I bought YSL Libre Le Parfum for myself last Christmas. Loving it. Scent bird has always intrigued me 👀
What is wrong with female nudity? I dont understand your obession with censorship for only women and not men
every time barry keoghan plays a little freak an angel gets its wings
is it just me or did Oliver got hotter the more dominant he went? :D
I honestly like his most innocent role in Banshees of Isheren the best but he slays all of them haha
It's not just you. That seem when he's in the tux telling Elspeth that she is beautiful really did for me. The look in his eye and his dismeanor were mesmerizing, tbh.
@@lamikiminach9503 felt so bad for the fecker in that film, what a pos dad
@@lamikiminach9503That role made me just want to protect him!But he switches so well between the 2 sides.
The interpretation of Duncan not saying anything is that he serves Saltburn. The actual estate. He doesn’t serve the family.
I also saw someone say that Duncan basically IS Saltburn personified.Therefor he wouldn't truly mind who lives there,if they honestly love the place.
also the movie is very much about class and power, even though it’s secondary to the obsession and it not a class commentary on the way most people seem to expect it to be, there’s no denying this information so much about each character. Even an outsider like Oliver is still on a higher social rung than Duncan. As you said Duncan lives to serve and can never dream of shifting into a position with more leverage. Oliver has the vision and the lax morals and conniving nature to be able to pull off what he did but Duncan does not. Duncan is probably scared to step out of line in a way after seeing much more powerful people than him taken out one by one without consequence. At the end of the day there’s no evidence against Oliver, he has nothing more than suspicions and what is he going to do with that? Surely the police won’t care and even if they did, what could they do? No solid criminal case could ever be made against Oliver. So Duncan is protected by his status beneath Oliver and has nothing to gain from turning on him, he would only risk his own life by doing so.
@@limetreess excellent analysis and conveyed so well! Wow!
@@MsAniMo22Yes. Emerald actually said in an interview that Duncan is Saltburn. That he is the soul of Saltburn. It makes sense that he wouldn’t do or say anything…. To an extent. Let’s be honest… he knows every single detail of what’s going on and does nothing. Which just makes the movie that much more WHAT THE FUCK. Which is amazing to me. Even though I have so many more questions then answers 😂😂 Just when I feel like I figured something out… I now have a new WTF?! And I’ve watched it over 20 times now. I stopped counting at 10.
@@Charristar I definitely need to watch it more!
I had a very different take about the family. I don’t think they were good people at all, and I don’t think Felix really cared about Oliver. I think they did a good job at showing this with the mother’s friend Pamela, played by Carrie Mulligan. That whole side plot kind of showed how the family would take in these lost souls and less fortunate friends, for a little while to make them feel better about themselves but then once they got sick of them, just throw them away. It’s heavily implied that Pamela was murdered by the Russian boyfriend, after they made her leave Saltburn when she was hiding from him. And then they had an attitude as if her funeral was so inconvenient.
I believe it was actually implied that she committed unalive. "She'd do anything for attention" etc...
yess that why they got rid of farleigh so easily
I do think we needed the call back at the end to the flat tire scene because that showed that it was his plan from the beginning to infiltrate this family. I don’t think I would’ve realized that and when they again show him spotting Felix across the courtyard it almost makes me think he purposely went to Oxford with the intention of getting close to Felix!
So evil Legally Blonde?? 😂
Maybe I'm wildly off base, but part of the movie felt like a retelling of Poe's Masque of the Red Death. They thought they were safe in their perfect mansion where the world can't touch them, but then an underestimated guest shows up. They had the rooms of many colors with the darkest moment in the red room, followed by black rot. Someone even said Nevermore near the end of being in Saltburn. The deaths felt poetic too, reflecting how the character lived.
There's a lot of literary stuff, actually. The grave scene reminded me of Heathcliff digging up and cuddling with a corpse. Percy and Byron got name dropped.
