Swimming Pool French psychological thriller that's better as a character study.

Plot Keen to write something other than her best-selling series of detective novels, English author Sarah Morton (Rampling) takes a long working break at her publisher's French villa. However, her peace is abruptly shattered by the arrival of said publisher's promiscuous teen Verdict Identity. Basic. Now this. Too many films this summer are constructed around a clever twist that actually undermines the logic of what we’ve been watching. Better as a character study than a slice of intrigue.
