The American Friend (Der amerikanische Freund)

In a criminal underworld full of deception, Tom Ripley plays with fire in the art forgery business—until a colleague offers him a more dangerous job: murder. Tom points out a painting artist who is suspected of having a terminal illness, manipulates his fate for money. But when the assembler gets caught in a bloody game, Tom has to step in... or is this all part of his plan? Who is really in control?
