This past weekend, at a special SIFF screening, I saw the new film A Single Man , directed by Tom Ford , who spent decades making his name and fortune as a fashion designer before applying himself to this film, an adaptation of a novel by Christopher Isherwood, written, directed, and produced by Ford. I've been anxious to see A Single Man since its splashy triumph at this year's Venice Film Festival,...

Prior to watching this trailer, I didn't know too much about Tom Ford's A Single Man except that it was one of three movies playing at TIFF this year with similar sounding titles (The Coen Brothers' A Serious Man and Brian Koppelman's Solitary Man being the other two). After watching this new trailer, I still can't say that I know very much about it, but in a way, that's actually a good thing. This...

Something that didn't cross my mind but did cross the collective minds of VGL and The Advocate: Is the marketing for Tom Ford's film A Single Man (adapted from Christopher Isherwood's classic gay novel) too straight? I don't know if...
When Harvey Weinstein picked up the $2 million rights to A Single Man, he's said to have personally guaranteed director (and former Gucci creative director) Tom Ford an Oscar for Best Director or Best Picture. And though a statuette for either category seems unlikely given '09's 'stiff competition, especially in light of the Coen Bros.' fantastic A Serious Man, a nom(s) remains quite possible. Critical...
