La Piscine (1969)

Description

Jacques Deray's 1969 classic La Piscine is set in a magnificent villa near a sun-drenched St. Tropez, wherte Jean-Paul (Alain Delon) and Marianne (Romy Schnieder) are spending a happy, lazy summer holiday. Their only concern is to gratify their mutual passion - until the day when Marianne invites her former lover and his beautiful teenage daughter to spend a few days with them. From the first moment, a certain uneasiness and tension begin to develop between the four, which soon escalates in a dangerous love-game. Beautifully shot, and with music composed by three-times Academy Award-winning Michel Legrand, the slow burning, sensual thriller is now available for the first time on DVD. This release features a brand new restoration of the film.
