could they be any better-looking?also, the movie: wow. it's minghella's most difficult film, for sure - it takes at least an hour to have some semblance of a plot beyond "italy is pretty!!" - but once it does, it becomes a hitchcockian masterwork. plus, jude law + matt damon ass. if you're like me and just rewatched babel this weekend and realized that a) it really was a spectacularly made exercise in cruelty, more so than even a von trier film, and thus worthless and b) rinko kikuchi spent all the damn time naked and after a while it got tiresome, then the talented mr. ripley ends up seeming like...a nice break. even though it's not a break at all (i mean, it's no love actually).
