Vi har alle møtt dem: Mennesker som virkelig har vært gjennom noe vondt; ekte ofre som bærer på tap, svik eller overgrep. Deres smerte fortjener respekt. Men hva med de som aldri blir ferdige med å være et offer, uansett hva som skjer?Hva med dem som bruker offerrollen som et skjult våpen — for å kontrollere, unngå ansvar, eller styre andre gjennom skyld og dårlig samvittighet? I dag skal vi se på forskjellen mellom det ekte offeret, det kroniske offeret – og det manipulerende offeret." HVA ER ET OFFER? En person som identifiserer seg som konstant utsatt, hjelpeløs eller urettferdig behandlet – selv når det ikke (lenger) er tilfelle. Og det er tre hovedtyper: Noen som virkelig har vært utsatt for alvorlig overgrep, tap, vold eller svikDe kan være preget av traumer, men ofte søker de hjelp, ønsker å komme videreTar etter hvert eierskap til egen heling når de får sjansenFilmkarakter: Beth i Good Will Hunting (Skyldfølelse og traumer, men også en indre styrke)De som har en vane for å tolke mange små eller store hendelser som overgrep mot demDe kan ha opplevd ekte smerte tidligere, men har fastlåst en identitet som "offer"Lever ut offerrollen i nye situasjonerFilmkarakter: George Costanza i Seinfeld — en humoristisk versjon: han føler seg ofte urettferdig behandletHer brukes offerrollen som en måte å få kontroll, unngå ansvar eller manipulere andres følelserDet kan være ubevisst ("jeg vet ikke at jeg manipulerer, jeg bare vil ha sympati") eller mer bevisstFilmkarakterer: Mother Gothel i Tangled, Gollum i Ringenes Herre, Tom Ripley i The Talented Mr. Ripley Folk vegrer seg for å gi tilbakemelding eller sette grenserMangel på krav og forventninger fra omgivelseneKan "bestemme" stemningen i et rom – andre må trå varsomtSubtil emosjonell utpressing – "Hvis du virkelig bryr deg, vil du ikke..."Uuttalte trusler om skyldfølelse eller drama hvis man utfordrer demJa – det å innta en offerrolle kan faktisk fungere som en form for manipulativ kontroll over omgivelsene, ofte uten at personen selv er helt klar over det. Dette kan være en ubevisst strategi for å unngå ansvar, samtidig som man oppnår makt – en slags psykologisk hersketeknikk kamuflert som sårbarhet.Tidlige erfaringer med å bli møtt med empati og belønning når de viser sårbarhetFrykt for konflikt, ansvar, avvisning eller endringEn måte å unngå skyld og ansvar: "Det er ikke min feil"Manglende rollemodeller for grensesetting og personlig styrkeBelønningen i form av oppmerksomhet, unntak, forståelse, og makt Mangel på utvikling og vekstRelasjonelle utfordringer – manipulasjon eller tilbaketrekningEnsomhet og bitterhet: "Ingen ser meg", "Ingen hjelper meg"Ofte sur eller skuffet, men klarer ikke kommunisere behov Still deg selv disse spørsmålene for å se om du er utsatt for en manipulativ offer-atferd:Er personen interessert i løsninger, eller bare i å få bekreftet hvor ille alt er?Når du tilbyr konkret hjelp, blir det tatt imot eller avvist med 'det hjelper jo ikke uansett'?Føler du deg energisk eller utmattet etter å ha vært sammen med personen?Er det rom for dine følelser og behov i samtalen?" Og tenk litt videre på dettte: "Hvilke relasjoner i ditt liv tapper deg for energi på denne måten?""På hvilke områder av livet ditt kan du med fordel ta tilbake ansvaret for din egen lykke?""Hvor kan du begynne å sette én enkel, vennlig grense denne uken?"1. Det ekte offeret:2. Det kroniske offeret:3. Det manipulerende offeret (hovedfokus i denne episoden):3. Hvordan offerrollen kan gi makt Hvorfor blir noen værende i offerrollen?Konsekvensene av å leve i offerrollen

Fascinada por el mal, Patricia Highsmith (1921-1995) revela la fragilidad de nuestra moralidad en ese maestro del escapismo que es Tom Ripley. Su ciclo de cinco libros ha inspirado películas en que aparece encarnado por actores como Alain Delon, Dennis Hopper, Matt Damon o John Malkovich. Este asesino y falsificador, representa el prototipo de antihéroe. Y como todo antihéroe, tiene más discernimiento que principios. Aunque a menudo es descrito como un psicópata, para Highsmith, podría ser cualquiera de nosotros. La novela de Highsmith, "El talento de Mr. Ripley" (1955) fue llevada al cine por René Clément en "A pleno sol" (1960), primero en Francia, donde residió la escritora mucho tiempo. Para muchos, la robusta figura de Matt Damon en la adaptación del británico Anthony Minghella en 1999, no resiste la comparación con la hermosura de Alain Delon, ¡no digamos John Malkovich! La cuestión es que la bonhomía de Damon muestra la ambigüedad de Ripley y lo turbio de Malkovich en la versión de Liliana Cavani en 2002, su astucia, mientras Delon representa su encanto y seducción. Son todos aspectos del mismo personaje. En sus primeras notas lo describe en 1954 como "un joven estadounidense, medio