"Swimming Pool" (with Matthew Keeley)
Manage episode 428686694 series 3585115
In the second episode of Framed & Bound, host Tobias Carroll and guest Matthew Keeley discussed the 2003 psychological thriller Swimming Pool. The film was directed by François Ozon and stars Charlotte Rampling, Charles Dance, and Ludivine Sagnier. Ozon wrote the screenplay with Emmanuele Bernheim.
Discussed: editors with fancy houses in the south of France, precisely what kind of mysteries Charlotte Rampling's character in the film writes, and what genre this movie actually is.
Roger Ebert's review of the film is well worth reading: "Let us say that Francois Ozon, the director and co-writer (with Emmanuele Bernheim), understands as Hitchcock did the small steps by which a wrong decision grows in its wrongness into a terrifying paranoid nightmare."
Ludivine Sagnier discussed her experience working on the film in this 2008 interview.
