    Barry’s pretty 20-40 year old face being appreciated is a mood. I’m obsessed.

    Oliver saw Felix and fell instantly. He started manipulating their meeting from that point on. The young man was disturbed to begin with because he was already lying like massive lies to his parents, for no reason other than praise. So being a habitual liar, he was already going to do that to whoever he did fall in love with. And it wasn’t until Felix rejected him that he realized he was willing to kill them to keep Felix in his life. He needed to have him, because he’s a sociopath and that’s love right? And he planned it all. Little heartbroken devil.

      No he isn’t a sociopath, he’s a psychopath to keep everything in placed. He’s abandoning his old past to find a new past for a better future. He was eager to make a perfect idea in order to make Felix get into him. He cried angry to do what he must do to Felix since’s his love is broken by Felix. He’s not a little heartbroken devil, he’s a little devil who broke the victims hearts. He got everything he checked on, nice and easy.

    I cried too at the scene in the maze when Sir James was talking to Felix & then saying "help me move him..." That was so well acted!... Then I was laughing my head off one minute later during the next scene at the dining table. Being from England I can completely understand the lack of emotion at the dining table (except from farleigh). I actually felt sorry for Farleigh at this point.
    I LOVED Saltburn. I'm not saying that the story was in any way realistic, but a film (or any type of art) doesn't have to be realistic I just completely enjoyed the spectacle anyway. It was an entertaining Gothic fairytale ❤

      The Cattons are so disrespectful for denying Felix’s demise. Yes I really felt bad for Farleigh so much and a black footman named Liam. He ran away with so much sadness and distraught because it’s hopeless to see the Cattons so cold, heartless, apathetic, and cruel, even they have lost interests to him and his job mates. He couldn’t take it anymore, he wanted to help Farleigh, be real for Felix, to find something’s wrong with them, and break his silence but the Cattons are way too much for him. 😭

    Oxford is one of the most prestigious universities in the world. This is Oliver's first day in 2006; the movie opens with a quick reference to the past. Years have taken place as the narrator speaks of his first feelings for Felix as the film begins. will take place as the narrator refers to this opening scene and the way he felt about Felix in the past tense. Not trying to be an obnoxious know-it-all. I wish I could have watched your comment live and had a DL to help out. I write this with only minutes in. I love your enthusiasm. I am watching a lot of the commentaries about Saltlick. You go, girl, I hope you get this off the ground.... Oh, this scene with them in the room talking about literature is a common way for the teachers' pets in English Universities to bring their best together and let them critically criticize them for them all to see how other intellectual persons think. There is usually more than one way to be correct. It also brings out hostility and jealousy among the group as it, over time, reveals what the "best" one is because, based on grades, they probably have all the highest ones. This allows other, more subjective ways to analyze the members of the group. Oh, yes, I forgot. The reference to the jacket will be the first snide remark regarding classism. Oliver is not of the same high class as Felix and his surrounding groupies.

      @@makenziejanel From a British perspective, calling Oxford "London" would be like a British person calling Harvard "New York." It's a bit too _much_ of a generalization. Oxford and Cambridge are the English equivalents of Harvard and Yale. That said, I loved your overall reaction, you really got this film, so I don't think it makes sense to dwell on that single mistake.

    Apparently in the UK you say “class of 2006” and if means they start in 2006. This movie is meant to be 2006-2007 (until the end). Makes sense since they’re watching Superbad over the summer and with some of the songs playing - although I think Superbad still came out a few months later than that point, but it’s at least more believable than if it had been like 4 years off 😅

    I don’t know people don’t think of Jaws when we see Oliver under the water with a bloody mouth and that music playing. First thing that came to my mind. He’s the shark at this point if you didn’t know it. The predator.

    The scene where you were confused about where they take exams and if they graduated, no, they just finished the first term of their first year. This opens up the term break for where Oliver is to go as he has supposedly learned his father has died and his mother won't miss him, and since he is again apparently an only child, he is depressed, alone, and has nowhere to go until school starts back. You keep making statements about needing help understanding what is wrong with getting a scholarship or caring about whether his clothes are designer. I'm going to make a leap and say that since you just turned 20 and are an American, that is not aware of many English/European/ and many families of "old" money worldwide attitudes concerning wealth and class, and who is allowed "in" that you cannot understand why this is happening. Since there was a distinction, it is simply a type of discrimination against the haves and the have-nots in all cultures. It's power and keeping the wealth and the power to the ones that have it and not letting any new classes in. You are correct in that it shouldn't matter, but to this upper echelon, it very much does. If you are not born into the same class, you will never be accepted. This is slowly changing; at least our American employment and other socially impacted law governments don't allow "isms" of almost any type. This movie, however, shows this in spades and is central to the story.

      Thanks for the info! I figured it was a classism/elitism issue but I just wanted to offer my thoughts on why it’s all so stupid.
