Synopsis

To be young and carefree amid the blue waters and idyllic landscape of sun-drenched Italy in the late 1950s; that’s la dolce vita Tom Ripley (Matt Damon) craves – and Dickie Greenleaf (Jude Law) leads. When Dickie’s father, a wealthy ship...

After all, it’s better to be a fake somebody than a real nobody.
