"Return to Paradise".

Tiny film from 1998 that also stars Vince Vaughn and Anne Heche. Very good performance.

Check out "Quills" too.

Excellent little movie, that surprisingly isn't diminished by the presence of Vince Vaughn.

My favorite roles of his are:
To Die For
Quills
The Village (I am one of the few who loved this movie. I hated Signs).

Vince Vaughn is excellent in just about everything he does. he can headline the blockbusters (Wedding Crashers, Dodgeball) and plays excellent bit parts (see: Thumbsucker).

Try, Clay Pigeons. I purchased it cheap as a blind buy at Borders, and I was absolutely blown away by how good of a movie it is. It's a little gem of a film, that is well worth your $$$'s.

he was good in 1989's Parenthood. Heartbreakingly real when he calls his father to ask if he could live with him, and his father gives him some BS excuse.
