Staff Picks: The Talented Mr. Ripley

Thursday, October 3 at 7 PM

“The movie is an intelligent a thriller as you’ll see this year. It is also insidious in the way it leads us to identify with Tom Ripley.”
— Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

KPAC presents THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY as part of our Staff Picks series chosen by our very own Kenworthy Staff. This month’s film was chosen by Ocean Locke. In late 1950s New York, a young underachiever named Tom Ripley is sent to Italy to retrieve Dickie Greenleaf, a rich and spoiled millionaire playboy. But when the errand fails, Ripley takes extreme measures. With Matt Damon’s unsettling performance offering a darkly twisted counterpoint to Anthony Minghella’s glossy direction, The Talented Mr. Ripley is a suspense thriller that lingers.

Rated: R | 2 hr 19 min | Tickets: $8 Adult / Film Pass
