Saltburn
(2023)
Marla Grayson is an intelligent, ballsy, determined, charming, 4-steps ahead kind of person. She knows the law around elderly care very well and she uses that to her advantage. She is ruthless because she has been burned before in this game of being rich and powerful. She has the right amount of recklessness to take risks and she doesn't care or think that heaven and hell exists or there is something after death. She obviously has selective empathy because even though she abuses elder people she cares about her girlfriend, her employee, and her doctor friend who is killed.
Here is the thing.There are movies like these with male white protagonists all over hollywood. Its a very American and very capitalistic movie. While I like her abilities and the way she uses her skill set and Rosamund Pike does a very good job, she uses it in an immoral and unethical context. She is a bad person who simply happens to be a lesbian. Anyone can be a bad person, even minorities. So its not right to root for her and it makes sense that she is killed the way that she does (although I do admit she shouldn't have been shot by that misogynistic piece of crap who threatened to rape her, it sends a bad message.)
It doesn't have a msg per say, I guess the only thing I took away is that American legal system is so crappy that anyone can tale advantage of it and capitalism is ruining everything there.Oh and yeah be somewhat like Marla Grayson in a moral, ethical context. And maybe get her wardrobe.
Its just another movie. A popcorn watch if you will.
