everyone has a talent, and he has three, the genius Ripley said with a smile, one of which is deceit. He's good at deceiving people, and lies casually, with or without reason. Poor, very pitiful, you watch him smile timidly with white teeth, trying to squeeze into a class that doesn't belong to him. He has low self-esteem from the beginning, no matter how talented he is, he is nothing, has no money, no fame, likes pianos but can't own one. Even before he went to Italy, he had no liking for himself like that. He used lies to decorate himself into a more successful character anytime and anywhere. Vanity and inferiority were rooted in his bones. Lies came out casually, maybe he himself believed it. .

Maybe he loves Dick, maybe he loves Peter, or maybe he loves no one, he just loves himself, he's just attracted to that loose, free way of life, he wants to stay with Dick, he wants to become that kind of person. Dear Jude Law's Dick is really charming, beautiful and unruly, with an angelic face, you can't hate him for what he does, you're in heaven when he's close to you, he's such a magical man, and Rip It sank in like a moth to a flame. That was the beginning of the sickness, and it will never end.

After that, Genius began to take full advantage of his talents, lying, imitating, and forging to live a double-faced life. He is bold, careful, and scheming. There were times when I thought he could no longer cover up, but he still managed to save himself. For him, both the people he loves and the people who love him can sacrifice for it. Then he buried them all in the darkest depths of his heart and never thought of them again.
