INFINITY POOL – a film by Brandon Cronenberg – SPOILERS ⁓
Em Foster (Cleopatra Coleman) and her husband James (Alexander Skarsgรฅrd) awaken on a clear morning, and Em is puzzled. “You said you can’t feed yourself with white sand brain death,” she tells James, who shares her puzzlement. “What does that mean? I didn’t say that,” he replies. “But I heard you,” Em continues. “Why are we here? It isn’t helping. You’re so frozen these days. I can’t even tell if you’re sleeping or awake.” They decide to go down for breakfast even if that wasn’t James’ original idea, and we get starkly stunning visuals of the resort where they are staying, beginning with an array of cabanas that bring to mind computer stations. The camera pans upward to show the coastline complete with offshore islands, then, with an Immelman manœuver, gives us a tour of the rest of the resort.
