  • Charlotte Rampling transcends the construct of a movie
After recently viewing 45 Years and remembering the spell that Charlotte Rampling casts over The Night Porter and her other films, I was quick to buy Swimming Pool. What a treat, but what else could we come to expect..? To those who want clarity in film, known as Americans, sorry, but this is a French work of art. As enjoyable to me as watching this multilayered riddle of mysteries is to analyze the reviews of the Amazon faithful, who run the gamut of reactions and interpretations to what has been thrown at them.. My take is that no single idea of what the film means can have much meaning..The symbolism and flesh which relentlessly assaults the psyche of the viewer assures little to no consensus of any narrative..After all of this, I deem it both foolhardy and presumptuous to offer any solution to any of this..I have none.. Charlotte Rampling owns the film, as she has most recently in 45 Years..In my opinion, no other film artist proves so stunningly the old adage that acting is basically an exercise in reacting..We first see her secure in her costume of a frozen frump, failing pathetically to hide her longing for her book publisher, who wonderfully displays his seductive guile through cruelty and reminders that money is all that there is to it..Once the story moves to the French countryside, we are beguiled by a sense of isolation and beauty, where privacy allows license for behavior of any fashion, beckoned by the swimming pool..which offers the display of the body and opportunity for sexual expression and mischief with no consequences. Yes, we have Julie the sexpot, who bares her breasts as just one feature of her fury and defiance against her father..The one reviewer who saw the story as anchored in sexual abuse themes explaining the core and impact on the two female leads may be onto something, but this is obscure and unknowable to most. Those who object to the nudity fail to see this movie as essentially psychosexual, thus, always confusing. But Ms. Rampling is more than capable and equipped to confront such themes..Sorry, Ladies, but there are few females in film, let alone on this planet, who at 57, when this film was made, who can recline nude on film and appear not disgusting, but incredibly enticing, to say nothing of that mesmerizing face, which will always be timeless..and haunting..Those who try to explain this film will always be fated to a fool's errand..Ms. Rampling will transcend narrative and the ravages of age, and we each are so fortunate that she, unlike no one else, does so, and, in doing so, presents us with images, which tell us that there will always be magic in the experience of film..unlike anything else. She is a treasure. ... show more

  • A languid film with an amazing depth of personality
I honestly didn't think that I would like this movie, until my brother practically forced me to watch it. Turns out, I love the film. Although there are not many remarkable individual moments, the film is interesting and eyecatching because of real personalities of the two main characters; Sarah Morton (played by Charlotte Rampling) and Julie (played by Ludivine Sagnier). Both Sarah and Julie have unique strengths and weaknesses that are perfectly exploited along the plotline. Sarah is a writer of a well-known detective series, sent by her editor, John, to be a guest in his French home while she finishes her next book. To her surprise, John's daughter Julie shows up to stay at the house also. Sarah is a tightly wound, prissy Englishwoman, while Julie is a young and wildly promiscuous free spirit. Sharing the same residence isn't easy for these two distinctively different personalities, and while there is tension and loathing, there are also certain understandings that eventually crawl out from underneath their selfish personas. Sarah and Julie become bound together by sharing an intrigue, and the twist at the end of the movie will shock you, and leave you asking a few questions as to what was real and what was not. The acting is very good; the setting is beautiful, the script tight and extremely well done in managing to create any kind of bond between two such distinctive people. Definitely get the un-rated version, but beware the "undercover snake" and the unwanted buffalo shot of some untrimmed shrubbery. Although not action packed, or bloody, or infused with highly tense moments, this languid and flowing film still deserves five stars for uniqueness of plot, great performances, and an excellent twist. Rent before you buy, but I wound out purchasing it. Enjoy! ... show more

  • AS IF "ENCHANTED APRIL" HAD BEEN SCRIPTED BY PAT. HIGHSMITH
Imagine the story of "Enchanted April" reworked by the devious mind of Patricia Highsmith and you'll get an idea of the kind of kinky pleasure that awaits the viewer of this film. Here we have two women sharing a lovely country cottage in a romantic locale. But instead of discovering love, they discover hidden animosities, secret connections, and murder. But the story is not entirely downbeat. In fact, it shares a number of similarities with the Diane Keaton/Jack Nicholson comedy, "Something's Gotta Give." Both films feature a successful fiftysomething female author who is enjoying the solitary life in a beautiful country cottage when suddenly everything is turned upside down by the unexpected arrival of an oversexed commitment-phobe. In "Something's Gotta Give" the unexpected guest is the boyfriend of the author's daughter. In "Swimming Pool" the guest is the daughter of the author's boyfriend. As in "Something's Gotta Give," the author/protagonist takes an early disliking to the intruder and then, over the course of the picture, gradually revises her early opinion until, ultimately, a strong bond is formed between the two of them. In both films the author's creative juices are reenergized by the stranger's arrival. Each author ends up producing her best work simply by writing about her relationship with the intruder who has so topsy-turvied her life. The movie is funny, intriguing, beautifully photographed and flawlessly acted. Overall, it's a more truthful picture than "Something's Gotta Give" and a more exciting picture than "Enchanted April." ... show more
