Netflix adaptation of The Talented Mr. Ripley fuels tourism to tiny Italian town - but not all locals are happy about it

Airbnb saw a remarkable 93 percent increase in bookings in Ravello, a city located approximately 15 minutes away from Atrani, a seaside town with a local population of less than 1,000 people where Ripley was filmed. Bookings in Minori, another lesser-known spot just 8 minutes away from Atrani, increased by 63 percent, according to the home-sharing site. Released earlier this month, the Netflix series Ripley comes 25 years after the Amalfi Coast was stunningly featured in the 1999 film adaptation of Highsmith's novel. As tourists flock to the picturesque town, local residents and business owners are bracing themselves for unprecedented challenges posed by large crowds this summer.
What has happened to Amalfi? How wealthy tourists on mega yachts and selfie-hunting Gen Z influencers have adored Italy's glittering coastline, beloved by Hollywood celebrities, as it braces for even more visitors after the Talented Mr Ripley series premiered

The Amalfi Coast has long been a draw for celebrities and tourists alike, with its glittering sea, towns that look like film sets, and a rich tradition of A-list visitors. Whether it's the pearl of Ravello, the clifftop Sorrento, or Positano, which follows a steep hillside, there are plenty of places visitors can visit to soak up the sun and culture. Now, Ripley's latest Netflix series is expected to draw more attention on the Italian coast, especially for the locals who live there, which is likely to be unwelcome. The Amalfi Coast was spectacularly displayed in Patricia Highsmith's book "The Talented Mr Ripley" in 1999 film version. For decades, Amalfi has been a favorite of Hollywood royalty. Greta Garbo, Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, and Gina Lollobrigida were among the many eager visitors. Princess Margaret spent her holidays there with wealthy merchant banker Mario D'urso. However, in recent years, the stretch of coastline has been flooded with selfie-hunting visitors who have surprised locals. Officials in 2022 went as far as banning some tourists from the road to try to solve the overcrowding epidemic.
Incredible story of how Himmler's masseur - who was nicknamed the Magic Buddha and went on to treat Greta Garbo - saved 100,000 prisoners from the Nazis

On February 3, 1945, Heinrich Himmler's (pictured right) enormous, bear-like masseur, Felix Kersten (left), sent his secretary Frau Wacker to Himmler's headquarters north of Berlin with an urgent message: please could the SS chief Himmler be good enough to sign a stay of execution for the dissident Major Theodor Steltzer, who was due to be executed in prison the following morning?
