Nicolas Roeg directed it -- he also did "Performance" with Mick
Jagger.

I would rather see "My breakfast with Blassie" the spoof by Andy
Kaufman.

I loved "Swimming Pool" because of the young star Ludivine Sagnier.
Voluptuous, yes, but her natural style which is SO different from
the run-of-the-mill Hollywood plastic blondes, is so very refreshing.
I just saw another French film in which the starlette was so
different from the typical Hollywood mold but so natural and good.
It's called "Girls can't swim" ("Les femmes ne savent pas nager"),
starring Isild Le Besco, who has a very unusual beauty but is SO
natural in her acting that you can't take your eyes off of her.
