The Swimmer

Frank Perry directed this 1968 film starring Burt Lancaster.

Lancaster shines in this drama of a man who decides to swim home from swimming pool to swimming pool in and around Westport, Connecticut. Each new pool reveals more about his past.

Fascinating character study has much to say about the self deceptions and facades we use to get through life.
