one lie makes many

I don't know what to belive.--
whatever you do, however terrible, however hurtful. It all makes sense, dosen't it?
In your head you never met anybody who thinks there's a bad person.
Don't you just take the past and put it in a room in the basement? And lock the door and never go in there? That's what I do.
And then you meet someone special, and all what you want to do is toss him the key, say ' open up, step inside', but you can't. Because it's dark and there are demons.
And if anybody saw how ugly it is.
I keep wanting to do that. Fling the door open.
Just let the light in, clean everything out.
If I could take a giant eraser and rub out everything, staring with myself.
-------------------Tom Ripley.
Dictate this passage, and if ever Tom had any conscience, it was when he said it at the piano.
The ethereal episode lullaby for cain, "'Cain was talking to his brother Abel, and the two were in the field, and Cain got up and struck his brother Abel, and killed him. The LORD said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel? "He said, "I don't know! Am I my brother's keeper? "The Lord said, "What have you done? Your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground. opened his mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hands. Now you will be cursed from this land. When you plant the ground, it will no longer work for you, and you will be a wanderer on the ground. '" Genesis 4:1-12
Tom killed Dickie because of jealousy and impulsiveness. Maybe he didn't think that this was just the beginning, and since then he has become a sin-bearing Cain. Tom also hesitated, whether to continue to be himself or choose To be another dickie, but he is hesitant to take on two identities at the same time. It takes a hundred lies to tell a lie. If you find that his identity does not match what he wants, then you will not live It's been a long time. In fact, from the perspective of an outsider, his methods are too unskilled.
The impression of Matt Damon has always existed in his role as Bourne, a man who forgets his identity but possesses stunts; and Ripley's eyes have complex and unspeakable emotions from the beginning, he and dickie together He used to be happy at the time, and there was a trace of fear and hatred in his heart, while he teamed up with dickie to deceive old Greenwood, while trying to cover himself up; I still believe that he was not determined to kill Dickie in the first place on the boat, but Under that complicated feeling, he still lost control. While sinking the yacht into the sea, he slowly closed himself up; as for Freddie, unfortunately became a scapegoat, Tom's secret was to be discovered eventually, and Freddie went to the muzzle because he knew dickie too well. After that, Tom once wanted to abandon one of his identities. He wanted to return to the original Tom, so he had the paragraph on the piano, but the punishment would not end there. The development of things is always inextricably linked. When he wanted to get rid of dickie, it was not so easy. After he killed Pete, I finally couldn't stand Tom's despicable behavior. The only chance God gave to repent was also lost by being strangled by the silk scarf in Tom's hands. The whole movie came to an abrupt end at this point. A play without an ending.
In the end, it will wander on the ground. Whether it's Venice, Greece, or New York.
