Vince Vaughn Says ‘Responsible’ Comedies Are a ‘Snoozefest’: Hollywood Should ‘Let Young People Go Make Movies and Leave Them Alone’


Vince Vaughn, who's receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, looks back at many of his films, including 'Swingers' and 'Wedding Crashers.'

Vaughn first met actor and filmmaker Peter Billingsley, perhaps best known as Ralphie in “A Christmas Story,” in 1990 on the CBS Schoolbreak Special “The Fourth Man,” and their scripted relationship set the foundation for one in real life. Ahead of his Walk of Fame ceremony, which will be held Monday at 11:30 a.m., Vaughn sat down for a lengthy conversation about many of his most famous films, the twists and turns his career has taken, and his perspective as an actor, writer and producer after more than 30 years in the entertainment industry. This movie “Nonnas” will be going to the Toronto Film Festival in September with Steve Chbosky and a great cast of actresses: Talia Shire, Lorraine Bracco, Susan Sarandon, Brenda [Vaccaro].
