...part of the fun of this movie is its ready movement between the worlds of fantasy and reality. Unexpected things keep happening at such a clip that by the time we visit Alba to find her roller skating around the vast apartment while her lover cuts onions in a snorkel and face mask, we are ready to accept them.

...course, there have been excuses, and one or two of them may have been justified. Last year, for instance, the Tigers surprised the heavily-favored Crimson by showing up with flippers and snorkel gear and then moving the game to the lost continent of Atlantis, hidden somewhere on the Princeton campus.

Next morning, a disappointed and weary Scoones was shaken out of bed by an excited islander. A full-grown coelacanth had been caught, he was told. It was still alive, lashed under a fisherman's canoe. With only a mask and snorkel, Scoones ventured underwater to free his battle-fatigued quarry, then nudged the fish into a current.
