A SINGLE MAN

110mins : 2009 : Certificate '12A'

Colin Firth rightly took the plaudits for his powerful performance as a sensitive college professor trying to come to terms with the accidental death of his younger lover. But its 1962, he's gay, and, when he is told the funeral is 'only family', his world completely disintegrates.

A Single Man is a romantic tale of love interrupted, the isolation that is an inherent part of the human condition, and ultimately the importance of the seemingly smaller moments in life.

Colin Firth is ably supported by Julianne Moore, wonderful as the gin-soaked best friend who still carries a torch. And the period ambiance is superbly realised by celebrated designer Tom Ford, making his directorial debut. 

Winner of the BAFTA Award for Leading Actor - Colin Firth

Fastidiously sophisticated and thoughtful - Sight & Sound
