Abstract

This chapter explores the intricate character of Marge Sherwood in the Netflix series Ripley, focusing on her relationship with Tom Ripley, her role as a difficult woman, and the ambivalence surrounding her character. It delves into how Dakota Fanning's portrayal reintroduces Patricia Highsmith's original misogyny and ambivalence, contrasting with previous adaptations by Anthony Minghella and René Clément. The chapter also examines the series' exploration of class dynamics, the complexities of Marge's character, and the series' use of difficult empathy. It concludes by highlighting how the series' portrayal of Marge challenges viewers' perceptions and expectations, offering a nuanced and thought-provoking analysis of the character.