Wow! That was unexpected and I love it! I see Oliver as some kind of animal/monster/force of nature but it could also be seen as a reckoning. 👏👏👏👏
Saltburn is my favourite movie of the year. Barry Keoghan in particular was mesmerizing
You got good taste!
couldn’t agree more!
‘Night’ Oliver was such a huge surprise for me because he comes off as so meek normally and then, bam!, switch flipped.
It’s like he really was a vampire-the true Oliver only came out at night
@@tsunaidaand he slowly sucked the life out of everyone around him
I noticed that as a family, they never talked about any conflict or the things that were happening. They were in straight up denial, like when Farleigh had to leave the first time, the parents pretended it didn’t happen. Even when Felix died, they refused to talk about it. So I think that helped Oliver get away with some of his acts.
I think Oliver killed Pamela indirectly since she was hiding from her violent ex at saltburn and he put it in motion that she was asked to leave this safe place.
You know, that’s a good point. That’s honestly scary.
that’s a really cool and interesting theory!
He left, his holes, in EVERYTHING
I assumed she had mulled herself but they don’t actually say that. I don’t think anyway
He didn't put that into motion. She was already gone by then. You've mixed up certain parts of the film. The commenter above has a better view.
It’s not a perfect explanation, but when Oliver and Elspeth meet in the present day and talk about James’ death, Elspeth mentions that she’s “surprised he took so long” which seems to imply that he took his own life. The same thing is sort of implied with Pamela when Elspeth says that she would do anything for attention, although I don’t think that’s quite as concrete as James
Duncan IS Saltburn [When Fennell looked for an actor, she chose the one who understood this]. Duncan is the personification of the Estate.
Duncan is only a servant. Servants can NEVER usurp the authority of the Family. Duncan would never overstep his posiiton. He was helpless to the authority of the Cattons.
Right that’s how I took as him being the help and not overstepping his boundaries when it comes to what the family does. He doesn’t have any say. He just does what needs to be done to take care of them and the house.
Completely agree, I think a lot of people take the characters in Saltburn too literally instead of looking at them as symbols. Remains of the day by Kazuo Ishiguro has very interesting commentary on a butler’s role as someone who is more servant than human, even, and I think Fennell was doing something very similar here. He doesn’t interfere because he has no agenda, he has no motives, the estate itself is his only purpose.
I believe when Oliver and Elspeth meet at the end, Elspeth mentions that she was surprised the dad waited so long to do it… so seemed like he ended his own life.
30:15… It seems you have the same impression so many people do about the ending, that Oliver planned the outcome from the beginning. Fennel and Barry have both said that Oliver, while manipulating people throughout these flashbacks, was still making it up as he went. He concocted his next step based on the situation and resources, and the weaknesses of others, but Saltburn wasn’t his endgame for most of the movie.
I saw a really great take that Duncan was more a caretaker of Saltburn, instead of taking care of the Cattons. Thats why he was testing Oliver, and why he was more observing everything. The ventilator scene was the scene for me. I felt so violating, So PERSONAL the way he angrily pulled it out. It just was like a gut punch.
Emerald Fennel said something to the affect of Duncan is A part of Saltburn
I assumed Pamela's ex murdered her because she looked genuinely scared to leave Saltburn. but one of the best lines came out of it when Elspeth said Pamela would "do anything for attention!" Brutal!
I loved Elspeth saying that. I like this theory because it tracks better than what I thought. I thought Pamela might have committed suicide. Either way, I wish there had been more Carey Mulligan.
Elspeth was my favourite character, "men are so lovely and dry"
@@Vitasaurusshe was a bitch but hilarious and iconic 🤣
I really enjoyed Saltburn, but I watched it with my Grandma. Genuinely one of the most uncomfortable movie watching experiences ever. I didn’t know how intense the movie would be.
Oh god 🥲
Lol dang, not the best decision ever
I loved it too- the scene with Alison Oliver in the bathtub at the end was so well done, idk how she wasn’t nominated. Archie Madekwe was on point with every line and even how he moved throughout every scene he was in. So good.
