About The Trailer Of Netflix’s Ripley

In the trailer, we saw that Tom Ripley keeps saying Dickie’s words while looking at himself in the mirror. But Dickie’s friend, Marge Sherwood, thinks there’s something not right about Tom’s calmness. She tells Dickie and the authorities about her suspicions, but they don’t take her seriously.

Marge says in the video, “Tom is someone who uses others for his benefit. He’s using Dickie.” Dickie doesn’t seem bothered by Marge’s worries, but when she pays close attention to Tom, he starts feeling nervous. His confident behavior starts to fade, and he denies knowing what Marge is talking about.

Another character played by Eliot Sumner finds out about Tom’s fake IDs and demands an explanation. It seems like Marge isn’t the only one who sees through Tom’s lies.