homosexual, un pintor mediocre de aspecto inofensivo, atractivo para algunos y repelente para otros". En este programa de radio Al Trasluz, escuchamos algunos fragmentos de "El talento de Mr. Ripley", leído por Luis Posada y escenas de la película que hizo sobre el libro, Minghella en 1999, así como el tráiler de la serie "Ripley", que ha hecho Steven Zaillian para Netflix en 2024. La canción de Gloria Christian con la orquesta de Gino Conte (Na sera pè fatalità) es de la serie de Zaillian y "My Funny Valentine" es cantada por el actor Matt Damon en la película de Minghella con el cuarteto de Guy Barker. El texto y la narración de José de Segovia tiene el fondo instrumental de la banda sonora original de Gabriel Yared para la película de Minghella y Jeff Russo para la serie de Zaillian, que incluyen composiciones de jazz como "You Are Not There" de Don Rendell. El diseño sonoro y la realización técnica es de Daniel Panduro.
The Falling Arc isn't about a villain—it's about a character who could have chosen differently but instead becomes consumed by their worst impulses. Their story isn't just dark—it's unsettling, raw, and real. This character starts with potential, but instead of rising to the occasion, they spiral downward—deeper into moral corruption, delusion, or even self-destruction.The Falling Arc is one of the most devastating negative character arcs (overview of negative arcs in episode 46,) and today, we're breaking down exactly how to write one.Using Tom Ripley from The Talented Mr. Ripley as a prime example, this episode explores:

En este episodio de "Grandes Maricas de la Historia", nos sumergimos en la enigmática vida de Patricia Highsmith, una de las autoras más influyentes del suspense psicológico del siglo XX. Conocida por sus obras maestras como Strangers on a Train y la icónica serie de Tom Ripley, Highsmith no solo dejó una marca indeleble en la literatura, sino que también vivió una vida personal llena de complejidades y desafíos. Repasamos su difícil relación con su madre y el ambiente conservador de su infancia moldearon su visión del amor y las relaciones humanas, su mudanza a Nueva York, donde Patricia descubrió su verdadera identidad sexual en una sociedad profundamente homofóbica y este conflicto interno y la necesidad de ocultar su orientación influenciaron profundamente su escritura, dando vida a personajes moralmente ambiguos y tramas llenas de suspense y dilemas éticos.

On the twenty- ninth episode of ATFT, one of my good friends, lover of movies Taylor Donaldson joins me in discussing 1999 in film! This episode is explicit and contains spoilers for a few 1999 films. 1999 is often regarded as one of the greatest years in cinema. There's even a book written by Brian Raftery titled: Best. Movie. Year. Ever: How 1999 Blew Up the Big Screen. NPR's Scott Detrow describes 1999 to Raftery in a short conversation, as a year in which "old masters like Martin Scorsese and Stanley Kubrick were still putting out provocative work, while new masters like David Fincher and Paul Thomas Anderson were pushing the boundaries of narrative and cinematic form." As Taylor describes in the beginning of the episode, it was a very "eclectic" year for cinema. Keanu Reeves took the red pill and learned "there is no spoon", John Cusack along with several others entered the mind of John Malkovich, Angelina Jolie screamed "Where's Jamie?", Brad Pitt and Edward Norton welcomed us to their fight club and Heath Ledger stole all of our hearts. 1999 was certainly an innovative, stand- alone, eclectic year in cinema. This is Taylor's fourth time on ATFT but first appearance on the wide release! Taylor has been one of my closest friends for four years now and quickly became my favorite person to talk film with. Since this is a special episode, I knew I had to bring on a very special guest and Taylor instantly came to mind. This episode was recorded on September 5, 2024. In this episode, Taylor and I discuss the films of 1999 with a little help from each and every past wide release guest on ATFT. Since this was, again, a special episode, I wanted to include all the past guests so I asked each of them their favorite film from 1999. After Taylor share our top five favorite films of the year, we go through the list of films chosen by the ATFT guest community. Taylor also shares some hot takes, the most significant probably being The Virgin Suicides is the best film by a Coppola, why she is rooting for Matt Damon's Tom Ripley in The Talented Mr. Ripley, and the hits and many misses of the 2000 Academy Awards. All this and more on the latest episode of All the Film Things! Background music created and used with permission by the Copyright Free Music - Background Music for Videos channel on YouTube.
