‘A Bigger Splash’ Trailer: Tilda Swinton And Ralph Fiennes Have Some Fun In The Sun

The new A Bigger Splash trailer comes from U.K. distributor Studiocanal. A Bigger Splash is a remake of the 1969 French film La Piscine.
A Bigger Splash debuted at Venice this year to strong reviews. Fiennes in particular is getting a lot of praise, as in this glowing writeup from The Telegraph: “Fiennes is majestic as this rapturous alpha-prat, who swans around with his tasteful shirts unbuttoned to the navel, recounts past glories ad nauseum … and elevates dad-dancing into a kind of performance art.”
And fans of I Am Love should be very happy to hear Guadagnino hasn’t let go of his sensual sensibility. Writes TheWrap, “[I]f you loved I Am Love for the food, there are some moments involving the creation of daiquiris and ricotta cheese (separately, thank goodness) that will capture your attention.”
In A BIGGER SPLASH, the lives of a high profile couple, a famous rock star and a filmmaker, (Matthias Schoenaerts and Tilda Swinton) vacationing and recovering on the idyllic sun-drenched and remote Italian island of Pantelleria are disrupted by the unexpected visit of an old friend and his daughter (Ralph Fiennes and Dakota Johnson) — creating a whirlwind of jealousy, passion and, ultimately, danger for everyone involved.
