Featured review
Black cat crossed my path.
Some users complain that Andrew Scott was too old for the part (Alain Delon was 23 when he starred in "plein soleil") but the cast and credits read :"based on Highsmith 's novelS" ; they probably intend a season 2 and maybe more; in the 1959 movie,the ending was "moral" and did not ask for a sequel ;such is not the case here: the five Ripley volumes span at least a decade ,so the choice of an older actor made sense .
On the other hand ,the choice of Eliot Sumner as Freddy Miles is weird beyond comment : Miles was a womanizer bon vivant, a stout man (René Clément forced his star Delon to drag his victim's body from the apartment to the car in real time in 1959);That he may be Dickie's friend is all the more unlikely , since he has only contempt for the inverts -see episode 3-. The choice of an androgynous actor will later be "justified " (by Tom) during the investigation .
The title of the episode ,"Lucio "is the name of the cat of the concierge ; its part is minimal ,even the traces of blood can't arouse her suspicion ;in fact ,it's a nod to Highsmith ,whose great fondness for cats was well known. She would live with plenty of them in her house.
