Our take

The first film from famed designer Tom Ford, A Single Man is a highly stylized tale of love and loss in the tradition of Wong Kar Wai’s sumptuous melodramas. With deeply felt performances from Colin Firth and Julianne Moore, and direction to match, the film established Ford as a talent to watch.
