Saltburn Interview: Jacob Elordi Calls Barry Keoghan "Pure Electricity"

- Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan are on fire in Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn. Both play characters presenting themselves as one thing when, in reality, questionable qualities and/or motives lurk beneath the surface.
The film begins with Keoghan’s Oliver, a student struggling to fit in at Oxford University. But, that all changes when Elordi’s Felix Catton takes a liking to him and, eventually, invites Oliver to spend the summer at his family’s estate, Saltburn. While there, Oliver lives a life of opulence and debauchery while navigating the politics of the Catton family and their social scene.
With Saltburn now playing in select theaters and due out nationwide on November 22nd, I got the chance to chat with Elordi and Keoghan about their experience working together as scene partners, their characters’ true intentions, and that unforgettable ending.
Hear all about it straight from Elordi and Keoghan in this Saltburn interview!

they have so much charm and chemistry, the film was incredible, haven't stopped thinking about it since i watched it
Same here :) I’m obsessed with it
Weird movie. Oliver the main character was a psychopath.
@@paulchristian7693yes but it was still a good movie
Same ❤
I literally stopped thinking about that freak show of a movie as soon as possible
Both actors are amazing, but Keoghan transcended acting itself. What a fearless performance.
That’s what I keep saying, just stunned.
“Fearless “ is exactly the word I’d use. Especially when I found out the grave scene was all Barry and it was Improv! Iykyk
@@tinker_belle41the cinematography in this movie was fucking beautiful I was literally crying at how vibrant the shots were
Agreed!
I’m surprised to hear an interviewer with actually good questions and not just “what drew you to the script” or whatever
The sexuality of these two actors was crackling between them and didn't need anything physical to happen between them in order to see it or feel it. They both seem to be very comfortable in who they are, without any embarrassment in what their scenes implied, and that made the sexual tension all the greater. The actors and Emerald have it spot on. And by the way I understood ALL of the controversial scenes in the movie and found them edgy but fully what someone with an obsession for another person would do in the shadows. Oliver's nude dance scene at the end was absolutely lovely, a beautiful male naked body dancing without any shame was simply gorgeous to watch. BTW, I am a 71 year old widow.
need two of them in the same movie again
Definitely 🎉
I want to be that movie
Jacob is very cerebral without being arrogant, I didn't realise he was only my age. That really shocked me bc he doesn't act with the arrogance of a lot of young actors. He just seems chilled out and passionate about his craft.
Barry is a fucking firecracker, I can't wait to see him explore more roles with the intensity+attention to detail that he brings. He could take any character or story and make it worth watching, he's phenomenal.
I actually hope they work together again at some point, which I don't usually say about actors. I think they have a really unique chemistry+synergy that translates well through film.
One of my favourite films of the year due to Emeralds unhinged style and these 2 acting powerhouses.
I’m super excited to see his take on the joker
Wonderfully said 🔥🥰
Beautifully said!
That’s because he’s Australian, that’s how we roll down here.
I hope these two are in something again one day, something just as shocking & enthralling as Saltburn.
Two generational actors, what a movie.
you can tell the interviewer is a genuine fan, she did a great job asking interesting questions and exactly the stuff I wanted to know!
I LOVED in the movie when Oliver would shrink himself down to draw less attention. Even in the hallway when talking to the girl who he ends up making out with in his dorm, he’s shrinking up on the stairs. Do not pay attention to him. At breakfast in Saltburn, he’s so shrunken down when Duncan’s angry about the eggs. By the end of the movie, Oliver doesn’t shrink himself down, he’s completely naked, standing tall, and even dancing. He takes up space! One of my favorite details in the movie!
Absolutely love Barry!! And I was quite surprised by the chemistry between him and Elordi. Hope they do another movie together.
I think this is the first interview about a movie that its not repetitive, the questions were fantastic, nice job!!
Their banter is immaculate
Jacob is so old Hollywood handsome whilst Barry is every blue eyed Irish seraphim Ive ever fallen in love with my whole life. The way they look at each other is tense for the viewr. Or at least me. Kinetics, kinetics, kinetics there is energy.
LOVED this film, and the performances from everyone were absolutely wonderful
Amen! Did you realize the grave scene wasn’t in the movie. Totally improv by Barry! Fearless performance
This movie is wiiiiiild and definitely not afraid to go anywhere. Manipulative, elitist, shocking, gross at times... Even I was mesmerized by Felix and could see how Oliver would feel in some circumstances (he takes it to 11 though!). Jacob Elordi plays him like the nice guy who is obvious to the classism he lives in, but that feels like a rouse too. Barry Keoghan is phenomenal as always, I just hope he doesn't get typecast as the odd guy in every movie--although he nails it every time.
The reveal is that he hates him. You see throughout the movie all the incidents he hates how sociopathic and uncaring Felix is. Some people argue he is nice, but he only collects people to make himself seem more interesting to others. He also treats women like objects to have whenever he wants.
