Play with Ripley

In this movie, you will find that Tom Ripley is a very interesting man, he kills with no remorse and he uses very minimal provisions for the kill. This is a sequel to Talented Mr. Ripley released in 1999. Both are movie adaptations of the books of the same title by Patricia Highsmith written in 1974 for Ripley's Game and 1955 for Talented Mr. Ripley.

But Tom Ripley does not kill for the sake of killing. He only does it, as he says, when it is absolutely necessary.

The 1999 film is played by Matt Damon and became the new symbol of antihero: cold and charming at the same time. Tom Ripley became a regular character of Patricia Highsmith in 5 more books.

Tom Ripley is a 23 year old orphan raised by two icy aunts.

OpenShot Add Text: Subtitles and Captions

OpenShot is an open source video editing soft. Adding subtitles and captions is quite tricky. Adding subtitles takes effort. Suggestions by GeekOutdoors - You can have the soundwave form displayed so you know where the talking and pausing occurs. - You also use the green marker to help you decide how long the subtitle should be shown. - Encode the subtitles in Notepad so you can easily copy and paste it later on - Turn off the snapping tool which is on by default; to remove subtitle overlap For captions, GeekOutdoors, - used footer text, shortened the duration to like 3 seconds - if you want advanced editing of the text, you will need to download and link Inkscape to OpenShot Check out  basic OpenShot tutorial  or  list of OpenShot tutorial .
