Tu Vuo' Fa l'Americano - The Talented Mr. Ripley (HD)

Song of the movie
The Talented Mr. Ripley

It's been 17 years since this movie and I'm still waiting for someone that is as perfect as Jude is in this film.

The italian guy singing on stage is called Fiorello. He is one of the most famous and talented Italian commedians of all times. He recently participated in a podcast telling how the director randomly met him during the shootings and decided to involve him in the movie. He is still in good terms with Matt Damon.

When life is cool, this is what it looks like.

This film is great. But watching it is one of the most stressful experiences of my life, I felt like I wanted to explode the entire time.

[sachac]

I just achived my dream : reproducing this exact scene in a karaoke crowded with excited people who loved my performance

[whendovescry]

This is one of the best psychological thrillers ever ever. Directed by Anthony Minghella ( the English Patient) does a superb job creating the look and feel of 1950s Italy. It is a must see!!! Written Patricia Highsmith (Strangers on a Train)

Matt Damon and Jude Law are really handsome! ^^ Favorite scene of my favorite movie!! 

[thegreenskittle]

0:27 - there's something so identifiable about Tom here. He hates his poverty, and it's totally understandable he looks up to Dickie. Handsome, rich, charismatic, fun, "cool" Dickie. I get how he wants to find his identity/purpose by being Dickie's friend, thus becoming "important" by association. If Dickie had let him, I believe Tom would've been a super loyal hang-on, just to be able to enter the elite world. When Dickie rejected him, it stung so much that he lashed out in rage. But we can see that he truly loved Dickie, in his own twisted way, by the way he held the corpse afterward. I feel sorry for Tom, and this was a fantabulose movie.

I have heard many, many versions of this song but this is my favorite..even without the eye candy.

[lucyfromsiberia]

I love this song. Jude Law is just great in this film. It's hard not to fall in love with such a charming, handsome and talented rich guy.

[occlumency]

[learning-from-bs]

Can’t recall how many times I’ve watched this film - never gets old. Never 👌🏼

[whoever_]

A perfect movie! Iconic masterpiece is an understatement ❤
Great scene and song!

[anderswestin]

Most people love this scene for the raw charisma and the great music, but there are more tiers to it than that. The song making fun of an Italian who desperately wants to escape his Italian background and appear American. The first question is if Dickie brings Tom up to sing because he suspects/believes Tom to be someone who is fake, and wants to send a message. The second question is if Dickie realises that the song is equally about himself who refuses to come home to the US and become who his family expects him to be - even down to the line in the song about someone else paying for the fake lifestyle - in the song the mother, in Dickie's case his father. The third question is if Tom realises either of those to questions even exist...

My guesses are 1) Yes Dickie chooses this song intentionally to put Tom on the spot 2) Yes Dickie wouldn't be the Dickie we can't stop being mesmerised by if he hadn't figured that out and still didn't care 3) I think Tom is worried about being found out, but i think he fails to see that the song is equally about Dickie....
