Movie - The Swimmer

[Bede735]

I recently watched it on DVD, and Burt Lancaster in the starring role played the entire film in a tight pair of short swimming trunks. But it was made in 1968...

If it was remade today there would be a few adjustments. The star would wear a pair of knee-length board shorts. All the women would be in bikinis, with the 20 year woman, instead of wearing a modest bikini - would probably be in a thong! And the scene where Lancaster appeared in the nude would be cut, as Americans now don't like seeing nudity.