How to avoid some social media problems? The introduction this week of Taking It Down makes its case (0:01). Blaine begins with a thanks to many listeners and friends which leads to thoughts on evolution (1:11). Blaine gets Donovan into the show by talking general TV, including 'Bad Monkey,' 'Ripley,' and those two shows' relationships to what happened on TV this weekend with college football (2:19). Donovan offers up his recommendation without spoilers on the Netflix series 'Ripley' (9:48). From there, the hosts then dig deeply into back half of 'Ripley' and its themes of identity, ambition, and class (10:43). They explore the character of Tom Ripley and his complex relationships with other characters, as well as the use of art and symbolism throughout the show, including interpretations on those aspects and more. Expect spoilers in the back half after that ten minute mark. To end, it's a tease of what to come next week and why Donovan reads the newsletter (41:01).
La nostalgie des hebdos s'incarne, à travers une gueule, un regard, et aussi un ego immortalisé par les Guignols de l'Info :Ces louanges qu'Alain Delon n'aura pas lues, elles tapissent les Unes et les pages intérieures des principaux hebdos - nos confrères de l'Obs, du Point, du Figaro Magazine, de L'Express, de La Croix Hebdo retracent quasiment tous la carrière et la vie privée de l'interprète du Samouraï enterré le 24 août... de ses relations compliquées avec les femmes et ses enfants, parfois son amitié trouble avec l'homme politique d'extrême droite Jean-Marie Le Pen.Des dossiers spéciaux qui sont surtout l'occasion de ressortir une icône du passé : Alain Delon torse nu, trempé de sueur et d'eau salée, les muscles bandés à la barre du voilier où se jouera le drame de Plein Soleil. L'acteur prête son charme et son regard ténébreux à Tom Ripley, l'antihéros du film de René Clément tourné en Italie il y a 65 ans déjà.L'Humanité Magazine revient de son côté trois décennies en arrièreAvec l'interview d'un rappeur devenu rare.MC Solaar fera son énième retour à la fête de l'Humanité, 32 ans après sa dernière apparition au festival... Et dans cet entretien, le rappeur nostalgique aux accents bucoliques déplore la montée de l'extrême droite en France : « Plus les régimes sont autoritaires, moins la culture a le droit de parler », dit-il... MC Solaar qui veut laisser de la place aux « questions écologiques » dans ses textes. Il sera sur scène dans trois semaines au festival du journal de gauche.La gauche française fascinée par les dictateurs selon L'ExpressL'hebdo libéral affiche à sa Une Staline, Mao, Fidel Castro, Pol Pot... « les anticapitalistes s'entichent de régimes socialistes souvent sanguinaires »... l'occasion pour L'Express d'étriller « le socialisme du XXIe siècle promu par Hugo Chavez au Venezuela, [qui] s'est achevé comme les expériences du XXe siècle : en dictature ».Et le magazine de tirer le « bilan désastreux » de Fidel Castro, Nicolas Maduro, et Evo Morales accusés d'avoir « provoqué misère et chaos » en Amérique Latine... L'Express s'inquiète d'une potentielle arrivée de « Jean-Luc Mélenchon et de sa clique » au pouvoir, en tirant un trait d'union entre les dirigeants socialistes latino-américains et les Insoumis qualifiés de « danger pour [la France] ».Il faudrait d'ailleurs « tourner la page Macron et Mélenchon, délaisser Jupiter et Robespierre » : les propos sont de Raphaël Glucksmann dans une interview au Point. L'eurodéputé, qualifié de « nouveau chantre de la social-démocratie », « somme la gauche de rompre enfin avec La France Insoumise » selon l'hebdo conservateur. Raphaël Glucksmann qui voit le Nouveau Front Populaire comme une « unité d'action électorale contre l'extrême droite ».Dans la foulée de cet entretien avec Raphaël Glucksmann, autre interview, autres tacles dans Le Point, ceux de Sophia Aram. L'humoriste dénigre la « secte mélenchonniste » et « la soumission des sociaux-démocrates ». Sophia Aram qui