Barry is "Pure Electricity." Best description!❤
Went to see it at Regal yesterday and absolute 10/10. I was high and definitely kind of nauseous during 1-2 scenes (If you've seen it... lmfao you know) but I'm seeing it a few more times for sure. Chef's kiss.
the "vampire" scene 🤮
saw it the other day and was also high lmao... not the greatest choice but it added to the experience and i loved it
@@marshallholland2248That moment would made Nosferatu say you're the man
@@marshallholland2248 don’t yuck Barry’s yum
@@Brownsocksflirt 🤣🤣🤣☠
I’m so jealous of the movie saltburn bc it had the two of them in it
the girls that get it-
This was fantastic!! The whole thing was soo fun and interesting. The booth was especially greay
Thank you for asking questions that really got into the meat of the film rather than tabloid type stuff
Best movie of 2023. Cruel and beautiful at the same time. Amazing soundtrack and photography. And you won't see the twist coming.
I’m genuinely in love with Felix. I love everything about his character
Terrific interview as always!
Thanks, Perri! Thanks, Jacob! Thanks, Barry! ❤🔥 I'm so looking forward to SALTBURN (2023).
Nice touch with the antlers in the background 😄
Loved this interview. Very smart and up to all questions that I wanted to hear.
👍👍🍷🤩👧
The film is mesmerising, Oliver, Felix and Elspeth my three favourites
Barry was incredible in this film!!!!
Great questions and lovely interview!! Enjoyed watching
The movie was amazing.
The actors were amazing.
Did someone say, Oscar nominations, yes, Masterpiece.
It's like a mix of Talented Mr Ripley and Wild things together this generations version. Great movie great performances
these questions were excellent
what a fantastic interviewer
She asked what the fans wanna know… and this is great fodder for fan works if you know what I mean 😏
Honestly. I think this film was incredible. I went into it with no expectation, thinking it was a gay love story. You have no idea where it's going to end up.
Can’t get over this movie and how talented all of the actors are
Fantastic interview!!! I loved watching them together onscreen!
06:27 Oh god !! The level of sarcasm 😂😂
This movie is one of my favorites of the year. Emerald Fennell does an amazing job as director. Please do the direct more movie and the performance from barry keoghan and Jacob Elordi. It was amazing, and barry keoghan performance felt so different from his other performance that he had you guessing the entire movie and Jacob Elordi was a standout to me he played this boy who try to be better person wants people to see him not as felix as a human but my problem with the movie was the end was mixed to me overall 9 out of 10
Excellent interviewer here, the questions were great - not the usual “so what did you think of the script at first?” that we always hear. Well done
That would be an awesome Batman and Joker
Great questions, really like this interview!
Great interview questions!!
That LV jacket is outrageous! I want it!
Good interview!
great questions!
Yes!!! Part 2!!!
Amazing actors👏👏🇧🇻👋
I had a lot of issues with the last 20 minutes of the movie. Like, no one does an autopsy on Felix to find out how the hell he died? These people are super rich-the idea that they wouldn’t demand answers is absurd. And the idea that suspicion wouldn’t be cast on the interloper when all these bodies start dropping, etc etc. I can imagine better endings for the film, but I loved the first 90 minutes and both these actors are fantastic in it.
you are not lying they did nothing!
Can’t get enough of this mutual admiration society. I could watch them sit reading the newspaper. Ooftah! 👏✌️🙏
Best movie I have watched since Everything Everywhere All At Once.
Great interviewer
Saltburn é obra prima, as pessoas polemizou esse filme sem lógica alguma, óbvio que tem umas cenas chocantes, mas o filme precisava desde toque extremo da loucura.
Eu pelo menos esperava que o Oliver fosse surtar ainda mais, porém o plot twist me chocou real, traumatizante.
I love how Jacob says “frustrated as” (as in “as shit”) but Barry thought he didn’t finish his sentence haha
love themmmm
"We all dance around our house naked". Really? Why did I not know that? BTW loved this film. Found all the characters so relatable. But after the interview I'm wondering if I should be disturbed by that.
Omg his LV jacket! Love it❤
I can’t believe that dance was not choreographed!
Jacob Elordi either really likes his new watch, regrets he chose to wear it or he really had to go somewhere else in a hurry.
I got the feel that Barry unnerves him just the slightest bit
But he do be checking it a whole lot
@@wandorland how so
He for sure is like pure electricity
I'm all about body language and Jacob seems uncomfortable and closed off (crossed arms and legs), similar to me in anxious situations, but Barry is fully open body language like he's comfortable and relaxed
Theme of movie is so important: Don't trust gay men, especially YOUNG ones. What a great lesson to all of us.
I thought that the films interview scenes suggested that Jason pursued his suspicion and Oliver was arrested ?
He was talking to Elsbeth while she was in a coma.
brilliant movie!
Decent questions 👍🏼
Jacob is amazing!
