- The final scene of Saltburn, in which Oliver dances around the titular estate to "Murder on the Dancefloor," has a deeper meaning than it may seem.
After successfully inheriting the Saltburn estate from Felix's mother, Elspeth, upon her passing, *Oliver giddily dances around the Saltburn mansion to Sophie Ellis-Bextor's 2001 pop hit, "Murder on the Dancefloor" in the one-shot* *final scene* of *Saltburn*. The scene became a viral sensation on TikTok, causing the 23-year-old song to start charting again after *Saltburn*'s release. However, the meaning behind both the song choice and Oliver's dance attire goes way beyond its pop culture relevance.

Murder on the Dance Floor is the new Running Up That Hill
Right?? You’re so right!!!
Can anyone explain why?
@@music94206
Because it’s getting a revamp of attention, after 20 years, it has a whole new generation of fans!! (TikTok too) ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Someone called this “the Kate Bush effect”, lol!
@@music94206Because the song “running up hat hill” was poplar in the early-mid eighties when it first came out, and then again a few years back because it was on stranger things. Same thing here. Except murder on the dance floor didn’t peak in the US until this film…
SPOILER! I can’t agree he had intended to acquire their fortune from the very beginning, no… to infiltrate yes, but it’s far more likely and logical to assume that his plans evolved as he went along ! The dance is also symbolic of that, as he improvised and reacted to the situations that presented themselves at each step!
I agree! The film wasn't about that, and everything doesn't "suddenly make sense" with that ending, it makes loads of stuff not make sense
I agree! I think he genuinely wanted his friend's love and amity. Sure, he was willing to use lies and trickery to carve himself a place in that cool guy's life, but he did not plan to kill him or anyone else at first. He loved that guy to the point that he literally drank his bath water! It's only after his lies about his family situation were exposed that he decided to kill him.
Oliver's thing for Felix wasn't real love. It was more like how people obsess over celebs - all about the image and the vibes, not the real person behind it all. Seeing Pamela get the boot by Elspeth after hanging around too long, and Farleigh always having to grovel for more favors, Oliver got the message loud and clear. Farleigh's blunt warning that Oliver couldn't just waltz back in because he wasn't family really hit home.
@@manga626 Let's agree to call it "obsessive infatuation".
I completely agree. His speech is unreliable, he’s looking back and saying he planned it all but he leaves out the bits that don’t fit that narrative. He was bobbing and weaving the whole time. He’s resourceful but not the mastermind he claims to be.
It was the perfect ending to the film. It shows his power and satisfaction of his conquest. When you own the house, you can do whatever you want to do!
This is the most meandering explanation I've heard today.
it's boring.
shallow and obvious. clearly written by AI.
What a wild ride of a movie 😂
I think the final scene is his own mind trying to frame everything he's done as some grand plan or that he's some mastermind when the reality is he couldn't have either of the siblings so he moved onto the saltburn estate as his next obsession discarding pretty much the whole family
Saltburn has many references. Another Country comes to mind, with a Rupert Everett look alike, what Downtown Abbey might have ended up as in an 80s setting and the Flashdance inspired dance scene with an amazing dance track.
Most people listening to the song because of the movie
Me watching the movie because of the song!
This song is 20 + years old but, this is the first I've heard of it! 😮
I just learned this today, Murder on the Dancefloor was released December 2001. WOW!! i had no idea
Me too!!! Never heard the song back then!
I remember it but i don't think it was that successful when it came out was forgot about within a year or two. I always thought it was a fun song.
She was Dua Lipa 22 years ago or maybe Dua Lipa it’s her now.❤
❤Barry is absolutely gorgeous❤And supertalented actor❤Oscar winner in the making❤love from Finland❤❤❤
I SAW this film and I knew NONE of this!?! ha!! I came here because I was trying to figure out when the song Murder on the Dance Floor came out.
The narrator have said it came out in 2001.
@@mamadee1971 yes i got that :-)
Have you never used Google before?
@rk1356 have I used Google before? Yes, everyday, hot stuff
The title of that Shakespeare play with Benedick & Beatrice comes to mind...
'Deeper meaning' - ? I think people get the meaning without explanation
So sick of these fast robotic narrations. Just souless
I don't think he had a master plan from the beginning. He was just a strange lonely loser and then Felix was kind to him and Oliver became obsessed. Then it just snowballed.
And hers me thinking the dance scene was a reference to Pan
barry's sauage is huge😂😂😂😂
I was shook by how thick he is.
Brilliant Film!
@@@ NO DANCE SCENE HERE!@@@
Should Oliver have evaded justice for what he did? were you on his side?
Makes me wanna learn how to do professional dancing.
I know!! I need to learn some Line Dancing!! It looks like great fun!!!
This is so similar to Agatha Christie's story Endless Night. 😮
What happened to all the help? That butler?
Dog marking a tree
A spoiler alert would’ve been appreciated ffs
😂😂 silence of the lambs
Ridiculous movie. Good song.
Ridiculous?! You’re crazy
yap yap yap. No dancing.
Does anyone else find the song choice too obvious ? It makes it boring and onedimensional and blunt somehow.
I think it’s just you rn
Couldn't be more era appropriate to match the soundtrack
What a vapid and derivative story, this ending made me yawn and this 'video' doesn't change my mind. Trying to pretend it has something meaningful to say, similarly like The Menu. Go watch 'Parasite' for or The Talented Mr Ripley to see what nuanced and thought provoking films can look like.
The last scene was the best of the movie…the movie was one of the worst I’ve seen in a while
A bit like Meghan Markle, if she was intelligent. We all know how that went.
Ha Ha!! Good one!!!👍🏼👍🏼
She was already rich and famous
@@thewintersoldier383 Compared to Royalty?!? You must be joking! 🤣🤣🤣
@@cilajoao1 royalty? Lol normal humans?
@@thewintersoldier383 The vile creature was human already, she wanted the status. Are you 5?
