Synopsis
To be young and carefree amid the blue waters and idyllic landscape of sun-drenched Italy in the late 1950s; that's la dolce vita Tom Ripley (Matt Damon) craves-and Dickie Greenleaf (Jude Law) leads. When Dickie's father asks Tom to bring his errant playboy son back home to America, Dickie and his beautiful expatriate girlfriend, Marge Sherwood (Gwyneth Paltrow), never suspect the dangerous extremes to which Ripley will go to make their lifestyle his own. Ripley worms his way into the idyllic lives of Dickie and Marge, plunging into a daring scheme of duplicity, lies and murder.
Adapted from the novel by Patricia Highsmith, The Talented Mr. Ripley is a suspense thriller that lingers with Matt Damon's unsettling performance offering a darkly twisted counterpoint to Anthony Minghella's glossy direction.

Reviews
A gorgeously unsettling film.
Sumptuous production, eclectic score, grand performances and engrossing moments of suspense.
5/5 The menace builds as Tom’s deceptions pile up and the locations — Rome, Venice, cliffside Positano — are as gorgeous as the cast.
