| Actor | Production | Notes | |-------|------------|-------| | | The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) | Iconic: golden, sexy, bored, and devastatingly cruel. Perfectly captures Dickie’s magnetism and moral laziness. | | Alain Delon | Purple Noon (1960, French) | The character is named “Philippe Greenleaf” but same role. Delon plays the murderer here (Tom Ripley), not Dickie. | | John Malkovich | Ripley’s Game (2002) | Dickie is long dead by then, but referenced. | dickie greenleaf
