Suspiria director Luca Guadagnino takes IMDb through his approach to filmmaking, from longtime collaborator Tilda Swinton, to why he hopes he doesn't have a "style."
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMarianne Lane's concert scene was filmed in Milan, at the San Siro Stadium, home to Serie A football clubs Inter and AC Milan. They shot the scene in front of 70,000 people during the show of Italian Rock star Lorenzo Jovanotti. Tilda Swinton has a mutual friend with Jovanotti, so they asked him if he could lend his crown for 15 minutes and the audience was asked to shout "Marianne Lane" before Jovanotti came out.
- GoofsHarry says he was 16 when "Emotional Rescue" was released, but that album was released in June 1980 and Harry's passport birth date is in August 1961, so he was nearly 19 when that album came out.
The possible root of this error may be that the actor (Ralph Fiennes) was aware that he's portraying a character who is about to turn 50 years old, but for some reason didn't consider that the movie takes place in the summer of 2011 (instead of 2014, when the movie was filmed). He either forgot, or miscalculated, or the movie setting was changed from 2014 to 2011 by a script rewrite after this scene was already filmed.
- Quotes
Paul De Smedt: You're obscene.
Harry Hawkes: We're all obscene. Everyone's obscene. That's the whole fucking point. We see it and we love each other anyway.
- Crazy creditsThroughout the credits, and at random intervals, there are images of stylised flowers, particularly noticeable in the section listing soundtrack items.
- Alternate versionsA recut extended version of the film, running 195 minutes and re-titled An Even Bigger Splash, screened at the Gothenburg Film Festival on 5 February 2022.

Featured review
There's something that made this film really come together well in the beginning. I didn't think it entirely successful, and many people will not take to its meandering tone and feel. More importantly, the character beats all seemed to work well. Yet at the same time, the longer it went on, the more and more I disliked it. The longer it went on, the more obnoxious it became, and what was initially interesting and intriguing became really lazy and uninspired. The more original the film thought it was, the more aggravating it was. I can't even really pick any specifics, it just did not sit right with me. The cast itself was good, and the film definitely wasn't following any clichés or formulas, so perhaps I would feel like rewatching it in the future and that would change my mind. But oh no, not right now.
