This month, we offer a French film named “La Piscine”, or “The Swimming Pool”, subtitled in English.
- Director: Jacques Deray
- Main actors: Alain Delon, Romi Schneider, Maurice Ronet, Jane Birkin
Lazily tanning themselves and splashing around in a grand swimming pool in a villa that overlooks the French Riviera landscape, Jean-Paul (Delon) and his girlfriend (Schneider) have no definite plans for their summer.
Jean-Paul is a would-be writer who has acquiesced to the disappointments in life by taking a job at an ad agency. Marianne, who was once a successful journalist, is now between jobs and has taken to lounging around on what seems a permanent vacation.
Their idyllic lives are interrupted by the sudden arrival of their longtime friend Harry (Maurice Ronet). Harry has brought along his 18-year-old daughter Penelope (Jane Birkin) and the four settle down for what is expected to be a simple stay-over.
