Swimming Pool

(Reviewed June 19, 2003)

I loved this movie, and I thought its ending made perfect sense, but be warned: When it was over, a critic at the screening I attended blurted out, "What the hell happened?"

Charlotte Rampling is a repressed British crime novelist taking a working vacation at her publisher's house in France. The impossibly beautiful Ludovine Sagnier is the publisher's slutty daughter, who shows up and generally disturbs the peace (primarily by bringing home strange men and running around stark naked A LOT) (and guys, when I say A LOT, I mean A LOT). Saying anything more would give too much away, but trust me, this is like no other movie you are likely to see this year.

Go!
