Tara Erickson, John Humphrey, & Jon Maturan react to Saltburn (2023), the provocative erotic thriller written and directed by Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman, Killing Eve). Shrouded in secrecy and buzz ahead of its release, Saltburn is positioned as a darkly seductive psychological descent into obsession, privilege, and power within Britain’s elite upper class. The film centers on Oliver Quick (Barry Keoghan – The Banshees of Inisherin, The Killing of a Sacred Deer), a socially awkward Oxford student who becomes dangerously infatuated with the effortless charm and wealth of his classmate Felix Catton (Jacob Elordi – Euphoria, Priscilla). When Oliver is invited to spend the summer at Felix’s sprawling family estate, Saltburn, he’s drawn into a world of excess, manipulation, and unspoken rules—where fascination curdles into something far more unsettling. The ensemble deepens the film’s menace and allure, including Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl, I Care a Lot) as Felix’s icy, enigmatic mother; Richard E. Grant (Can You Ever Forgive Me?, Loki) as the aristocratic patriarch; Alison Oliver (Conversations with Friends) as Felix’s sharp and perceptive sister Venetia; and Archie Madekwe (Midsommar, Gran Turismo) as Farleigh, whose presence complicates the estate’s delicate social hierarchy. With Emerald Fennell’s signature blend of razor-sharp dialogue, moral discomfort, and lush visual storytelling, Saltburn has shaped up to be one of the most talked-about thrillers in recent years —inviting audiences into a world where beauty, desire, and cruelty exist side by side.
