Just saw The Talented Mr. Ripley a few days ago and was blown away by the cinematography! John Seale, cinematographer for the film, rightly received plenty nominations for his work.

I am sure I might not be the first person to think of this, considering the theme of both the works. Also I read the book ages ago BUT HKA and We The Living come across as very similar in a loose sense? I was just recalling the book out of the blue and they both have a love triangle at the centre of a political upheaval as the central conflict! I may of course be overreaching but many other character traits seem to match as well 😦.

Have started watching Mare of Easttown and while Kate Winslet is obviously amazing, I was blown away by how good Evan Peters is! Maybe out of habit of only seeing him in comedic and light roles, I didn't expect this performance. That Emmy was so well-deserved. Apparently he was intimidated by Winslet in real life as well, which translated into their performance on screen.
