Listened to a pivotal moment of the book and was surprised I still have 6 of 9 hours to go. I haven't seen the movie in a while, but if I remember correctly Dickie was around for almost all of the movie. I can't decide if I should rewatch it now, in the middle of listening, or after.

One quibble: the narrator doesn't differentiate clearly between Dickie and Tom.

I started watching the movie. I couldn't help myself. It was so different from the book I stopped. Will finish the movie when I've finished the book. Also, I would totally watch a Ripley tv series, using each book as the story for a season.

Apparently I read this in 2011? I don't remember it at all. Listening to the audiobook this time. Narration is good. I can't help but see Matt Damon, Jude Law, and Gweneth Paltrow in my mind's eye. What are the chances I don't cheat and watch the movie mid-listen? Pretty good, tbph.
