of assistants at the agencies. The script was passed around because it was considered a "fun read" regardless of whether or not there was any professional interest in the material. For years, I had been approached by assistants and low level execs who claimed to be fans of my movie even though it had not yet been made.
It was the support of these people that gave me the confidence to persue the crusade to make this little movie, and now it forever lives in the video racks and art house theaters.
For those who appreciate the film, it might be interesting to read the original screenplay and to see how the movie's personality evolved. For those who are interested in making their own film, the introduction recounting what actually lead to its production may offer some insight. For those who enjoy the film's humor, a "rules" chapter that Vince Vaughn and I put together should be a nice added touch.
My life has changed a lot since I wrote this screenplay over the course of two weeks in my roach-infested Hollywood apartment. It means a lot to me to have the opportunity to present a piece of work that is, in some ways, more personal than the film itself.
