"A Single Man" is by no means innovative, ground-breaking or surprising. What it is -- is best quality filmmaking, which is so rare these days. Great script from a good story, great acting, great camera work. Great directing. I watched it without checking out IMDb first, and, being thoroughly impressed, looked the director up. His first movie?? Wow... While I would vote it in at an 8 (maybe 9), I am giving it a 10 just for that. Can't wait for another one from Tom Ford.
Somebody called it "flat as cardboard". Don't fall for that approach. If you are used to look deeper than the surface of your TV screen, you will find a lot to think about. If not -- well, then everything is just as flat as the screen. And for those who detest the idea of gay relationship -- it really does not matter here. It is about how one lived his life, gay or straight.
