The American Friend Trailer

Dennis Hopper stars as Patricia Highsmith’s dastardly Ripley (THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY, RIPLEY’S GAME) in Wim Wenders’ THE AMERICAN FRIEND. At an exhibition in Hamburg, Ripley’s immoral machinations are set off when leukemic picture-framer Zimmerman declines to shake his hand. In retribution, he arranges for Zimmerman to carry out a hit, and the dying man spirals out of control in a pan-European world of deceit. 1977 Reverse Angle Library GmbH.
