Friday evening was certainly a busy night for premieres at the BFI London Film Festival with the premiere of HIGH-RISE happening and also Luca Guadagnino’s A BIGGER SPLASH premiere was also taking place.
Luca Guadagnino’s remake of Jacques Deray’s La Piscine has been well-received during the festival circuit and with an outstanding cast including Ralph Fiennes, Tilda Swinton, Matthias Shoenaerts and Dakota Johnson it is not hard to see why.
Marianne (Tilda Swinton) is a glittering rock star on a hiatus with her filmmaker lover Paul (Matthias Schoenaerts). Recovering from an operation on her throat, she has retreated from both the public gaze and her performance persona (an androgynous cross between Mick Jagger and David Bowie). Poolside, stripped naked in the scorching Italian sun and seemingly at ease, the lovers are completely unprepared for the sudden arrival of cocky music producer Harry (Ralph Fiennes) and his recently discovered daughter, the petulant and sexy Penelope (Dakota Johnson). Some clothes get ripped off, while others get put back on in this deliciously overheated drama with a dangerous edge.
Ralph Fiennes and director Luca Guadagnino gushed about their new film on the red carpet. Take a look at their interviews below:
