Talented Mr. Ripley

Description:
In late 1950's New York, Tom Ripley, a young underachiever, is sent to Europe to retrieve a rich and spoiled millionaire playboy, named Dickie Greenleaf. But when the errand fails, Ripley kills the playboy and begins to assume his life.

Qvamp says:

Not the most positive portrayal of a homosexual being another entry into the 'gays easily become serial killers' genre. Due to its being mainstream, one could hope that this film might lead the general public to understand the danger of gay men feeling forced to live in the closet, rather than in confirming that gays are evil. But that's probably unlikely.

We are looking for a copy of this. If you own one and want to get rid of it, let us know!
