re: Ripley Netflix

Just finished it tonight. It’s done Film Noir style, and all Black and White, except one small scene. Which turns out to be insignificant which is disappointing. It is aggravatingly slow and drags out WAY too long over 8 episodes. Lead character Ripley does a decent job but gets to be annoying. At some points it seems like a comedy. Dakota Fanning is good. Stings adult child is in it. John Malcovich makes cameo in the last episode. I recall liking the movie from years ago, but not so much for this remake. Disappointing overall.