conspue « une extrême gauche totalitaire et stupide » qui s'autorise « les mêmes violences que l'extrême droite », selon elle.Lucie Castets tente d'exister pour MatignonLong format dans L'Obs et dans L'Express sur la haute fonctionnaire de 37 ans, propulsée candidate du Nouveau Front Populaire au poste de Premier ministre. La défenseure des services publics qui débat avec les partis du NFP et se débat face à leurs divisions. L'Obs révèle que Lucie Castets « travaille d'arrache-pied » : « groupes de travail » qui « planchent sur des plans d'actions en matière de Pouvoir d'achat, éducation, santé, transition écologique ». L'économiste Lucas Chancel fait partie de « cette équipe Castets » qui a pour objectif d'aboutir « à des mesures concrètes pouvant être mises sur la table dès la nomination de Lucie » dit-il. Un autre des proches de Lucie Castets confie : « nous préparons un scénario où elle serait appelée dans quelques mois, après la chute d'un gouvernement de droite ».La nomination du nouveau Premier Ministre qui pourrait arriver après les Jeux Paralympiques...La trêve sportive qui pourrait se prolonger... dans un beau reportage photo de Louis Canadas, M, le magazine du Monde, retrace les images des Jeux Olympiques, « un moment suspendu » qui a « transfiguré la capitale en cité idéale ». Le photoreporter a sillonné Paris pendant toute la quinzaine et capturé la ferveur et la fête populaire des JO, comme lors de la course cycliste suivie par des milliers de spectateurs qui ont transformé la Butte Montmartre en Alpe-d'Huez le temps d'une journée.Pas de nostalgie en revanche dans L'Equipe Mag. Le supplément du journal des sports est déjà en mode Paralympique. Portraits du triathlète malvoyant Thibaut Rigaudeau et de son guide Cyril Viennot... leurs épreuves : 750 mètres de natation dans la Seine attachés par un élastique, 20 kilomètres de vélo tandem, et 5 kilomètres de course à pied attaché par la taille. Top départ le 2 septembre du pont Alexandre-III. Pour gagner il faut donc beaucoup de complicité comme le confirment les Français Thibaut Rigaudeau et Cyril Viennot. Parfois même un peu trop : sur Instagram, Cyril Viennot ancien champion du monde chez les valides en rigole : « quand on est guide d'un athlète malvoyant il faut aimer transmettre. J'ai brillamment réussi [en refilant] ma gastro à Thibaut la semaine dernière ».La Croix L'Hebdo se met aussi « dans les roues de nos champions » à l'occasion d'un reportage en immersion avec L'équipe de France de tennis-fauteuil. Trois mois de préparation avec le capitaine Yannick Noah et ces joueurs qui veulent être de la sélection paralympique. Parmi eux, Stéphane Houdet, 53 ans, triple champion paralympique du double. Le vétéran ne veut pas passer le relais à la jeune génération, dans un monde où le sport et la performance prennent le pas sur le handicap.Mais ce sont parfois les infrastructures qui mettent au pas les personnes handicapées : L'Express revient sur ces transports parisiens toujours inaccessibles aux personnes dites à mobilité réduite, des hommes et des femmes en fauteuil roulant ou à moitié paralysée qui se confrontent au métro, aux centaines de marches d'escaliers, aux escalators en panne et à l'absence d'ascenseurs... 22 millions d'euros ont été investis pour adapter près de 1800 arrêts de bus. Une déception pour ces usagers alors que seules 29 stations de métro sur les 320 que comptent le réseau francilien sont entièrement accessibles. L'association APF France Handicap s'énerve : « Pourquoi la France n'en est pas capable ? » en comparant Paris à Londres, qui a réussi à rendre son métro accessible à hauteur de 18% (pour 272 stations), malgré un réseau plus ancien et enfoui plus profondément que celui de Paris.Dans Le Guépard, Alain Delon sous les traits de Tancrède disait : « il faut que tout change pour que rien ne change ».En matière de transports et d'accessibilité à Paris, on peut le dire : rien ne change pour que rien ne change.
