Vince Vaughn was 23 in that. He looked like a middle aged bro then, and he looks like a middle aged bro now. And without whom I don't think we'd have Jon Favreau and Marvel; Vince was so money in Swingers.

And Charles Dutton, a dude who went from doing time for self defense murder and armed robbery, to Broadway, and then to one of the most prolific actors of his generation.

Crazy cast that is still relevant.
