La Piscine

Rich French people laze about a swimming pool. A guy who looks like Chief Justice John Roberts shows up at the country villa of his friend, who looks like Rob Lowe. Roberts has his daughter with him (who is "of age," as they say), and Lowe has his girlfriend with him. The characters toy with each other in a "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" kind of way, and there are myriad uncomfortable silences of nothing but the four characters eyeing each other. Not my cup of tea -- no wait, that's English -- It's not my haute cuisine.
