Genuinely strange, brilliant conceit tying the scenes together and awesome photography.

By today's standards, there are a lot of cliche montages, slo-mo romantic field runs, melodramatic speechifying, etc. But in context, this is an interesting and opinionated literary adaptation with a key performance by Lancaster. Very good use of color, an excellent score, and some nice low angle and reverse shots as Burt's compulsive swim into his past falls apart.

This film is quite different but also quite good in a surreal sort of way. Burt Lancaster is excellent as a character who decides to swim home one day, going from pool to pool in order. As he swims through each pool he sees stories of his past coming to life in front of him, all of which lead towards home. With fine performances from the rest of the cast and some solid direction, The Swimmer is a fine film and well worth a watch for any fan of offbeat cinema.

If you want different, this is the movie to see. Moments of surrealness and the beautifully structured story of one man's odyssey to recapture his life, that subtly reveals the truth as the hero, Ned Merrill, makes his way home by swimming through all his neighbours pools. Funny, moving, and conclusively harrowing.

Beautifully shot and executed, the effort is generous with disturbing, puzzling behavior, yet wise enough to provide clear clues to aid interpretation.
