Did Anyone See "Swimming Pool"?
I liked it, but John hated it except for the topless French chick throughout the whole movie. I like Charlotte Rampling, and thought the plot was cool, though in many ways predictable. Did anyone else like/dislike the movie?

1. Liked it!
It was moody, with good visuals. About it being predictable: like you, I saw it as inevitable. In the lobby after the movie, however, I heard many folks talking about how they didn't "get" the ending. And, I had to explain it to Mr. Crowdance. (He really liked the french chick, too....)

2. I had to explain it to the couple with us *SPOILERS*
that it was the writing process and the events happened in her imagination. It wasn't their kind of movie.

3. Liked it also...
and had an interesting member of the audience...Christopher Reeves!!! He comes with quite the entourage of helpers...sad to see him though but he's doing such good work for his/others cause...

Charlotte Rampling was GREAT!!!
