Our 200th Episode! For this amazing (and, quite frankly, shocking) milestone, we went back to 1999 to rewatch the first movie Brian, Christina, and their two best pals ever saw together. If only Christina could remember it. Yes, back then, The Talented Mr. Ripley had the hottest of young Hollywood stars - Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett and an Oscar-Nominated Jude Law. It also had a lot of time on its hands; The over-2-hour suspense thriller had its haters. But now, decades later, when everything is a true crime drama, how talented was Ripley, really? The Old Roommates pour some espressos, play some jazz, and give it all a rewatch through their middle-aged lenses. Listen to this.
