Tom Ripley is struggling to stay afloat, financially and socially, in 1950s New York. Having failed at several jobs, he is dabbling in small-time fraud and living on the charity of friends.

Dickie's charm and lifestyle prove irresistible to Ripley and he embarks on a path from which there is no going back . . .
