Talented Mr. Ripley, The

Hitchcock lives in this deeply creepy story about a young man with a gift for impressions (Matt Damon) who lets his passions get the best of him. Like the best of Hitchcock’s work, The Talented Mr. Ripley puts you in the shoes of a killer and makes them feel as comfortable as your own. Also features galvanizing performances from Damon
and Jude Law, who plays the American expatriate living in late 1950s Italy whose life Ripley overthrows.
