What Parents Need to Know
This review of Swimming Pool was written by Sarah Wenk
Parents need to know that this film contains a lot of nudity, several scenes of explicit sexuality, some strong language and some (mostly offscreen) violence. It is not appropriate for anyone under 17. This isn't really family fare -- it's very sexual, dark, and confusing.
Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about whether they think Sarah imagining what's going on, or if she's creating it for her novel. There is plenty to discuss, but this is probably not the kind of film most parents would feel comfortable watching with their children.

What’s the Story?
Is It Any Good?
Rampling and Sagnier are excellent, but the story becomes so ambiguous and unsettled that it's hard to enjoy it after a while. It's fun to have your assumptions toyed with, but without any resolution, it's simply frustrating. This is a beautifully made film, with ravishing shots of the (often naked) Sagnier in the titular pool, and yet another brave and surprising performance by Rampling. But ultimately it feels like a tease, raising expectations and then leaving them dangling.
