In 1958, the charming but penniless Tom Ripley (Matt Damon) is hired by a wealthy magnate to travel to Italy and rescue his son, Dickie (Jude Law), from a life of indolence. Upon arrival, Tom discovers that Dickie has it all – including a beautiful girlfriend, Marge (Gwyneth Paltrow) – and begins to covet his luxurious lifestyle. Although Tom is sexually attracted to Dickie, the latter soon tires of him, and when Tom begins to find himself excluded from Dickie’s coterie, his envy takes a murderous turn. Based on Patricia Highsmith’s novel which also provided the inspiration for the pre-New Wave French classic ‘Plein Soleil’ and Wim Wenders’ ‘The American Friend’.
From the Back Cover
Living a life of leisure on the sun drenched coast of Italy, young Dickie Greenleaf has it all: friends, the love of a beautiful woman and the best things that money can buy. Tom Ripley, on the other hand, has nothing but charm, good looks..and a deadly obsession to take over this rich man’s life! In another landmark motion picture from Academy Award winning director Anthony Minghella, a riveting game of stolen identity unfolds with Ripley’s desperate attempts to stay one step ahead of ever-growing suspicion.
