@@yourstruly7086 Alright i agree in Plein Soleil Delon was the bomb, but after he was 30 years old, i didnt like him. I dont know, maybe because of the haircut or something.
@@angelvalentinov4824 well I mean James Dean never got the chance to age since he died tragically young. Who knows, maybe he would’ve been an ugly old man.
Lord, Alain Delon was beautiful! I remember seeing him interviewed Dick Cavette. He struggled some with English, and he was very no nonsense and down to earth.
@@Cashcash69 Because there's far more to a film than what you get from its trailer? I mean, I have to assume that you haven't actually seen it if think this spoils it.
@@toddverbeek5113 this is actually my all time favorite film. thats why i watched the trailer adn i noticed that it spilled a lot of plot points in it. i just want everyone to watch the film for themslevs and not have it be spoiled by a trailer have you seen this film?
This man is the most beautiful handsome man I have ever seen, poor George Clooney has taken a back seat since I discovered Alain. He is just perfect and should never have been allowed out of the house :) I have seen several of his movies, including this one and never tire of him. Amazing!!!
Hello, I also watched both films. I must say that there are some things that I liked more in the Anthony Minguella's version, like the amazing confrontation between Ripley and Freddie after Dickie's disappearance. But indeed, the murder of Philippe Greenleaf is more surprising in Purple Noon. The end of the movie is also better in Purple Noon.
The original books author Patricia Highsmith actually said he was one of her favorite actors to play the character, in spite of her dislike of the movies ending
Depends what you value in a movie. The French version has better cinematography and acting from the lead. The American version has more interesting side characters and explores Ripley's motivation more. I prefer the French version but can easily see why someone else would find the American one superior.
Clementine321 The author loved it too. Patricia Highsmith said out out of all the adaptations this actor was her favorite actor to ever portray Ripley. Although I’m told she also didn’t like this movie’s ending so there’s that.
En rétrospective, ce film est probablement l'un des meilleurs que Delon ait fait dans un role parfaitement adapté à son jeune âge de l'époque, tout comme pour Matt Damon dans la version américaine "The Talented Mr. Ripley". Malheureusement pour Delon, plusieurs des roles qui lui ont été offerts et qu'il a accepté par la suite dans les années 60 ne lui convenait pas en raison même de son jeune age et aurait du être incarnés par des acteurs plus agés et plus matures selon moi.
This was intense, and good filmmaking. Tell a story with pictures, it's not rocket science, I learned it the first week of film school. Oh, and don't speilberg it (example: Tom Hanks character in saving private Ryan trying to get coffee out of an expresso machine in a bombed out cafe) We GET IT Steven, he would LOVE some coffee, why don't you OVERDO it some MORE??!! Did you see anything overdone in this trailer? No, maybe the woman eating pasta, maybe. Tell a story with pictures.
I do a film degree as well and I completely agree that's why I only watch interesting European cinema. If a film is directed by anyone without an accent In their name It ain't even worth my time. Dialogue is for chumps and overdoing a scene is exactly what I hate.
Alain is more handsome than James Dean, but James Dean had a different charm... He had that special aura inside him tho, which I don't find in actors nowadays
@@ranmasaotome2876Sobrado en encanto y carisma estaba Alain Delon.James Dean no pasó de ser un chico lindo,como tantos otros chicos estadounidenses.Delon derrocha hermosura,personalidad y encanto.
0:08- Pff, it better. You're over 60 years late! 0:52- In other words, another screwball comedy. 1:24- Clearly taking cues from the Roger Corman version, The Last Woman on Earth (1960), obviously. 3:24- Yes, it's the best movie we've seen Jerry Lewis's The Ladies' Man.
