This movie has a ethereal, strange vibe to it. It is over the top in many ways. This is because it is not happening. It is occurring in this writers imagination. There is a very good synopsis of this movie out there in web land but suffice to say the director says this: "Charlotte's character kept mixing fantasy and reality. Although in Swimming Pool, everything related to fantasy is part of the act of creation, so it is more channeled and less likely to end up causing madness. In terms of directing, I've treated everything that is imaginary in Swimming Pool in a realistic way so that you see it all - fantasy and reality alike - on the same plane." So, guys no one was hurt, no one had S@x, no one came to the house, no one tricked Charlotte. This is a deep movie about a frustrated writer who resentful about her life, the subject she is known to write about and her publisher. Give this movie a chance and use your intuition. These are two actresses at the top of their acting game and this director uses his craft to create a beautiful dream like movie.
