If you have the misfortune to visit Instagram frequently, you may have been bombarded with ads for one of the biggest hits of 2023 last fall, “Saltburn.” I always take notice of new releases, because I’m constantly on the lookout for potential topics for “Latest vs. the Greatest” articles. This film caught my attention because I hadn’t heard of it before but recognized a few of the actors in the cast.