Another example of foreshadowing I loved was after the vampire scene, it showed Oliver in the bathtub with venetias blood all over his mouth… sort of foreshadowing how Venetia dies. Also promising young woman is one of my favorite movies I totally recommend
I would absolutely adore if you did a follow up video where you watch the other movies mentioned (Promising Young Woman, Talented Mr. Ripley, Cruel Intentions) and share your comparison and if you feel like the comparison is accurate or what was different.
Cruel Intentions is a 90s classic. Was inspired from Dangerous Liaisons.
Love Cruel Intentions, rotted and iconic 🤣
I love the Greek mythology in this film.its so smart written. The centaur, the maze, the statues. So many hints, foreshadowing, playing with colors.
Watched it 5 times already and bet it wasn’t the last watch.
Did anyone else notice Oliver smoking a cigarette outside Felix's window after saying he doesn't smoke? My wife immediately noticed. Unreliable protagonist hint?
I watched this last night and found it very similar to "Talented Mr Ripely" (which I still prefer), but I still enjoyed it. I love stalker movies!
Yes!!
i’m so glad you watched it and liked it! also prepare to be obsessed with Cruel Intentions omg
I was definitely obsessed with Cruel Intentions as a teenager lol
@@Jennilynnesame I used to love this movie! If she likes this and I think she’ll love that movie!!
They are both rotted! 🤣 cruel intentions has always been one of my favourites
I took poor dear Pamela’s death as Oliver seeing how little she actually meant to the family. They were done with her and put her back into a dangerous situation. They had a shiny new toy and wanted her out. They also avoided talking about what happened to her. Same thing with Farleigh when he was kicked out. They didn’t talk about it (and Felix dying near the end). I think those things gave Oliver motivation to manipulate his way into the family. The dad, I believe, wasn’t at hand of Oliver either. In my opinion. He paid Oliver off and I think that was enough but after seeing he died, he knew he could get his paws into Elspeth and eventually take over Saltburn.
Also felix threw away Eddie. So Oliver was about to be become the next Pamela or eddie
You've never seen Cruel Intentions?! OMG. 90's classic.
CI and TTMR are only similar on the surface, with the elites at college trope. . I think Donna Tartt’s The Secret History is the most similar theme-wise.
Why would she?? It was directed by a man lol... 🙄
saltburn was soooo good I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!
you have explained this movie PERFECTLY. I am so happy to know I am not the only person who is obsessed with this movie for what it is and not just the shock value. This movie was just so good and I cannot wait to re-watch it! It almost reminds me of the obsession that I developed for Midsommar! Murder on the Dance Floor is my new anthem for 2024. I also bought the StudioHouse Merch as well🤩 Honestly, the end scene is my favorite part in this whole movie... it's like, "you are a pretty fucked up person... but good for you"😂
Iirc there was a deleted scene from the script where Duncan continues to serve Oliver after the Cattons died, and after Oliver has his victory dance scene, he's at breakfast and Duncan serves him, again, runny eggs. Which kinda illustrates Duncan's role as the silent observer who judges but never interferes.
so happy to even see the notif for this video. always happy to listen to your takes, Sarah! ❤
I totally agree that a man could not do what Emerald did here. The nuance with the characters is great and I think she did an amazing job weaving that together.
Many men have done it prior to this film. It's not about gender, it's about skill
@@daynejosephh I disagree, I think the female perspective took the characters to a place that a male perspective would not have. You’re entitled to your opinion, though.
