Debut feature film of Roman Polanski

Louis Malle famously said that he prefers the filmgoers to leave the cinema with lots of questions in their heads, rather than answers to all the questions in the film. Polanski has never stopped doing that. Then 29 years old Polanski dubbed the boy's voice himself. This is real cinema. Not to be missed.

In Polanski's feature debut, "Knife in the Water," strange power games were again to the fore, with ridiculous macho rivalries arising when a young looking man hitches a lift with a sportswriter and his attractive wife… Though the plot itself is slim, the film is distinguished by Polanski's precise visuals, which point the shifts in allegiance between the three characters through subtle groupings; impressively, although almost the whole film is situated on a small yacht, the effect is always cinematic rather than theatrical… Polanski's film is implicit, ingenious, mesmerizing, and has artistic integrity… It is filled with a very different sort of suspense…There is no violence… The suspense is hinted at, suggested, refined tautly, glimpsed, did-he-mean-what-I-think-he-meant?

This was Roman Polanski's first, English-language feature and it didn't disappoint. With just three actors and a simple plot, Polanski, in usual fashion, creates an effective, intriguing picture. A couple, looking forward to a day of sailing, picks up a younger hitchhiker and decides to let him tag along on the boat trip too. left from the start, the two men are at odds, continually having a battle of wits, experience, skill…and neither of them willing to back down. Of course, there's a female to "impress" as well. Knife in the Water is really a good study of human interaction, exploring such themes as power struggles, distrust, and relationships. Throughout all this, there is a wonderful underlying tension that never lets the viewer fully relax. And, of course, Polanski's direction is outstanding (even this early in his career) and his decision to use jazz for the soundtrack was a nice touch. Paving the way for his future work, Knife in the Water is definitely a worthwhile experience. (http://imdb.com/title/tt0056291/usercomments Author: Golgo-13)
