Mini Fall Film Fest: Triangle of Sadness

A comedy and drama directed by Ruben Östlund, made in Sweden,  France, the U.K.,  Germany, Turkey and Greece, 2022. Running time: 2 hrs. 30 min. Rated R. 

In a world where money and beauty are valued at the expense of all else, models Carl (Harris Dickinson) and Yaya (Charlbi Dean) have less of the former, but her celebrity secures them an invitation to an ill-fated luxury cruise with the insufferable rich—and a Marxist captain (Woody Harrelson).

A wickedly funny lampoon of modern elitism, the fashion industry, and the era of social media influencers, this film won director Ruben Östlund (Force Majeure, The Square) his second Palme d’Or at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
