A Single Man

A Single Man

Director: Tom Ford

Writer: Tom Ford, David Scearce

Cast: Colin Firth, Julianne Moore, Matthew Goode, Nicholas Hoult

Distributor: The Weinstein Company

Country: US

Theatrical Release Date: December 11, 2009

Synopsis: In his first feature film, Ford continues along this rich and aesthetically complex pathway, using the recent history of the photographic image to tell a story both historical and bracingly contemporary. The setting is Southern California and our moment in time is officially the early sixties. We meet George Falconer (Colin Firth), a gay college professor, as he learns that his lover Jim (Matthew Goode) has died in a car wreck. Grief overwhelms him, and his “invisible status” in society begins to close in again. Suicide seems the best way out. But a mad night with Charley (Julianne Moore), his best girlfriend from England, and the unexpected attentions of an angora-sweater-clad young man make George think twice.
