1. • • Yes, Saltburn is a period piece, and a deliciously tactile one at that. Its sense of place is an unlikely vessel for yet another “eat the rich” satire. But Saltburn is refreshingly free from the self-righteousness that plagues so many contemporaries. If there’s truly no ethical consumption under capitalism, then we might all be devils in disguise.

   Is Saltburn a satire?

   • In an interview, Fennell said that “Saltburn” is “a satire about our fixation with films like this” — hence the imperious strains of “Zadok the Priest” right from the start.

   Is Saltburn a good movie?

   • Critics compared it, unfavorably, with “Brideshead Revisited” and “The Talented Mr. Ripley,” citing its mishandling of class anxiety, its failure to adequately excoriate the rich and, perhaps most of all, the feeling that it was trying too hard to be shocking. Then, just before Christmas, “Saltburn” dropped on Amazon Prime Video.

   Does Saltburn whitewash the uglier side of the upper class?

   • But critics are right that “Saltburn” whitewashes the uglier side of the upper classes. Maybe it’s because, like Elspeth, Fennell has a “complete and utter horror of ugliness.” Or maybe it’s because she herself is one of them. For Fennell is the daughter of society jeweler Theo Fennell, whose clients include Elton John and Madonna.