This week- a pair of films starring the late French icon Alain Delon. Tom Ripley has been sent to Italy to retrieve Phillippe Greenleaf, son of a wealth San Francisco family. Phillippe has no intention of returning home, especially if it means leaving behind his fiancée, Marge. He soon grows cruel and abusive to the always fawning Tom. But Tom Ripley has ideas and plans of his own. The first film adaption of the original book Patricia Highsmith's classic novel series, Purple Noon (original title: Plein soleil). A Gentile art dealer in Vichy France is mistaken from a Jewish man with the same name. Robert Klein's wealthy and secure life is thrown into a paranoid mystery as he tries desperately to both satisfy the authorities on his identity and find who put him in this position to begin with. A Kafkaesque film about obsession and identity, Monsieur Klein. All that and Kevin is summoned with digital necromancy, Dave sees the bright lights big city, and Tyler sharpens his tongue for next week. Join us, won't you? Episode 375- Ice-Cold Angel
"His stories were good because he imagined them intensely, so intensely that he came to believe them." So wrote Patricia Highsmith in her seminal literary thriller The Talented Mr. Ripley in 1955. You might also characterise the work of our guest today, the talented Mr. Steven Zaillian, this way. The worlds and characters of his films and TV shows are imagined in such rich detail and complexity that you can absolutely imagine him believing them to be real as he crafts them on the page. In fact, that level of detail and depth has been his calling card for over thirty decades in Hollywood now. From 1990's Awakenings and 1993's Schindler's List, which won Steven an Oscar, all the way to films like Gangs of New York, American Gangster, Moneyball, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and The Irishman, there's a thrillingly convincing quality about whatever story he's telling – oftentimes, his characters are people you can imagine pulling up a barstool next to you and telling you a tale you'll never forget.This month, he's up for an Emmy for his work with Ripley – a Netflix adaptation of Highsmith's novel, that Steven acted as showrunner for, writing and directing every episode. The series is a hypnotising ten hours in the company of a conman, Tom Ripley, who's hired by a wealthy businessman to convince his son to return home from a life of leisure abroad on the Italian coast. But the more Tom – played here by Andrew Scott – ensconces himself in the lives of Dickie Greenleaf, played by Johnny Flynn, and Dakota Fanning as his partner, Marge Sherwood, the more his lies and his lust for what Dickie has mutates into something murderous. In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Steven tells us about the relevance of fraudster stories in a time of Trump and other public deceivers. We get into the writing tricks and tips that make you root for the morally thorny characters he often writes. And the rationale behind every change from both the novel and the Matt Damon-starring 1999 adaptation of Ripley is uncovered too, as we delve into the slightly different ending to this version of the tale and the meaning of Italian artist Caravaggio's presence throughout this story.

In her 1955 novel, “The Talented Mr. Ripley,” Patricia Highsmith introduced readers to the figure of Tom Ripley, an antihero who covets the good life, and achieves it—by stealing it from someone else. On this episode of Critics at Large, the staff writers Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss the long tail of Highsmith's work, which has been revived in adaptations like René Clément's 1960 classic, “Purple Noon”; the definitive 1999 film starring Matt Damon and Jude Law; and this year's Netflix series, “Ripley,” which casts its protagonist as a lonely middle-aged con man. In all three versions, Dickie Greenleaf, a wealthy acquaintance of Ripley's, becomes his obsession and eventually his victim. The story resonates today in part because we're all in the habit of observing—and coveting—the life styles of the rich and famous. Social media gives users endless opportunities to study how others live, such as the places they go, the meals they consume, and the objects they possess. “One of the reasons that the character of Ripley is forever sympathetic is the yearning and striving to be something other than himself, following an example that's set out to him,” Fry says. “For him, it's someone like Dickie. For us, it might be someone online.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“The Talented Mr. Ripley,” by Patricia Highsmith“The Talented Mr. Ripley” (1999)“Purple Noon” (1960)“Ripley” (2024)“Saltburn” (2023)“The White Lotus” (2021—)This episode originally aired on April 4, 2024.

