One of the most talked-about movies of 2023 is Saltburn<\/em>, a black comedy about an Oxford University student named Oliver, played by BAFTA-winning actor Barry Keoghan<\/strong>,<\/a> who endears himself — and helps destroy — a classmate’s aristocratic family. Keoghan spoke with Variety<\/em><\/a> about his role in the film, particularly about how Keoghan portrayed the various facets of Oliver’s personality.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite Oliver’s shocking behavior over the course of the film, Keoghan says he didn’t outright judge the character’s action. He explains, “All the choices I made as Oliver, I didn\u2019t seem them as sociopathic or wrong.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The interviewer notes that Keoghan has said he played “five versions of Oliver” in the film. Describing that approach, Keoghan reveals, “I looked at good leading performances with a strong arc to prepare because this was my first leading part. […] I created Oliver 1 for the start, then Oliver 2 for the next part, on through Oliver 5 at the end. I wanted to hit each of them with a physicality, a tone of voice, a different motive, a different pace. You see the costume and the hair changes, but you also sense his mental change and track that journey.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He would keep track of which version of “Oliver” appeared in what scene, adding, “It helped with where I was in the story since it\u2019s not shot chronologically. I was shooting, say, Scene 54; I would go to my book and see that this is Oliver 4. Then I would look up what Oliver 4\u2019s traits are. What is his physicality? What is his demeanor? […] It really helped me. I\u2019ve not done that before. I like to say I\u2019m method, but I think method is your own thing \u2014 you do what works for you. You can take from other methods, you can watch others and observe \u2014 you do what gets you by. You\u2019re giving a lot. You can lose a little bit of yourself when you show raw emotion. You can take bits away from yourself that you haven\u2019t even discovered yet. I\u2019m not going to say it\u2019s a painful process, but it\u2019s a very exhausting process.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keoghan notes that some of the script’s most outrageous moments appealed to him as acting challenges. He says, “I looked at that and went, ‘I\u2019m going to show some maturity here and my commitment to my craft and challenge myself.’ I\u2019ll do anything once that moves the story forward and if there\u2019s a right reason for it creatively.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He notes that projects like Saltburn<\/em> allow him to grow creatively as an actor, which is something he attempts to do off-screen as well. He shares, “I also learn from others, both older and younger. I love watching what people bring to the table and why they make their choices and get into character. For me, I\u2019ll play around with plastic spoons in my mouth. I\u2019ll keep an accent. I\u2019ll listen to music. I\u2019ll stay in a dress code. That\u2019s all so I\u2019m mentally in it. I had no formal training and I don\u2019t think there is any right way to do what you do. To go back to the painting metaphor, there is no one correct way to paint \u2014 you just have to get it on the canvas.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
