The Swimmer (Movie History, Plot Breakdown, & Pairings)

  • Summary

  • This week we are covering one of Spike's favorites, "The Swimmer." Starring Burt Lancaster and directed by Frank Perry, this film is so strange and doesn't really fit in with its contemporaries. We discuss the film in its entirety and cover the troubled production including the director being fired and the various problems along the way. We end the episode with a pair of double bills for your viewing pleasure.

    Thank you so much for listening!
