Review of A Single Man (2009) by Donfoster — 20 Nov 2010
A commanding directorial debut from Tom Ford. The film's color literally runs out as George Falconer's (Colin Firth) life meanders toward the completion of his suicide plan.
The writing shows remarkable restraint in avoiding a too harsh indictment of the anti-gay morality of the 1960's.
A terribly sad movie from the first frame, beautifully acted, and designed.
