The vitals:
7:00 ~ Doors
7:30 ~ A BIGGER SPLASH

A melancholy and luminous Tilda, a pre-Madame Web Dakota (yes that’s how it’s measured), a fucking delightfully unhinged Ralph, and Generic Hot White Guy fall into a pool…

Summer’s over, in Austin and in your mind. You can still sip a margarita in the sun, but that errant crisp breeze somehow equals sadness in a way it didn’t just three weeks ago. Our guy Luca adapts Jacques Deray’s iconic La Piscine and, to be quite harry, ratchets up almost every single thing that works about the menacing, alluring original.

Potent and portentous love games, stunningly lush shot-on-location photography, and (it bears repeating) a masterclass in loving your job from Mr. Fiennes wait you in the heat, slicked in the perfect sheen of sweat. See you poolside! —David McMichael
