The Lifeguard Ratings & Reviews
- Ricardo Arnaz CPA, ACCA USN-retired10 kwietnia 2026A little bit on the artsy side but takes place in my old town, Ridgefield, CT. Hometown of the writer & director Liz Garcia whose father I knew. Bell is in an early mid-life crisis at almost 30 and leaves NYC to go home to the suburban Ridgefield, CT (on NY border, battle site in American Revolution, wealthiest 250 USA town). Her boyfriend was fooling around with her as she finds out he is engaged to be married soon. A story she wrote on a caged tiger in a NYC apartment resonates with her as she feels she is trapped as the baby tiger was and needs an escape. She goes back to her high school job as a lifeguard at the town's condo community. She starts hanging out at her old high school haunts and with high school kids. Then she starts an affair with a 16-year-old. Soundtrack is very indie band as heard a few groups. The movie resonates with me as I had my weekend home in Ridgefield. I was making high 6 figures before 30, so filed for divorce moved to that home to reassess and put my life in a new direction and do a lot of charity work.
