After just seeing the movie, 'A Single Man', on DVD, I am totally engrossed by the story line and the beauty of the film. Starring Colin Firth and Julianne Moore, directed and produced by Tom Ford - the film has been criticized in the past for being too perfect. However, I completely disagree. Tom Ford has managed to see the beauty and creativity in the objects that surround us. He has merely cut out the ugly things in life. There is a scene where Colin Firth parks his car in the back car-park of a bottle shop. Fairly uninspiring, however he pulls up in front of a large poster board which looked stunning as it was filmed with the afternoon sunset. I just love how Tom Ford filmed the beauty rather than the ugly.
The story line is simple, for some. Overwhelmingly powerful for me.
