Emerald Fennell, celebrated for her Oscar-winning “Promising Young Woman,” takes on another ambitious project with “Saltburn.” This modern interpretation of “The Talented Mr. Ripley” delves into the complexities of human behavior within privileged circles, challenging societal norms. Fennell’s direction, complemented by lush production values, crafts a wickedly mean and surreal narrative. Barry Keoghan’s unsettling performance as Oliver Quick infiltrating Jacob Elordi’s aristocratic world intensifies the film’s tension. Despite maintaining amusement and provocation, Fennell’s inclination to overexplain during the denouement slightly diminishes the narrative’s impact, departing from the tantalizing ambiguity seen in her earlier work.
