It's like someone crossed Brideshead Revisited with The Talented Mister Ripley, but with amazing cinematography and bad writing and acting that is okay at best. And then added a bunch of gratuitous gross sex stuff. It's kind of like, "Look how avant gard we are showing full frontal nudity!" But it is really just super tedious and boring and gross.

1. What happened to Farleigh?
2. Why was there zero Olly backstory - what inspired him to become a psychopath?
3. Why didn't Felix have an autopsy performed on him, thereby making it clear he was poisoned?
4. What was Olly doing for the decade-plus? Were we supposed to believe he lurked in that coffee shop every day, hoping for a glimpse of her ladyship?

It was well done and absolutely depicted the character of reality of a psycho.

An “observation” you stole from the Vulture review:
Saltburn can be shorthanded as Brideshead Revisited by way of The Talented Mr. Ripley, though it’s the former that’s the primary reference point.

Tsk, tsk. Be original.
