Östlund's biting attack on the 1%, starring Harris Dickinson, Charlbi Dean, and Woody Harrelson, won the Palme d'Or for best film at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival.
ahead of Cannes about “the currency of beauty,” the real-life inspiration behind all his movies, and why his last three films form a “trilogy of male absurdity.”. Why did it take so long to make it?
I got specifically interested when Susan told me about the male models. For example, that male models earn a third or a quarter of what female models earn. And they have to maneuver amongst the powerful homosexual men in the industry who wants to sleep with them. And sleeping with them can be a door opener also for a career. This idea of sexuality and beauty as a currency for men I found interesting, in this world where we mostly see women dealing with these kinds of situations.
You mentioned Instagram, which is the digital marketplace for this beauty currency you’re talking about. Did you research that world and what did you find out? That’s something I feel a lot, where there’s a clash between who I want to be as a man and the situation I find myself dealing with. A lot of the scenes in these three films are based on situations I have experienced myself.Quite often I feel trapped in the culture that I live in. I want to be somewhere else but cultural expectations are forcing me into a corner. There’s the dilemma between what I want to do and what I feel that I have to do.
I did a lot of casting: in Berlin, Paris, London, New York, L.A., Stockholm, Copenhagen, in Manila in the Philippines. What I often do is sit with different actors and I play one of the parts. So in the bill scene, sometimes I’d play the woman, sometimes I’d play the man. I try it out and look for when I really feel there’s a dilemma there for the actor, where you can see that they are struggling with their morals, ethics and expectations, expressing that in a believable and strong way.
