Film: The Talented Mr. Ripley
July 3 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$5 – $10
Selected by the Executives Branch.
A seemingly immature young man insinuates himself into the life of a handsome, charming heir with deadly results in Anthony Minghella’s lavish film version of the first of Patricia Highsmith’s “Ripley” books, previously adapted as the French film Purple Noon (1960). Matt Damon makes a deceptively sympathetic Ripley, supported by an A-list cast including Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and an Oscar-nominated Jude Law. Ripley received additional nominations for its art direction, costume design, Gabriel Yared’s sinuous score, and Minghella’s screenplay.
DIRECTED/WRITTEN BY: Anthony Minghella. WITH: Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jude Law, Cate Blanchett. 1999. 139 min. USA. Color. English, Italian. Rated R. DCP.