Patricia Highsmith's 1955 thriller “The Talented Mr. Ripley” follows a young, down-on-his-luck scammer, Tom Ripley, who is looking to reverse his fortunes. When he receives a job offer to go to Italy and retrieve Dickie Greenleaf, a rich socialite on an endless holiday, Tom finds the perfect opportunity to work his way into the upper crust. But as he becomes more and more obsessed with Dickie and Dickie's life, the breezy getaway turns into something much more sinister, sending them down a dangerous path.In this week's episode, the Book Review's MJ Franklin discusses the book with his colleagues Tina Jordan, Sadie Stein and Sarah Lyall, our thrillers columnist. Caution: Spoilers abound.

Hey there! We're back with another exciting episode this week, where Wickham and Colleen are delving into the enigmatic world of the fictional character Tom Ripley, primarily focusing on the recent Netflix series "Ripley" (2024), "The Talented Mr. Ripley" (1999, dir. Anthony Minghella), and "Ripley's Game" (2002, dir. Liliana Cavani).
On our latest weekly roundup, Catherine reported on her son living it up in NYC, seeing lots and lots of theater. Mentioned: A past episode in which we discussed a BroadwayHD presentation of She Loves Me.What we're watching: We finished up season 3 of Bridgerton with episode 7, "Joining of Hands," and episode 8, "Into the Light." Yay for Penelope and Colin, but there were too many Bridgertons and altogether too much going on in this season. We wanted more Polin, less everything else (but still had fun with it).Catherine's library find this week is a trio of children's books that will strike fear in the heart of our former podcasting pal Nicole Eredics: Frankie D, Vegan Vampire by Sally and Brian Dutra, illustrated by Tiffani Brown; Harold the Iceberg Is Not a Super Food by Lisa Wyzlic, illustrated by Rebecca Syracuse; and 1 Big Salad: A Delicious Counting Book by Juana Medina.In the archives, we revisit episodes in which we discussed mandatory attendance at family events (June 29, 2023), occasions worthy of photo shoots (June 27, 2022), and movies that made us cry (June 26, 2015).Next week, we'll return to the story of Tom Ripley with the 1999 movie The Talented Mr. Ripley. Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
A few months ago, Krista sat down separately with Andrew Scott and Dakota Fanning to talk about their roles as Tom Ripley and Marge Sherwood in Steven Zaillian's Ripley. Based on Patricia Highsmith's bestselling “Tom Ripley” novels, the limited series follows Tom – a grifter scraping by in early 1960s New York – who is hired by a wealthy man to travel to Italy in order to convince his vagabond son to return home. His acceptance of the job is the first step into a complex life of deceit, fraud and murder. Pulled from a recent panel, this episode dives deeper into the series by exploring the experiences of Scott, Fanning, and Johnny Flynn (who plays Dickie Greenleaf).

Welcome To The Party Pal: The Mind-Bending Film & Television Podcast You Didn't Know You Needed!
This episode of Welcome To The Party Pal journeys to Italy to celebrate Netflix's Ripley, the neo-noir psychological thriller television series created, written, and directed by Steven Zaillian, based on Patricia Highsmith's 1955 crime novel The Talented Mr. Ripley. Starring Andrew Scott as Tom Ripley, with Dakota Fanning as Marge Sherwood and Johnny Flynn as Dickie Greenleaf, the eight-episode limited series is the first adaptation of Highsmith's novel to a series. Join in as hosts Michael Shields and Ryan O'Connell tip their hat to Robert Elswit's stunning cinematography, the showrunners decision to shoot entirely in black & white, and Andrew Scott's gripping performance, all while attempting to answer the question: Is Tom Ripley a good hang? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Talented Mr. Ripley is a 1999 American psychological thriller film written and directed by Anthony Minghella, based on Patricia Highsmith's 1955 novel of the same name. Set in the 1950s, it stars Matt Damon as Tom Ripley, a young man and aspiring con-artist who is sent from New York City to Italy to convince Dickie Greenleaf, a rich and spoiled playboy, to return home – however, after getting to know Dickie and his Italian lifestyle, Ripley takes increasingly extreme measures to adopt that lifestyle too. Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett, and Philip Seymour Hoffman also appear in supporting roles. The music for the film was composed by Gabriel Yared.

