And then -- read no further if you'd rather not know -- there is a scuffle and Tom kills Philippe and disposes of his body -- safely, so he thinks.

All of these events are essentially just the set-up for the real story, which is about how Tom, improvising brilliantly, plans to get away with the murder and win not only Philippe's fortune but even Marge. Rene Clement's film is shot in [sunny] pastels and a travelog style that works as an eerie contrast to Tom's scheme.

The Nino Rota music doesn't often go for sinister undertones; instead, it's quietly, [un]obtrusively cheerful, which is [all] the creepier (Clement uses less music, less obviously, than Fellini). The young Alain Delon, who in 1960 had not yet matured into his full status as a matinee idol, seems young and callow, which is right for the role; "Purple Noon'' is essentially about an aimless young man who has stumbled onto his life's work.
