Ford's film is an addict for prettiness and in the process resembles an excessively over-designed photo shoot rather than a film.

Tom Ford's directorial debut A Single Man is unspeakably gorgeous to behold. From the glorious cinematography to the impossibly beautiful actors and actresses; no frame is wasted on anything even close to ugliness.

...offers a raw view of the gay experience that has nothing to do with sex.

What the film does fumble is the relationship between George and a student (Nicholas Hoult) whose gaydar he must have set off.

What keeps the film anchored is the growing unease that Firth exudes in quiet, crushing waves. He's always at his best, single-handed.

His first time out, Ford has made one of the best films of the year.

A rare thing-a mainstream, melancholy love story, haunted by the past.

Firth's portrayal of a man repressing his grief while being unable to repress his instinct for love and for life is excellent and moving, while Ford's balancing of depth and surface is precarious but ultimately winning.

In this beautifully tailored drama, content and style have as vital a relationship as George and Jim did. The one would be lost without the other.

One of the year's more satisfying films.

A Single Man still stands as a vivid portrait of life behind a veil, and Firth certainly delivers one of the best performances of the year.

Ford's eye for period detail is exact; brief cutaways, incisive dialogue, and charged glances telegraph the cold-war paranoia and sexual alienation of the early 60s.
