Tom Ford’s A Single Man is an adaptation of Christopher Isherwood’s 1964 novel. It follows a day in the life of George Falconer (Colin Firth), a gayEnglish professor teaching in California. George’s lover Jim (Matthew Goode) was killed in a car accident leaving George alone save for his long time friend and fellow ex-patriot Brit, Charley (Julianne Moore). George spends this particular day saying goodbye to his life, finally appreciating the world around him. Kenny (Nicholas Hoult), one of his students, takes an interest in the professor and tries to befriend him sensing something is wrong. All in all a great film, well worth watching.