In this episode, we take a jaunt to New York to find out about the talented and difficult Patricia Highsmith. You might know one of her most notorious characters, Tom Ripley, from your Netflix queue (the new series Ripley) or via one of the many films based on what might be Highsmith's best-known novel, The Talented Mr. Ripley. Highsmith wrote several books that redefined the concept of the thriller, as well as one of the few stories to give a lesbian couple a happy ending. That novel, The Price of Salt, was adapted into the 2015 film Carol, starring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara. It was inspired by one of Highsmith's many obsessive relationships (or in this case, just an obsession) with women. Long a closeted lesbian, Highsmith was engaged to a man (as required by 1950s societal mores) yet aggressively seduced lady after lady. She also wrote obsessively, was highly ambitious, and kept thousands of pages of diaries written in various languages to avoid spilling her secrets (they have been translated since her death in 1995). She was misanthropic and bigoted, and even her friends considered her unpleasant to be around, but her psychological thrillers have remained classics, partly for how they provide insight into the mind of the criminal. The talk by writer and educator Hannah Meyer comes courtesy of our friends at Dead Ladies NYC. DLS co-founder Florian Duijsens was there for the event in NYC, and he joins producer/host Susan Stone to help introduce the episode.

PopaHALLics #123 "Pop Tarts & Pop Sweets"What can we say about Jerry Seinfeld's new movie about Pop Tarts? How about: You'd be better off taking a bite of the Spanish Inquisition ("The Familiar"), teenage murder ("Under the Bridge"), a murderous con man ("Ripley"), the Ku Klux Klan ("A Fever in the Heartland"), even an apocalyptic wasteland ("Fallout").Streaming:"Unfrosted," Netflix. Seinfeld's directorial debut is a relentlessly silly film about the creation of Pop Tarts. Seinfeld, Melissa McCarthy, Jim Gaffigan, Amy Schumer, and many other comedians star in this tale of the early '60s race between the Kellogg's and Post companies to create a square gooey-filled pastry."Fallout," Amazon Prime. Most of this drama based on the popular video game franchise takes place hundreds of years after a nuclear war. A perky vault dweller goes to the desolate surface in search of her abducted father; a squire becomes a "knight" in a motorized suit of armor; and a sentinent zombie who dresses and acts like a Clint Eastwood spaghetti Western creates havoc wherever he goes. Imaginative and violent, with an odd, goofy sense of humor."Ripley," Netflix. In this limited series, Andrew Scott (the hot priest in "Fleabag," Moriarty in "Sherlock") plays the latest incarnation of Tom Ripley, Patricia Highsmith's scheming con man. Dakota Fanning and Johnny Flynn also star in this neo-noir psychological thriller."Under the Bridge," Hulu. Eight teenagers are accused of murdering a 14-year-old girl in this "American true-crime" miniseries. Oscar nominee Lily Gladstone plays an investigator while Riley Keough plays Rebecca Godfrey, who wrote the book that inspired the miniseries."Byzantium," for rental or various channels with ads. Gemma Atherton and Saiorse Ronan ("Brooklyn") play two nomadic female vampires surviving on their wiles in this visually stunning, atmospheric 2013 film. Director Neil Jordan ("The Crying Game") reinvigorated vampire movies with his version of Anne Rice's "Interview with a Vampire."Books:"A Fever in the Heartland: The Ku Klux Klan's Plot to Take Over America, and the Woman Who Stopped Them," by Timothy Egan. This true story explores the second coming of the Klan in the 1920s and their leader, a grifter named D.C. Stephenson, who had so much power in Indiana at one time that he said "I am the law." He was undone by a trial that featured the dying testimony of a young woman he had abducted, raped and tortured."The Familiar," by Leigh Bardugo. When a disgraced secretary tries to regain the favor of Spain's king, a scullion with a gift for "little miracles" becomes involved in an effort to defeat the hated English. Unfortunately, the Spanish Inquisition does not look kindly on her use of magic.
This episode we look at one of the most famous and unsettling characters of 20th century literature, Tom Ripley, in the novel The Talented Mr. Ripley, written by Patricia Highsmith with the film adaptation directed by Anthony Minghella. This is a story of obsession, murder and identity, but also terrible plans, blunt objects, speedos and a waste of Cate Blanchett! But which version will we choose? Listen to find out!
Those of us with consciences may not care about killers—but as movie fans, we sure seem to love them. They certainly show up enough on screens both big and small. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Nathan Weinbender, and Mary Pat Treuthart discuss the work of Patricia Highsmith, an author who made a career out of imagining the inner lives of various sociopaths—including one Tom Ripley, who is the protagonist in the new Netflix series titled, simply, “Ripley.” In this episode, they talk about the series and their other favorite Highsmith adaptations.

