It was such a pleasure talking to Emerald Fennell, the Oscar-winning writer/director of “Promising Young Woman.” She’s back with the deliciously sexy gothic thriller “Saltburn” with Barry Keoghan’s star-making turn as the mysterious Oliver.
In this interview, Fennell talks about the impetus of “Saltburn,” working with young actors Keoghan and Jacob Elordi, and why you won’t look at a bathtub the same way ever again.
“Saltburn” is now showing in theaters nationwide.
I always enjoy talking to Rosamund Pike. She’s always a fun interviewee with a keen sense of her work. In “Saltburn,” the Oscar-nominated actress stars as Lady Elspeth Catton, the lady of the gothic manor called Saltburn.
I spent some time with Pike to talk about her interest in making the film, her character, and working with both Barry Keoghan and Jacob Elordi.
“Saltburn” from writer-director Emerald Fennell also stars Richard E. Grant, Alison Oliver, and Carey Mulligan.
