Triangle of Sadness [DVD]

Product Information

That segment of the story specifically highlights the place of “OFWs,” or Overseas Filipino Workers, a well-established category of migrant workers living and working outside their home country, and often taking menial working-class jobs regardless of their education or past work experience. De Leon says OFWs were a particular focus for Östlund in conceiving the film.

On VOD, it ranked number 2 on iTunes Movies following the Oscar nomination announcements on January 24, 2023. [22] By March 9, 2023, according to Samba TV, it had been streamed on Hulu in 250,000 households in the United States since the announcements, with JustWatch also reporting it to be, by February 21, the second most-streamed Best Picture nominee in Canada, behind The Fabelmans. [23] [24] Alas, the cast doesn’t come up anywhere else, either. There are two production featurettes, Erik, the Extra, and a visual effects demonstration. Erik focuses on producer Erik Hemmendorff and his work as an extra on the film. Hemmendorff plays the poor soul who gets blasted in the yacht stairwell by a river of waste, and this 15-minute piece provides a look at the rehearsals leading up to the final shot. Amusingly, during rehearsals, Hemmendorff keeps faking his reaction to being hit by the waste, which Östlund repeatedly insists he not do. When the final scene is shot, it becomes obvious why the filmmaker was adamant about him (literally) going with the flow. Keslassy, Elsa (9 June 2017).

All of which is to say that Triangle of Sadness appeals to precisely the same people it professes to deride. Episodic, fabulistic, and self-consciously outrageous, the film introduces us to one comically despicable capitalist after another—including oblivious aristocrats, insipid social media influencers, and self-justifying weapons manufacturers—before subjecting them to humiliation, mostly at the hands of the nonwhite proletariat they barely even deign to notice. There’s something satisfying in this structure, which has the moralistic logic of a slasher film, but it’s ultimately self-negating, confusing scabrous cynicism for trenchant insight. a b Goodfellow, Melanie (8 November 2022).

Retrieved 12 December 2022.Richard Brody, in a critical review for The New Yorker, described Triangle of Sadness as "a movie of targeted demagogy that pitches its facile political stances to the preconceptions of the art-house audience; far from deepening those ideas or challenging those assumptions, it flatters the like-minded viewership while swaggering with the filmmaker’s presumption of freethinking, subversive audacity." Brody described Östlund's direction as "precise but stiff" and criticised the film's emphasis on social commentary: "[Östlund's] keen observations are submerged in his efforts at social criticism and political philosophy." However, Brody commended the cast performances—particularly Dean's, of which he wrote: "If nothing else, the movie would have assured her stardom; there’s no telling how many characters and films her death foreclosed before their conception."
