  • Saltburn director Emerald Fennell on the plethora of literary and arts inspirations behind her stunning film Saltburn, in cinemas 17th November. Thank you Emerald for letting me gush about words and pick apart your brain like it was breakfast and thank you Warner Brothers and Tik Tok for this opportunity. (Do forgive me for talking so fast with my silly little accent - I had a lot to say and a very short time slot - and truthfully, I am simply a very fast at my core.)
    Love,
    Dakota x

    After seeing Saltburn I need Emerald Fennel to direct an adaptation of the Secret History. I think she would do it such justice

    you can tell how happy it made her to see someone appreciate all of the details of the film- she looks pleasantly shocked at your enthusiasm and i think that’s so beautiful to see, and so beautiful for you to offer to her in that moment

    i've watched so many saltburn interviews and i just want to say that you have easily asked the most interesting questions i've seen yet. you're commending emerald for her attention to detail, but i think we should take a moment to recognize your ability to pick up on those details that emerald cares so much about and ask questions that were obviously important and meaningful to both of you. you're such a natural interviewer, i only wish that you'd gotten more time

    From the light parody of screwball collage frat movies to The Shining to Romeo + Juliet(1996), to the myths of Icarus & the Stag King, Midsummer Nights to Ophelia, Iago, Macbeth, Hamlet, and Richard the 3rd, and Mary Shelly and Frankenstein, to Bergmans Cries & Whispers to CLUE to The Graduate, to Get Out to Six Degrees of Separation to Great Gatsby to Call Me By Your Name to Harry Fuckin Potter and Oliver Twist. This movie wraps it all up with a dance, bridging American Psycho and Austin Powers The Spy Who Shagged Me.
    And placing all of it- ALL of that culture, under the same roof of a fantasy. The same house of oppression. The same family of white hegemony.

      You forgot the main inspiration/but let's be honest blatant ripoff of 'The Talented Mr Ripley' - copying the protagonist, the plot, the supporting characters, only difference is swapping location Italy for a manor in England. Mr Ripley was a why more superior film, especially the writing, had more depth and not such clueless characters who couldn't work out that Oliver was emulating everyone and a complete weirdo. Just lazy writing. What made Ripley so suspenseful, as he kept on being found out

    I really loved them film despite feeling that the editing at the very very end of it was tonally inconsistent in a way that did not merge well or communicate well. However, I was delighted watching it and thoroughly enjoy appreciating someone else's art even if the entirety of it wasn't for me. Seeing Emerald Fennell so excited and eager to talk about it was heart warming and your interview here is great!

    • @ThestralGlow
      @ThestralGlow 5 місяців тому +6

      @johnking5433 Sure! It seemed quite quickly cut together with these "explanation" shots that suddenly seemed like they felt they needed to explain everything to the audience when for the majority of the movie the tone was ambiguous and mysterious. All subtlety went out the window, the pacing was off, etc... It felt tonally inconsistent and felt less like a climactic energetic ending and more just rushed like the producers told them to cut the run time.

    • @timmeyers6141
      @timmeyers6141 5 місяців тому +2

      @@ThestralGlowI agree. For me, nothing revealed in that sequence was a complete surprise for me. The parts which weren’t confirmed earlier at least provided enough doubt or suspicion to be effective. It seemed like the audience isn’t trusted to put it together on their own. Like someone who tells a funny joke and then explains the punch line. I think the rest of the film was good enough that it didn’t need that. There is possibly some other way to illustrate the act of Oliver confessing everything to Elspeth. As an unreliable narrator, Oliver had already been revealed with the birthday road trip, so it didn’t need to fulfill that function.

    Saltburn reminded me of a novel Emerald Fennell hasn't mentioned (I've watched several interviews with her). I guess that means it didn't offer any inspiration for Saltburn, but it did make *me* go "hmm." I'm talking about The Great Gatsby. Imagine what TGG would be like if Daisy was a man and Gatsby was a sociopathic freak who kicked Nick to the curb in the first 30 pages of the novel.

Emerald didn't mention it because she is trying to distance herself from Ripley as he knows she just ripped it off. Saltburn isn't original. It's been questioned interviews with her, but she shoots it down

      'The Talented Mr Ripley' a movie that came out 25 years ago. Saltburn is a blatant rip off, not original. But Emerald Fennel is writing to make it out that Saltburn was slightly inspired by others fiction, but totally avoids mentioned the movie/book she copied, protagonist, plot, just changed location

    I thought it was interesting that she chose Palissy out of all the artists she could have chosen to highlight for two plot points. An artist who is known for using casts of real animals in his ceramics, resulting in bizarre not quite genuine representations of natural scenes. For my part, looking at and understanding Palissy’s art is essential to my understanding of the film.

    I don't understand tho why they made Jacob Elordi's character read a Harry Potter book on screen, like...how much money did JK terf won with that?!?!??!?!? I was about to watch the movie and I realized that and now I don't know bc I don't want to support that stuff anymore
    It's sad bc I really wanted to see it but now I don't know...

  • @safa69
    @safa69 4 місяці тому +1

    The true immaculate masterind is Mr Tom Ripley. Whom Emerald Fennel writer & director of Saltburn blatantly copied for her protagonist. She denies it interviews when asked. But protagonist,the plot, motivates and side characters all to similar. Only difference is she based it in my manor in England. Saltburn inferior to Talented Mr Rilply.
    Im surprised when Dakota brings up inspiration for Saltburn like 'Brides Head revisited', Emerald admits yes as well as Atonement, Rebecca. But she nshes no mention of 'The Talented Mr Ripley' which he blankety copied not just inspired by
    But Saturn written is weak, no depth, so suspense or tension. All characters are dumb, not one being suspicious of Oliver. This is just lazy written. Saltburn is overrated and only became the talk if town by obvious planted baited shock value scenes to get the buzz out to people talking about it and watching it purely out of curiosity.
