It’s finally time for Tom Ripley, one of cinema’s all time great queer villains (Oliver Quick ain’t got nothing).

Just in time for the film’s 25th anniversary (and a few weeks before the Netflix reboot with king Andrew Scott debuts), we are bringing Anthony Minghella’s 1999 masterpiece to Queer Cinema Club.

Adapted from Patricia Highsmith’s 1955 novel (yes, Tom Ripley and Carol Aird were born in the same glorious queer mind!), this film has everything you could ever possibly ask for: Italy, Aunt Joan, murder, Jude Law being the sexiest golden man who ever lived, Cate Blanchett and Gwyneth Paltrow BOTH mothering, Philip Seymour Hoffman giving us his very best 🚬 (sorry Truman Capote) and, of course, Matt Damon at the absolute peak of his powers.

What do they say about March again? In like a lion, out like a duplicitous gay sociopathic murderer? (If that’s not what they say then they should change it because that’s certainly been our experience).
