Comments

_the talented mr ripley_ is anthony minghella's writing and

directorial follow-up to 1996's _the english patient_.  it's

based on the patricia highsmith novel of the same name.

highsmith also wrote the source novel for hitchcock's

_strangers on a train_, one of my favorite hitch flicks.

starring matt damon, gwyneth paltrow, cate blanchett and

jude law, _ripley_ is a tale of swapped identities and the

concepts behind being somebody versus being nobody.  i

haven't seen it yet; i expect to in the next few weeks.

judging from the trailer, it looks really good and is on my

short list of films i'm dying to see before the year is out.

the first three actors i've listed are all oscar nominees,

and one is a winner, but it's jude law everybody should be

watching here.  one day very soon he will break out of these

supporting roles he takes and uses to own films he otherwise

has no right to (_wilde_, _gattaca_) and become a bona fide

this soundtrack features some of the greats of years gone

by, including charlie parker, miles davis and dizzy

gillespie.  gabriel yared offers up yet another wonderful,

under-your-skin score as he did with his haunting work in

_the english patient_.  to top it off, matt damon actually

sings.  yes, the wonderboy has hidden talents.

_the talented mr. ripley_ opens in theatres on christmas
