this movie-per-view, on a cold. It shows another face of love, naked possession, not possessing this person, but eating this person.
Ripley, who relied on his talent, eventually ate his favorite Dickey and became him, but imprisoned himself in this name.
Jealousy is the original sin. The opposite of love is not hate, it is deep jealousy.
The young Jude Law vividly showed us a wandering, unruly rich son Dickey, unscrupulously seeking pleasure, and still unable to dispel the deep boredom and loneliness in his heart. Jude Law perfectly took away all the scenes with a simple externalized symbolic character.
The protagonist Ripley played by Matt Damon is a hundred times more complicated than him. He is gloomy and jealous, extremely clever, and has a calm and restrained madness. But all this scheming was completely defeated by the shadow cast by Dickey's long long eyelashes under the sun.
Dickey is like a plant growing wildly under the sun, always invincible and at a loss as to what to do. There is a scorching breath of death in his bright smile, destined to burn himself to death. Such people cannot be old. So, had to die.
Gwyneth, a sober and keen writer. Blanchett, a rich and vain daughter, Philip Hoffman, an arrogant and contemptuous friend. The sharp acting skills, the first-class plot control, the full details of the original adaptation of the script, and the most important thing is the suspense of the quiet stagnant water, the graceful madness, the extreme love and betrayal, full of adhesive tension.
At the end of the film, Davenport’s Peter, the infinitely gentle Peter, the only Peter who truly understands and truly loves Ripley, lies on the bed and gently tells how he happily loves Ripley’s each A corner. Ripley was behind him, slowly strangling him with a tie, tears streaming down his face. Even when Peter died, he never thought that his lover would bear his heart hurt, still graceful and gentle, drinking softly Ripley's somewhat exaggerated joke.
However, the tragedy is doomed. This tragedy is not Peter's, but Ripley's. Every soul that indulges desire and jealousy until it loses control, we are powerless, we are all in tears.