I think in the end he can't possibly get away with it. I think the movie leaves offl at the height of Olivers master plan... It will come crashing down. It's a great film and a perfect ending
once we see barry as the joker in the next batman movie, he is setup. a new contender for best joker vs heath ledger?
definitely strange at times but i loved the movie it was unpredictable
thank you for all spoilers with no alerts :(
“Look at where we live”😬😅😗
Great movie
Risky Business: Joel dances in underwear through the house.
Can anyone tell me, and its a SPOILER, I didn't quite understand how Felix died. Can someone explain, was he poisoned and if so, how, were there details? Thanks in Advance. I thought the weirdest part was when Oliver fu$$ed Felix's grave. The naked dancing was fine.
Oliver spikes a bottle of alcohol with presumably a lethal amount of cocaine before he confronts Felix in the middle of the maze. He hands the bottle over to Felix before going to throw up next to him and then leaves Felix with the bottle after
@@alhaithamsfourthabmusclebefore leaving Felix he takes back the bottle so he can throw it into the pond
@@sfinn13 yes you're right! I forgot about that
Why does Barry K look 40 and 20 at the same time
what if i told you he was 30, the number between 20 and 40
@@drxculaz oh yeah that would make sense 😂
@@drxculazhahaha
It’s bc he’s a hobgoblin
Elordi is so handsome 😮
Jacob is so sown to earth. Also fashion wise. But if you look closely you see he's wearing real. Gems in Form of watches and jewelry.
Javob elordi sits like an anime romance character.
What happenned to his Aussie accent?
⚡️⚡️⚡️
Hard boiled??? Nooo soft boiled. But I love a poached egg. Or really runny scrambled eggs with cheese 🤷🏼♀️
their both so hot. (cept for his LV jacket, too trendy). gr8 film, fab ending.
Can you please tell me the ending? I don't wanna watch it
@@Vzla-bg6pdbarry dances around the mansion butt naked w his dong fully on view
🙌🙌🙆🤣🤣😎
I need them to kiss
The acting was very well done and the way the movie was shot was great but this was not my kind of movie it just to weird I guess
Saltbum
Jacobs Cartier watch tho pfffff
💃💃🏋️🏋️
Self-parody of the great psychological dramas of 1990-2000... Not expressed hackneyed plot and the same acting. There is also disappointment in the lack of deep meaning. Yes, today there is clearly a crisis in world cinema. And not only in cinema.
jacob hates being interviewed. catch him checking his watch
Such an amazing film. So different
Film was dreadful
Both are so under inspiring and dull. The Australian actor is boring. Barry Keoghan is just awful in the film and everything I've seen him in. Perhaps it is his looks and rough accent. The best thing about this film is Rosamund Pike
Too bad this movie is a waste of time
Would have been nice if one of them responded to the egg question: I don’t take eggs at all, I’m vegan. I had seen undercover footage from egg factories of male chicks shredded live right after hatching and sex identification, I had seen how hens are slaughtered the moment they stop being profitable. I was horrified by what I saw and realized that I could in no way contribute to participate in this horror, to create demand for this abuse of those who, unlike me, have zero voice.
So, it would have been nice if one of them said that.
Seek mental help
You seem fun
@@Tybolt1 hmm, mental help is more in order for people who learn that newborn animals are shredded alive in billions but their reaction is to insult the person who had simply shared that info. If you’re triggered by others standing up for the voiceless, time to do some soul searching ❤️🙏
I get it, but such a weird way to call attention to it on an interview thread about this movie. Lol. Like how are people supposed to take you seriously? Read the room. 😳
@@stephanydiaz4324 Well, the timing of it partly explains my reaction. I was just dealing with the situation of trying to find home for six newly hatched chicks rescued from an egg farm. Some of them might turn out to be males. And all male baby chicks are suffocated right after the farmer establishes their sex as they are not needed in egg production. And in big egg productions they are ground up alive in a special chick grinder seconds after hatching. And it’s exactly what it looks like - a worker crudely turning their inverted sex organ inside out (a very painful and possibly lethal act in itself) to see their sex, then throws males on conveyor belt that takes them - piled up on top of one another, alive, moving - straight into the grinder. We are talking billions of male chicks a year. And spent hens are sent to slaughter - no exceptions.
And as I was dealing with my search for home for the chicks, i found out the following fun bit of info from one of the farm animal sanctuaries: a postal worker had contacted them crying “please help, egg farmers mail chicks all the time across states in shipping boxes. And we get boxes that are smashed with chicks severely injured or suffocated to death dead. Can’t deal with it anymore. Please help!”
So, as a farm animal rescuer, you are constantly aware of this info, and then you see two grown men who must be aware of it in some way (Hollywood is the place where this information is around in one way or the other), who have the resources not to contribute to that but who sit around and talk about eggs in a disconnected context.
I get that it all seems “militant” and “self-righteous,” but we have to start sharing this info.
Imagine they talked about products of dog abuse - then all commenters would have the same reaction as mine. The animal might be different - the suffering is the same.
These crazy questions about fake movie characters. It's all too surreal. The movie is terrible, and only gets attention because a male actor playing a psycopathic homosexual dances naked. Give us a break.