The crossover I needed
Omg I literally watched it yesterday and I LOVED it and today you upload a 30 min video talking about it. I love you Sarah
I'm so glad you loved it!!! I'm also obsessed and have watched it twice. I saw it in theaters and never wanted the movie to end-I just wanted to live in that world with those characters forever lol. I believe he knew that he could manipulate Elspeth into a relationship in the scene where she tells Oliver about Venetia's ED and he tells her that she's beautiful and she's really taken with him and very obviously loving the attention. I think he knew that all he'd have to do is give her that attention and she'd be putty in his hands.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO AND I KNEW THIS WOULD BE THE OUTCOME !!!!! Oohhhh I’m so happy
Personally I loved promisng young woman, though it is very very different from this, I don't know if i would've clocked them being the same director. If it makes sense, i think it's more important for men to watch than women, my partner absolutely adored promisingyoung woman and opened his worldview. Saltburn is so much grander
non-horror sarah is a vibe, we need more non-horror recs!!
You can really tell when a movie is somebody's favorite when they can pick apart the ending like that and still give it a 5/5, lol
YES I have been waiting with bated breath for you to make a video about this one!
I knew you would love this!! So glad you like it!
So glad you made this video as I am also obessed with Saltburn and named it my fav of 2023. I got the pleasure to see this in theaters before the hype train hit so I went in blind except for the 1 trailer I saw, which didn't show alot, and I loved every second. Like you my one complaint was the opening narrartion and the end recap. That opening gave so much away that would have lead to such a big reveal, although Emerald said she wanted the audience to go in not trusting Oliver (so I get it). I feel like with Elspeth, left Saltburn once Sir James passed cause she had no distractions. Pointed out several times the family never sat with any feelings and Oliver played on that giving in every time to her such as the red dinner scene as he keeps trying to take her mind off what was happening in the maze. I think she was more than happy to return to Saltburn with Oliver as she had the "perfect" company, willing to play that game with her that everything is coming up roses. Sir James just died a normal death from what I could tell from the obit stating he passed in 2022 so there was a bigger time jump from when Oliver was forced out and still showing Oliver playing the long game. My fav scene was the ventilator scene but I understand why you didn't like it. This movie was total perfection in my eyes!!
Emerald Fennel watched parasite and thought “let’s add some sin”
I love Promising Young Woman! For her first movie I think it’s insanely good. Such a good watch
Sarah I was SO happy to see this vid posted, I just watched Saltburn tonight!! I thought it was so interesting what you said about the outcome for O being “a perfect storm”, I interpreted O’s desires building and evolving over time and only ending with the whole estate when he felt challenged to see how far he could go!
lunch the morning after was my absolute favorite, heard online each character portrays a different stage of grief and i thought it was so uncomfortable and epic
I can't get over Venetia's suicide. I'm convinced Oliver murdered her as well, but made it out to be a suicide.
The blood also ties back into the whole vampire thing from before. The amount of blood out of the tub is odd. Like, did she supposedly see the blades, get out of the tub with them, slit her wrists, then get back in the tub? Idk, I feel like he could've poisoned her and then did it.
Or she could've found the blades and confronted him, and he overpowered her/knocked her out, slit her wrists, and then put her in the tub. Isn't his bedroom right next to the bathroom?
He does mention she couldn't live without Felix. Which would be a great cover for people just accepting she committed suicide. Oliver is very smart, and I believe he could pull it off. I'm just not convinced she did it.
I wish we knew more about the key points you made, too, especially Duncan. I do feel like since he's been there forever, that's just his role he's used to.. to serve.
He may not have been able to convince elsbeth, and his love for saltburn and his home, he just had to accept defeat. He may not have the power or authority to do anything about it. Or even have anywhere else to go since that's been his life and home for however long. & if no one believed him.
I also wanted to know what happened to Pamela. When I first started this movie, I thought it was going in an entirely different direction.
I guessed Pamela was going to die, but for different reasons. I thought Saltburn was going to be like a place that does sacrifices.
I thought when they brought a new person in (oliver) that they would then sacrifice an older one (like Pamela).
I thought well maybe that's how they achieve their wealth, home, status, and whatever else. Then I realized that something wasn't right with Oliver, and the movie was going a much different route than I originally expected.
