1999

The 1950s. Manhattan lavatory attendant| Tom Ripley| borrows a Princeton jacket to play piano at a garden party. When the wealthy father of a recent Princeton grad
chats Tom up| Tom pretends to know the son and is soon offered $1|000 to go to Italy to convince Dickie Greenleaf to return home. In Italy| Tom attaches himself to
Dickie and to Marge| Dickie's cultured fiancée| pretending to love jazz and harboring homoerotic hopes as he soaks in luxury. Besides lying| Tom's talents include
impressions and forgery| so when the handsome and confident Dickie tires of Tom| dismissing him as a bore| Tom goes to extreme lengths to make Greenleaf's privileges
his own.


With Matt Damon's unsettling performance offering a darkly twisted counterpoint to Anthony Minghella's glossy direction, The Talented Mr. Ripley is a suspense
thriller that lingers.
