TORONTO — Boys behaving badly only begins to describe  a secret society of Oxford students in “The Riot Club,” a new drama directed by Lone Scherfig. The film is based on the play “Posh,” by Laura Wade, and follows the members of a dining club who have a dinner party that gets considerably out of hand. In this video, Ms. Scherfig discusses the film and how class conflicts and elitism give way to egregious acts.
