It’s been 25 years since The Talented Mr. Ripley premiered in theaters, and Jude Law says it’s still the role of his that fans most often want to talk about when they see him out and about. After the film premiered in December 1999, Law knew it was a turning point in his life and for his level of fame. “I remember having a conversation with my mother, who said something that I look back on now. She said something like she had to ‘share me’ now,” he tells Variety in a new cover story. “And I think what she meant by that was there was suddenly a sense of people knowing who I was and reaching out to her. She felt like there was a loss of privacy, of intimacy, that needed protecting.”
