A Bigger Splash (2015)


A very enjoyable and well shot film that is all about the acting, Ralph Fiennes is excellent as an irritating music producer. Beautiful scenery surrounds this tale of love and relationships as two uninvited guests infringe on a couples break and disturb their relaxation. Everyone is good and mostly playing against type, but when Tilda Swinton and Fiennes are on screen together it sizzles. Fun, interesting and a nice break from the usual Hollywood love stories probably as it's a remake of a French film.

Like This Watch These: La Piscine (1969) The French original this is based on, IL Postino: The Postman (1994) Another beautiful love story set in Italy, Rust and Bone (2012) A tragic but beautiful story starring the tremendous Matthias Schoenaerts.
