now when are we going to pull out the literary analysis big guns and talk about how important harry potter is to saltburn’s story and aesthetic???
#like#its the only book any of them are shown reading#the stag imagery#the star tattoos#oxford hogwarts#felix is james and oliver is severus and this is snotter fanfic#saltburn#hp#marauders#BUT ALSO LIKE#i saw someone else complaining that saltburn couldn’t be dark academia bc they were reading hp#but i think it’s perfectly dark academia#like hp there is an over reliance on aesthetics and sentimentality to mask glaring plot holes#and dark academia isn’t actually about Smarts and Ppl Studying it’s about critique elite institutions#a whole year at oxford and felix chooses to reread hp instead of preparing for the next year#(because honestly it doesn’t matter if he even shows up to tutes he’ll at least get a 2.i)#that’s very very on brand#i think there’s also to be said for how much hp is oft called Quintessentially British matching the#Quintessentially Aristocratic Britishness of the Cattons and the Quintessentially class/wealth obsessed Britishness of Oliver#and again again again how deeply flawed hp despite being held up as perfect by some#Fennell was an english student i can’t believe this was just a fluke