I was so excited when I saw this pop up in my notifications 😂 I am also obsessed. I've watched it 4 times.. and will be watching it again and again. The cinematogematography is stunning!!! I actually added the soundtrack to my Spotify. And I'm crushing hard on Barry 😍 Definitely in my top 5 movies.
I watched Saltburn over the weekend and then immediately came to your channel to see if you'd made a video about it. I'm so glad you watched it!
I saw Duncan as the embodiment of Saltburn. He's there to explain the etiquette and making sure everyone follow the rules. He's more pressed with Oliver about the "picking up" protocol than the broken mirror in his room. The first breakfast scene is also interesting: Duncan is there just to brings eggs to the table and when Oliver asks for the whole meal, he could have served him since everything was behind Oliver, but that's not how Saltburn works.
best movie I’ve seen in such a long time! I’m so obsessed and it weirdly became one of my comfort movies so fast. They were all so well casted and Barry Keoghan, especially, was outstanding!
yes!!! i was dying to hear your thoughts on it. one of my favorites of the year for sure
I’ve been waiting for your video on this! I watched it with my mom (😂) over the weekend and we knew NOTHING going in! Loved it though ❤️
Ahhh I’m so happy you love it! Saltburn was the biggest surprise of the year for me. The trailer was so well done cause it turned out to be very different than what I was expecting after seeing the trailer 😂
Totally agree with what you're saying at 16:25 about the intent behind the movie - most of what I've seen online or heard discussed runs along the lines of "Oh this is an "Eat the Rich" movie".. but it's not! It's about obsession (and power, I think) and to me the way Oliver's feelings about Felix get away from him is absolutely fascinating.
it’s pronounced evelyn WAH, and oliver even mentions him in the movie! at the beginning of the movie, after hearing about farleigh’s life, he says it “sounds like an evenlyn waugh novel”
Promising Young Woman was my favorite movie of 2020!
I felt like Saltburn was almost a lose retelling of Wuthering Heights. In Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff is an orphan whose taken in by a wealthy English family that lives on an estate in the english countryside. They're wealthy, secluded, a lot of things that wouldn't fly in society become ok in a setting like that. In Saltburn, our Heathcliff is Oliver and our Kathy is Felix. Oliver and Healthcliff both have an unhealthy obsession with someone and something that isn't attainable to them and tragedy follows. Albeit in Saltburn, it's a bit more intentional from the start. But there's so many similarities between both stories. At the end of Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff does get the estate. But he's haunted by what he's done and all of the horrible things that brought him to becoming what he always wanted to be and that makes him a cold and heartless person, whereas Oliver really couldn't care less because he was cold and heartless from the start. They both manipulate the people they claim to care about in order to get what/who they want. In Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff dig's up Kathy's grave so he can lay with her corpse. Oliver does the same thing, just in a more graphic manner. Farley and Duncan are somewhat reminiscent of the character Hindley (Kathy's brother) who is immediately suspicious of Heathcliff and also bullies him because of his bias against him. I think there's a lot of influences, but I haven't heard much about how similar so much of the story is to Wuthering Heights.
I’d love to hear more about your fragrance hobby, either on RUclips or TikTok! I absolutely love perfume and I love hearing other people talk about the perfumes they love.
Really loved this movie, it has been so interesting to discuss, to analyze, even to laugh at with the reactions to THOSE scenes. Haven't seen such a strong interent reaction to a movie since Midsommar a few years ago.-
- SPOILERS AHEAD-
ABOUT DUNCAN AND HIS ENDING. my perspective.
The film as it is, sort of leaves us in the dark about how Duncan has disappeared... I don't think he has though. He is probably just there, serving Oliver as he did with the family before, almost like a presence which comes with the house. It is true he is distrustful to outsiders, taking notes of Oliver's mistakes.
