After watching it, I have to admit, the movie was amazing.
A well-mannered, shy smile, hard-working, hard-working, but a thoughtful criminal.
A playboy who played around in the world to hurt others, but became the ultimate victim.
This is real life.
Have you ever thought, or even for a moment, why you were not born into a wealthy family, why you have to climb up step by step, why some people can get everything without any effort?
This movie tells such a story. Ripley is just a tuner in the music department, but he plays the piano well, works hard to do his job well, and enjoys music selflessly during work breaks. Dick's father found him, and I thought it would be another story of a hardworking young man.
But he met Dick's father, in order to persuade his son to come back to the world of flowers, he came into contact with Dick's life, and soon became addicted to it, he discovered another completely different way of life, it turns out that eating, drinking and playing can be a person In the whole of life, Dick has a girlfriend, but he still spends time and money, likes jazz, and follows music festivals everywhere. He has all kinds of friends who help out, and Dick is one of them.
In fact, Dick is not stupid, but his way of life changed Ripley's view, he slowly indulged in Dick's life, he even fell in love with Dick a little bit. After an out-of-control quarrel, the supporting role of Dick ended, and Ripley walked towards his own success step by step, relying on his scheming, his talent, and he slickly walked between his two identities, one time Dick, another time. Ripley, he finally lived the life he wanted step by step, he finally bought a piano, he put on Dick's ring, and he also delusionally accepted Dick's girlfriend.
It's a pity that this stupid woman, the only smart thing is to recognize who is the real murderer, she immediately told Dick's father, just when I thought it was going to be revealed, Dick's bad past saved Ripley, Even Dick's father and the private investigator chose to trust Ripley. Seeing this, I actually breathed a sigh of relief, hehe, maybe this is the effect the director wants to see.
So the genius Ripley continued on the loose, seeing him on a boat with his same-sex Peter, looking at the scenery, thinking it was a peaceful ending. But no, the saddest part is about to unfold.
Ripley met the rich girl at the beginning of the film, and a few words of talking about him as a Dick completely released his desire to become a Dick in his heart, so facing Peter, who knew part of the truth, he leaned gently on Peter's back, his eyes contained. Tears, let him talk about the virtues of Tom Ripley, Peter smiled and said: Tom is very talented, Tom is gentle, Tom is beautiful, Tom is a mystery, Tom is not insignificant, Tom has secrets he doesn't want to tell me, I hope he can Tell me, Tom will have nightmares, which is not a good thing. It's a good thing Tom has someone who loves him so much... write it all down, because I think it's such a tender love story.
But such gentle words couldn't save Ripley, he killed Peter anyway, so that one less person knew his identity, and he went on to live in his dark basement, dirty, dark, and go on his own Masquerade life.
There is a lot of information about the film, and there are many places worth pondering. All in all, a pretty good movie.
