Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Dominique Swain filmed this right after Lolita (1997), making her jump from controversial prestige to fashion satire one of cinema's whiplash career moves.
This film predates The Devil Wears Prada by six years but shares its DNA—though where Prada became iconic, The Intern remains deliciously forgotten.
