Ripley's Game is a 2002 Italian-American-British crime thriller directed by Liliana Cavani and based on the 1974 novel by Patricia Highsmith about the adventures of the con artist and murderer Tom Ripley. The movie stars John Malkovich, Dougray Scott and Ray Winstone.
One of the four gangsters (Sönke Korries) is armed with a stainless steel (not bright enough for nickel finish) revolver. This is a Smith & Wesson style model with unshrouded extractor rod and heavy barrel with ramp front sight. Possible versions are Smith & Wesson Model 64 or Model 65 with 3" barrel.
Jonathan Trevanny (Dougray Scott) uses a subcompact Glock, most likely a Glock 26 for the first assassination. The pistol is fitted with an obviously fake sound suppressor that is screwed inside the barrel.
In the opening scene Terry (Uwe Mansshardt), the bodyguard of the art forgery dealer, carries a pistol that appears to be a Bernardelli P-018 Compact. When Ripley takes the pistol from Terry, it switches to a Star Model 30 (see above) due to a continuity error.
Due to a continuity error, Gregor's pistol temporary switches from M1911A1 to a different M1911-style gun when he approaches to Ripley's villa. This pistol is also nickel plated (or stainless steel) but it has adjustable sights.
During the second assassination, Jonathan Trevanny (Dougray Scott) is armed with a suppressed M1911-style pistol. This gun is a top firing replica, as it can be seen when it fires, but it differs from most common Kimar or Bruni models.
During the encounter on the villa, Jonathan's pistol switches from a Bernardelli P-018 pistol to another, unidentified model that is more compact and has different slide.
When Ripley prepares to repel gangsters' attack on his villa, he is briefly seen with an Over and Under Shotgun in hands. He doesn't use this gun in action.