Patricia Highsmith's novel The Talented Mr. Ripley follows a young man named Tom, whose deep-seated jealousy and ambition leads him down a very dark path. He wants the jet-set lifestyle his trust-fund friends are living, and he sets out to get it using his intelligence and skill at deception. Tom Ripley is a pretty realistic depiction of a psychopath. To get close to the wealthy people he envies, he puts on a convincing mask of helpful friendliness. But underneath, he's scheming with every breath—biding his time. And no one is safe around him. Join us for the story of a real-life Mr. Ripley, a man who was good at being charming, but bad at being good. A man who left one person dead, one heartbroken and defrauded, and a pretty little town in shock. Join us for the true story behind the BBC drama The Sixth Commandment--the tale of an aspiring vicar whose pious exterior hid a heart of darkness.

https://letterboxd.com/needsintro/list/ripley-recommendations/detail/ This episode delves into the intricate world of crime dramas, starting with an in-depth look at Netflix's 'Ripley,' a series based on Patricia Highsmith's novel, directed by Steve Zalian and starring Andrew Scott. The discussion begins with the series' background, touching on Highsmith's life, the adaptation process, and how the series brings the sociopathic charm of Tom Ripley to life. It further explores the series' pacing, character portrayal, and the decision to film in black and white. The conversation proceeds to analyze a generic crime drama focusing on plot advancements, character dynamics post a significant murder, the portrayal of characters' ages, and the use of black and white visuals to evoke the feel of Italian classics. Thematic elements such as the critique of wealth, societal prejudices, and potential plot holes, like overlooked photographs that could unravel the crime, are examined. The episode wraps up by inviting audience feedback and teases future discussions on filmmaker Alex Garland's works and related film recommendations. 00:00 Welcome to the Ripley Series Deep Dive 01:13 Exploring the Legacy of Ripley and Its Adaptations 02:28 Spotlight on Steve Zalian and the Stellar Cast 08:21 Diving Into Patricia Highsmith's Dark World 14:31 Unpacking the First Three Episodes with Sona 15:17 Transitioning to a Lighter Note: Eclipse Plans and Bluey 17:29 Returning to Ripley: Insights and Comparisons 33:40 The Impact of Aging Characters and Black & White Aesthetics 34:54 Spoiler Alert: Diving Deeper into the Plot 36:17 Exploring the Historical Context of 'The Talented Mr. Ripley' 36:28 The Impact of WWII on Characters and Setting 37:23 Youthful Rebellion and the Beatnik Influence 37:46 Aging Characters and Historical Inaccuracies 38:20 The Confusion of Setting and Time Period 39:42 Analyzing Character Dynamics and Relationships 40:42 The Intricacies of Tom Ripley's Deception 44:58 The Murder of Dickie and Its Aftermath 58:37 The Role of Sexuality and Social Prejudices 01:03:21 Final Thoughts and Series Expectations

In her 1955 novel, “The Talented Mr. Ripley,” Patricia Highsmith introduced readers to the figure of Tom Ripley, an antihero who covets the good life, and achieves it—by stealing it from someone else. On this episode of Critics at Large, the staff writers Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss the long tail of Highsmith's work, which has been revived in adaptations like René Clément's 1960 classic, “Purple Noon”; the definitive 1999 film starring Matt Damon and Jude Law; and a new Netflix series, “Ripley,” which casts its protagonist as a lonely middle-aged con man. In all three versions, Dickie Greenleaf, a wealthy acquaintance of Ripley's, becomes his obsession and eventually his victim. The story resonates today in part because we're all in the habit of observing—and coveting—the life styles of the rich and famous. Social media gives users endless opportunities to study how others live, such as the places they go, the meals they consume, and the objects they possess. “One of the reasons that the character of Ripley is forever sympathetic is the yearning and striving to be something other than himself, following an example that's set out to him,” Fry says. “For him, it's someone like Dickie. For us, it might be someone online.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“The Talented Mr. Ripley,” by Patricia Highsmith“The Talented Mr. Ripley” (1999)“Purple Noon” (1960)“Ripley” (2024)“Saltburn” (2023)“The White Lotus” (2021—)New episodes drop every Thursday.
