The Swimmer is a 1968 American surrealist-drama film starring Burt Lancaster.[1] The film was written and directed by Academy Award-nominated husband-and-wife team of Eleanor Perry (screenplay adaptation) and Frank Perry (director). The story is based on the 1964 short story "The Swimmer" by John Cheever, which appeared in the July 18, 1964, issue of The New Yorker.[2] The 95-minute movie adds new characters and scenes consistent with those in the original 12-page short story.
