Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Liman's follow-up to Swingers, and he shot the rave scenes at actual underground parties with real ravers as extras.
The film captures the precise moment before the dot-com bust and 9/11 killed '90s slacker culture dead—it's a time capsule of pre-irony earnestness.
