Triangle of Sadness
Nov 19, 2022
Triangle of Sadness is a breathlessly entertaining comedy that follows a celebrity model couple exploring their relationship when their life is upended. In Director Ruben Östlund’s wickedly funny Palme d’Or winner, social hierarchy is turned upside down, revealing the tawdry relationship between power and beauty. Carl (Harris Dickinson) and Yaya (Charlbi Dean), are invited on a luxury cruise for the uber-rich, helmed by an unhinged boat captain (Woody Harrelson). What first appeared Instagram worthy ends catastrophically, leaving the survivors stranded on a desert island and fighting for survival.
