Triangle of Sadness
Triangle of Sadness
A celebrity model couple are invited on a luxury cruise for the uber-rich, helmed by an unhinged, alcoholic captain. What first appears Instagrammable ends catastrophically, leaving the survivors stranded on a desert island in a struggle of hierarchy.

Filipina ate.
Triangle of Sadness wasn’t really clicking with me for the first couple acts. Harsh criticisms of the super rich and powerful are always welcome, but literally shitting on them for 20 minutes straight felt rather puerile and a bit on the nose. But enter Dolly de Leon’s Abigail and I was immediately transfixed by my filipino bias. “What yacht? Where’s the yacht? In the yacht, toilet manager; here, captain. Who am I?” She absolutely owned this movie from that point forward and I couldn’t have been more proud. (I actually may erase Easter Sunday from my memory now.) Loved the final act and actually highly recommend this film.
