The American Tom Ripley has been sent to Italy to persuade the wealthy Philippe Greenleaf to return to San Francisco and take over his father’s business. Philippe intends to do no such thing and the impoverished Tom enjoys living a life of luxury, so the two men essentially spend money all day and carouse all night.
