Swain’s first movie role was as Jamie Archer in the 1997 action movie Face/Off. Soon after, she starred in Lolita. At the time of its release, she was 17 years old. In the late ’90s and early 2000s, Swain starred in a number of movies, including Girl, Intern, The Smokers, Tart, Pumpkin, and New Best Friend. In a 2012 interview with We Got This Covered, Swain shared that she knew Lolita was going to be scandalous when she took on the title role. “The whole story, the Nabokov book, is controversial. I knew it would be controversial,” she said. “We were, as far as distribution goes, up against a lot of things.” She noted that it was challenging to even make the film, because of what they could and couldn’t show onscreen. “So [director] Adrian [Lyne] didn’t get to use his cut and it didn’t come out for years. Lolita didn’t come out for three years,” she said. “The normal turnaround is one year or less. I didn’t expect for everybody to be up in arms about it, but the story itself is very volatile.” Swain, who used a body double for parts of the film, also said that her mom was on set with her “the entire time for any things that would have been questionable.” She added, “There was nothing that I actually did that my mom objected to.” Today, Swain is still acting regularly. She was recently in the films 4 Horsemen: Apocalypse, Meteor Moon, and Eminence Hill, and in the Lifetime TV movies The Wrong Mr. Right, Obsessed with the Babysitter, and The Wrong Mommy. Aside from acting, Swain is passionate about travel. She documents her road trips with her partner on her personal Instagram account, as well as on their dedicated travel account at the handle @welovejourneys. Recently, the pair have shared photos of themselves making their way around Florida, Kansas, and Pennsylvania.ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb
