Questions About This Episode

What is S5 Ep46: Ruben Östlund, filmmaker about?

Hallå! My guest this week is Swedish screenwriter and director Ruben Östlund, who I met in London in December. Ruben's feature films include 2014's Force Majeure , 2017's The Square , and 2022's Triangle of Sadness , which is nominated for three Oscars including Best Original Screenplay. He has a unique way of writing, doing a lot of talking before he even gets close to typing out the script; he tells me about that, plus how making ski movies influenced his sense of dramatic excitement, and why it's a good thing that filmmaking never gets easier. He makes reference to Stanley Milgram's famous electric shock experiment, which you can read about here: Watch the trailer for Triangle of Sadness here: Sign up for the In Writing newsletter and join my writers' community on Substack: This season of In Writing is sponsored by Curtis Brown Creative ( ).
