It's November 30, 1962. Native Brit George Falconer, an English professor at a Los Angeles area college, is finding it difficult to cope with life. Jim, his personal partner of sixteen years, died in a car accident eight months earlier when he was visiting with family. Jim's family were not going to tell George of the death or accident, let alone allow him to attend the funeral. This day, George has decided to get his affairs in order before he will commit suicide that evening. As he routinely and fastidiously prepares for the suicide and post suicide, George reminisces about his life with Jim. But George spends this day with various people, who see a man sadder than usual and who affect his own thoughts about what he is going to do. Those people include Carlos, a Spanish immigrant/aspiring actor/gigolo recently arrived in Los Angeles; Charley, his best friend who he knew from England, she who is a drama queen of a woman who romantically desires her best friend despite his sexual orientation; and Kenny Potter, one of his students, who seems to be curious about his professor beyond English class.
Leave your thoughts about A Single Man.
| LarsenOnFilmJosh Larsen...offers a raw view of the gay experience that has nothing to do with sex. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsSome films aren't revelations, exactly, but they burrow so deeply into old truths about love and loss and the mess and thrill of life, they seem new anyway. A Single Man is one such film, one of the best of 2009 |
| News of the WorldRobbie CollinIt's fantastic - stunning to look at, with a career best performance from Firth, and a genuinely affecting story. |
| The SpectatorDeborah RossThis is an impressive debut from which I am still reeling a little, and Firth's performance is astounding. |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterThis film addresses the power of love, the pain of loss, the burden of grief and the joy of life with rare insight and compassion. It may also turn your opinion of Firth for ever. |
| CinematismoGuillem Martinez OyaAbout beauty. Preciousness. The pleasures of life and, instead, the horror of this. About love; romantic love and self love. [Full review in Spanish] |
| Toronto StarLinda BarnardA Single Man is more than a pretty movie. It's also a careful examination of love, loss and mourning. |
| BrandonFibbs.comBrandon FibbsA Single Man is one of the most beautiful things you will set eyes on all year. |
| Times-PicayuneMike ScottA beautifully simple, and entirely universal, story about appreciating the little things in life. Colin Firth is magnificent. |
| Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonIt's good stuff, and a big reason that Firth is a shoo-in for a best-actor nomination this year. |
