Let’s not bury the lead: we’re screening aquatic thriller Swimfan on 35MM!
We love that Jesse Bradford has become part of illustrious alumni as this is the third film in our series, he has starred in. His is the perfectly charming cusper, always memorable and beloved. It will be fun to see this sweet-faced actor fall from grace and scramble to keep his reputation from drowning. Though some of the beats in Swimfan are similar to Fatal Attraction (1982) and though it has homages to the sexy suspense, it is its own thing, and the twists and turns will take you on an exciting ride that will make you obsessed with it. Don’t let its high school setting fool you: it pulls no punches as it ups the stakes of stalking and frenzied infatuation. Don’t miss this event. We know you’re dying to see it! (Vanya Garraway)
