Annette Bening stars as the real-life athlete and sports journalist Diana Nyad, who swam from Cuba to Florida nonstop at age 64.
Long-distance swimming in open water presents challenges beyond the physical grind. Think sharks. And venomous jellyfish. Those are just two of the potentially fatal problems Diana Nyad must contend with swimming from Cuba to Florida — nonstop and unaided — with only a support boat by her side to monitor her progress and squirt water and other nourishment down her throat every so often. Adapted from her memoir, the Netflix movie “Nyad,” starring Annette Bening, charts her arduous journey.
How does Diana deal with emptying her bowels over a two-day journey while wearing a standard swimsuit, or does this bodily function pause while she’s burning through that many calories? How do they ensure she doesn’t fall asleep or pass out? What happens to human skin when it’s submersed in salt water for that long? The movie envisions what it might have been like when she starts to hallucinate, but otherwise her psychological state of mind is given short shrift.
