Ripley: LUCIO Show Only

April 9, 2024 7:38 PM - Season 1, Episode 5

Dickie has a visitor.

And we catch up with the cat from the first episode.
Oh, and ketchup is red, like the splash of color we see at the end.

That cat is majestic. I would like to know how much film it took to get all those gorgeous shots of the cat.

...Tom Ripley did some stuff too I guess. The show seems to be doing a good job with his point of view? He picks up one nice little thing for his apartment, and now it's tainted. And then he was kept up all night cleaning. Poor Tom.

Tom Ripley absolutely comes over as the sort of character that pets would react badly to. Part of the show’s appeal is that he maybe a little lazy, restless and ill-at-ease to succeed as a grifter. Everybody looks at him with distrust; not just the cat!

Same screenplay writer as Schindler’s List, in case that strategic flash of colour reminded you of anything.