The original ending showed Duncan there, serving Ollie as he did the family though, so I believe Duncan is somewhere in the house in that ending. Why didn't he do anything about the murders? He has no real power or social currency within the family, also no proof (except for Elspeth I suppose), I don't know if he truly cared about the Cattons, it was not his place to warn them about anything even if he did. People who serve the upper class do not always care about their masters, they care about etiquette, the care about the rules, he certainly looks down on Oliver and his bad manners... but he will serve him, as he should.-
i didnt know i needed a video by her on saltburn
I am shocked you haven’t seen the talented Mr ripley, I feel like its right up your alley! Definitely watch it when u get a chance. I think it’s one of the greatest films of the of that decade
Elspeth says something like “I’m surprised it took him this long” to Oliver when they spoke in the cafe.
I thought that implied James took his own life.
omg I did the same thing as you - watched it for the first time and became obsessed with the soundtrack, rewatched it a week later to catch more details and changed my rating from 4 stars to 5 stars. then watched it AGAIN lmao. it's sooo good... barry keoghan's performance + the soundtrack have my heart.
I watched it on Saturday and I loved it! I can't stop thinking about it. Trying to find the time to watch it again.
incredible review. took the words right out of my mouth. id love to hear more of your non-horror reviews tbh!!
Absolutely my favorite movie rn. Literally obsessed !!!! It ended and I was just literally speechless. Haven’t watched it again yet but I can’t wait. Same feeling I got when I watched Promising Young Woman. Love that movie as well
I saw it opening day in theaters, also couldn’t stop thinking about it, so I went to see it again, and now that it’s streaming, I’ve watched it several more times. Its definitely my #1 movie of the year
I CANNOT get this film out of my head. *ThUs*, the title of this video makes me feel EXTREMELY seen.
You absolutely have to watch 'Promising Young Woman' - it's wonderful!
Venetia's name also foreshadows her death! Venetia=Venice and she dies underwater
I’m still so excited you made a video on Saltburn! I agree that this scene at 26:00 was the most shocking for me too, but I was holding my breath bc I was extremely worried it was going to go an SA route.
One of my biggest critiques of the movie is I wish it didn’t have Oliver’s narration at the beginning, and left it at the end. I feel like the shock would have hit even harder, and with his narration, I just guessed the entire plot of (SPOILER)
.
.
he kills everyone and takes the house lol
I still loved this movie tho and it was my favorite watch of 2023.
I got so excited when I saw this in my feed. This was absolutely my favorite movie of 2023. Barry and Alison particularly were so good and watching you talk about this has made me want to go watch it again.
Evelyn Waugh wrote Scoop which is one of my favorite books. I grew up in South Kensington which is where this crowd all live. Ill check this film out
while i agree it is not a story of “rich people bad”, i think the theme of obsession goes beyond felix and his family, but is meant to represent the cycle of the western class system where we are constantly obsessing over the rich and famous, as you said, idealizing them, and also wanting to BE them. I think the film criticizes both the upper classes, and everyone else who constantly strive to achieve higher status and wealth, using Oliver to show just how psychotic of a person it takes to actually achieve that, lol. Lastly my own interpretation of Duncan was that, as he and Oliver were of somewhat similar status/wealth, he had a deeper understanding of Oliver than the others. I just sort of got this vibe through his subfloors and the way he looks at Oliver that although he doesn’t like Oliver and knows what he is doing, he also shares an ingrained envy/disdain of the Cattons and doesn’t do anything to stop him. I think his glances of hatred toward Oliver are in turn of envy of him, knowing he would be advancing in the class system, whereas Duncan himself could not. I haven’t really heard of anyone else talking about this so it might just be in my head but I think it’s a fun theory.
