Ripley

Esta serie sigue la vida de un estafador carismático pero psicópata que construye su vida sobre mentiras y robo de identidad. Somos testigos de sus peligrosos juegos con el destino y sus intentos de evadir la justicia mientras navega por el mundo de los ricos y sin escrúpulos. La tensión aumenta con cada paso que da, llevándolo más profundo a un abismo moral. Es una cautivadora exploración de la psicología oscura y un reflejo de las ilusiones sociales.

    Since his debut in 1955, Tom Ripley has evolved into the ultimate bad boy sociopath, influencing countless novelists and filmmakers. In this first novel, we are introduced to suave, handsome Tom Ripley: a young striver, newly arrived in the heady world of Manhattan in the 1950s. A product of a broken home, branded a "sissy" by his dismissive Aunt Dottie, Ripley becomes enamored of the moneyed world of his new friend, Dickie Greenleaf. This fondness turns obsessive when Ripley is sent to Italy to bring back his libertine pal but grows enraged by Dickie's ambivalent feelings for Marge, a charming American dilettante. A dark reworking of Henry James's The Ambassadors , The Talented Mr. Ripley —is up to his tricks in a 90s film and also Rene Clement's 60s film, "Purple Noon."

    Tom Ripley, el ambiguo y seductor personaje de Patricia Highsmith, inspir la pelcula A pleno sol, de Ren Clment y, posteriormente, El amigo americano, de Wim Wenders.Wim Wenders siempre ha estado fascinado por el universo turbio de Patricia Highsmith: A partir de una mentira inocente, de una confortable traicin, se desarrolla de repente una historia horrible... un torbellino que no puede evitarse porque se conoce demasiado bien. Esto nos puede suceder a cada uno de nosotros. Y de ah que las historias de Patricia Highsmith sean verdaderas.Nada al principio une a Jonathan Trevanny con Tom Ripley. Jonathan es un hombre honesto y pobre que lleva una existencia apacible y gris, junto a su mujer y a su hijo. Por qu Tom Ripley le pide que asesine a dos mafiosos? La razn es que Jonathan Trevanny no tiene nada que perder: enfermo de leucemia, le espera una muerte inminente, Insensiblemente, la conciencia de Jonathan se sumerge en un estado de duermevela. El asesinato de dos mafiosos quiz no sea verdaderamente un crimen; el dinero, que su mujer y su hijo necesitarn despus de su muerte, quiz no sea, en realidad, dinero sucio...Minuciosamente, con su arte maravilloso del suspenso, Patricia Highsmith analiza el lento trabajo de corrupcin en un ser acechado por la muerte, convertido en una marioneta del inquietante Ripley.
