A Bigger Splash director Luca Guadagnino writes for MovieMaker Magazine about his intention behind his film, a remake of the classic 1969 French film La Piscine.
“I wanted to create a visual language that could, in a way, keep up with the f***ed-up anxieties of my characters,” he writes. “The camera is a barometer or thermometer, an instrument checking the temperature of their emotional status. Sometimes it’s frantic and sometimes it has a more relaxed paced, but it often has a piercing gaze that I wanted to achieve.”
