年輕女演員 Ludivine Sagnier 在她的專訪中, 提到過導演歐容的觀點, 原文節錄如下:

By pairing me with Charlotte in this movie, Francois merges two currents of his cinema. I come from his more stylized current, the conceptual and theatrical one represented by Water Drops on Burning Rocks and 8 Women. Charlotte comes from Under the Sand, a much more intimate film. In Swimming Pool, these two currents clash and electrify each other and the interplay between Julie and Sarah.

Julie is very artificial, verging on vulgar. Sarah is more intellectual and interior. Over the course of the film, we see the two characters confront each other and develop differently: Julie grows introspective while Sarah blossoms physically.

I believe that, with Swimming Pool, Francois wanted to tell a very personal story. About how the boundary between fiction and reality can sometimes be very slight and unsteady. And about creator and muse: how a creator can be overwhelmed by his or her muse and how, conversely, the muse can be completely bled dry by the creator.

總之, 導演融合前兩部作品, 找來原來的女演員, 拍成 Swimming Pool 這部電影, 可說是更為純熟的佳作!!
