Episode 171 Purple Noon
Season 18 is upon us and we’re taking a trip to the Mediterranean with the fiendishly clever thriller, Purple Noon (1960). Loosely based on The Talented Mr. Ripley by Patricia Highsmith and starring the oh-so-dreamy Alain Delon, this tense, imposter story is a riveting spectacle of compelling oners, difficult maritime footage, and hot mirror make outs. And while Matt and Ryan may disagree on whether this version is superior to the one from 1999, we definitely agree that Damon is no Delon. Join us as we examine Matt’s stress dream, sample a little booch craft, and witness a Rear Window-style shooting star, this week on Ex Rated Movies!
