Simply outstanding in every way - the spectacular black and white scenes and stills taken in Italy of small hidden corners of churches and streets, archways and endless white steps, the subtle, understated acting, the twisted macabre plot, the unending ability of Ripley’s to lie, grand old hotels in Rome, Naples, Palermo with majestic furniture, the dialogues alternating between Italian and English, suspense and anticipation until the very last frame. The series itself is like the powerful yet ominous, dark and light art of Caravaggio whose work and violent life feature like a deep, foreboding almost demonic undercurrent that runs through the episodes gradually becoming Ripley’s alter ego.

I think it’s quite remarkable that they’ve been able to pack together interstellar travel, quantum entanglement, religion, advanced AR and VR, nanotechnology, the cultural revolution in China, the EPR paradox and more… might seem like quite the overdone cocktail mixture… but it’s exciting to see all the cutting edge science and technology wrapped up in international conspiracy and a war of the worlds!!

Absolut fantastisch in jeder Hinsicht 🤩🤩🤩
