Barry Koeghan is incredibly creepy as a teen boy, Martin, whose father has recently died.
At first the family enjoys Martin, but he becomes obsessive and clingy.
At the same time, a mysterious illness paralyzes both of Stevens children.
Saltburn / Talented Mr. Ripley
Martin reveals the cause of the illness and offers Steven a gruesome deal in exchange for a cure.
This was the role that turned Drew Barrymore from a struggling child actor into an in-demand adult actor.
Matt Damon, Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow all star inThe Talented Mr. Ripley.
Scream queen Naomi Watts was cast by David Lynch even though he had never seen any of her previous films, which is pretty shocking. Who hasn’t seenChildren of the Corn IV: The Gathering(1996)??
This film would not be considered similar toSaltburnif it didn’t star Koeghan as a creepy, intelligent, scheming young man.
