"Poseidon Adventure" I believe has shelley winters or her husband drowning
under water trying to swim to a safe point.I'm sure there are many people
shown drowning in this film. Also that cheeseball film "Titanic" has people
drowning. There is also "To die for" with Nicole Kidman frozen under water.
I think the dead zone with Christopher walken has a boy drowning in the
beginning of the film. Peter Greenaway's "Drowning by numbers". There is one
more film I just saw recently called Les Femmes Douce by Claude Chabrol.
There is a very disturbing scene in a public pool where these two obnoxious
guys keep dunking this girls head into the water. If I recall correctly you
see her under the water struggling to breathe. You think they are going to
kill her but someone finally stops their torture game.
Hope this helps