oh my god you would LOVE the talented mr ripley
Judging by the tittle of this video, i'm also obsessed with Saltburn too😭
So much suspension of disbelief required for this one
YES TO THIS WHOLE REVIEW 🎉❤
I think the movie should have ended at the grave , I was really enjoying the movie until the sister died, even there discussion in the bath tub was amazing, but then just her dying started to ruin it for me, it didn't really feel necessary at all and the same with the ending with the Mum, that felt even more unnecessary. I would have preferred it to end at the grave or like a different ending where say he just moves into the house and stays with the family, maybe having a greater relationship with Venetia. The ending we got with him being a mastermind killer ruined it for me as the movie up until then seemed like a funny story of a great friendship, but instead it was potentially a killer mastermind plan to take over the families wealth. Or potentially this mastermind plan started when Felix 'disowned' Ollie for lying to him about his parents and what not, and Felix was kicking Ollie out the next day after the party, that's when Ollie decided to get some sort of 'revenge' of Felix, but regardless of when he came up with the plan to kill them and take their wealth, the ending just makes the whole of the movie until that point less enjoyable for me because everything I thought was funny and just what I though was happening in general, was actually not that. If I was to rewatch the movie again it wouldn't be the same or enjoyable as the first time I watched it as I would feel different knowing what Ollie does, knowing that was all an act. This ending really ruined it for me
As someone who has always hated tucking shirts, but also always loved fancy belt buckles, I can honestly say that I have been "French tucking" since '96.
I am a horror fan and to see you cover my favorite movie of last year is such a treat ❤️
You have an amazing way of beefing up movies through your reviews. I totally have been on the fence about this and I'm not even done with your video here. I guess I'll see you in a couple of hours....😂
IVE BEEN WAITING TO HEAR YOUR OPINION ON SALTBURN
I’m soooooo happy a horror queen like you loved this movie!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
This is my comfort video
The Ring scene was one of my favs 🖤🖤🖤
I was obsessed too, I had to go back to the theater 2 days after the first time and watch it again bc wow
Pamela: She discusses her Russian oligarch ex a few times, her death could be assumed as murder by the ex or that she relapsed once she was basically thrown out. The quote from Elspeth that "She'd do anything for attention" makes me think relapse and OD, but it could go either way.
You have no idea how excited I am that you're obsessed with this movie!!! It's incredible
Omg the Amanda poster in the background! Love
Would definitely love to hear your thoughts on Cruel Intentions and The Talented Mr Ripley, two of my favorite movies growing up, and I can definitely see elements of both of them in Saltburn
Yes!!! Also, I would LOVE to see more book videos!
IM SO GLAD YOU LOVED IT AS MUCH AS I DID
I love how you point out how "nice and kind" Felix is. I think it's interesting because if you go back and watch the movie again and really listen to what Felix says, he's not actually all that kind. He has a huge savior complex and is very pushy in knowing all the details about Oliver's life. I think that Felix has this kind of "beautiful" and "kind/nice" aura surrounding him because we, as the viewer, are seeing him through the eyes of Oliver who is obsessed with him and therefore is seeing through rose colored glasses. We aren't allowed to see Felix's actions as anything but positive because in a sense, we are also obsessed with him like Oliver.
I’m glad you liked it!
Great review. I enjoyed Saltburn, it was a fun, interesting and wild movie. Great cast, It’s very enjoyable to look at and also just a great soundtrack. My favourite being the track Loneliness that’s played during the birthday party scene, the music combined with the amazing visuals, it’s such an interesting looking mansion and location that they filmed in.
It’s also nice to see Americans discover or rediscover Sophie Ellis Bextor’s Murder on the Dancefloor, that track was huge here in the UK way back in 2002, it was played in every nightclub i went to for ages.
I am obsessed with Saltburn too! I keep telling my friends to watch it so we can talk about it!!
I love your reviews. I also don't like horror movies that have a lot of spicy adult content in my horror so I hadn't really wanted to watch this movie although really curious. So happy you brought that up since not a lot of reviewer do and the shocking seens made it seem like there would be a lot of spice and nud3 scenes and can't wait to watch it now!
OH THANK GOD I’ve been obsessed w saltburn and im so relieved my fav is too :DDD
