Storyline
| Plot Summary |
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.

| Trivia | Jude Law learned to play the saxophone and Matt Damon learned to play the piano for this film. However while Damon's training enabled him to recreate the proper keyboard fingering, the music heard in the film is played by Sally Heath (the Bach) and Gabriel Yared (the Vivaldi). See more » |
| Goofs | When Tom talks to Marge after he returned home from San Remo, the cover of a Miles Davis LP is visible in the background. It's the cover sleeve of "Tutu" which was released in 1986. However, the movie is set in 1958. See more » |
