Ludivine Sagnier (“Swimming Pool”, 2003)

François Ozon’s psychological thriller masterfully balances two competing appeals: the intricately woven mystery plot with its shocking twists and Ludivine Sagnier’s almost mythical allure as she lounges by the pool in her black and white bikini.

The swimsuit itself recedes behind Sagnier’s captivating screen presence – she embodies both youthful sensuality and dangerous mystery, making each of her appearances as compelling as the film’s central enigma. A perfect fusion of style and substance in European cinema.
