bestie, idk who lied to you, but that film was never meant to be an eat the rich film. there is a huge difference between messaging and setting and I am begging everyone to understand that.
#Saltburn#sometimes#things can have rich people in them#and just be a pulpy gothic romance#and yes I know#the scary commoner turned out to be evil and brought down the poor rich family#I just can't believe all the fuss when Patricia Highsmith is RIGHT THERE#prolific queer writer telling almost the exact same story and everyone loved it#no one is holding the classism torch about Tom Ripley#please I beg of you#sometimes you really can just enjoy things or not enjoy them and move on#I stg a lot of you went into this film demanding it fit into the idea you got from the vague trailer#and then you refused to adjust your expectations when it wasn't that thing at all
