Minghella does not let Ripley off that easily. He devises two characters who fall for the killer and get in his way: a sweet, rich buttinsky (Blanchett) and a gentle homosexual (Davenport).

Like all the people who did their homework in high school, I didn't have a social circle in my immediate environment....As cliched as it may sound, I think I have really come into my own here and do what I am interested in. People do something here because they like it. Like, 'I really enjoy this.' I did opera when I came...
