For episode 70 of In Film We Trust, we’re welcoming on another special guest: Felicia of the Seeing Faces In Movies Podcast, who is entrusting us with the task of deep diving her favourite film of all time, The Swimmer (1968). Released on the cusp of the New Wave movement that would come to define the following decade’s cinematic output, it stars Burt Lancaster, owner of one of Hollywood’s most famous smiles, as a man deciding to swim home via the various pools of his well-to-do neighbourhood. On the surface it appears to be a story of bottomless drinks, countless backyard parties and increasingly rude neighbours, but dig deeper and a far more sinister picture emerges. And dig deeper we shall! So don your finest swimwear, top up your gin and tonics and come with us as we navigate the perilous twists and turns of the Lucinda River.
