Фильм Томаса Форда «Одинокий мужчина» доступен для бесплатного просмотра

You probably know Tom Ford as the legendary fashion designer who injected new life into Gucci in the 1990s and became an icon in his own right thanks to the success of his namesake label. However, in one of the most exciting high-profile career pivots of the millennium, he threw in the towel (and velvet) of fashion and decided to become a film director. So far, Ford has directed two movies (though his third is well into production, with a staggering ensemble cast including Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ciarán Hends, Hunter Schafer, Thandiwe Newton, Daryl McCormack and more. But his first film, A Single Man, remains one of the century's most exciting debut that promised Ford as one of the next great multi-hyphenates. And now, it's available to stream for free. What is A Single Man about? Based on the 1964 novel of the same name by Christopher Isherwood, the film takes place over the course of a single day in the life of George Falconer, a depressed and recently widower-ed university professor, as he comes to term with his grief. It's not an easy watch, heartbreaking at times, but the artful visual flair and a quietly devastating Oscar-nominated performance from Colin Firth, make this quite unlike any other film you've seen about grief. Who is in the cast of A Single Man? Colin Firth as George Falconer Julianne Moore as Charley Roberts, George's close friend Nicholas Hoult as Kenny Potter, one of George's students Matthew Goode as Jim, George's dead partner What have critics said about A Single Man? The critical and audience reception to A Single Man was incredibly positive upon release: it picked up the Queer Lion at the Venice Film Festival and Firth picked up the top actors' prize at the same festival, as well as a BAFTA and nominations for Golden Globe, Screen Actors' Guild and Academy Awards. Many reviews pointed out the masterful art direction and fantastic costume design of the film, but a lot of the praise was directed at the performance of Firth. Marc Savlov of The Austin Chronicle wrote that Firth "dons the role of George like a fine bespoke suit", while Rogert Ebert of The Chicago Sun-Times added that he "plays George superbly, as a man who prepares a face to meet the faces that he meets. He betrays very little emotion, and certainly his thoughts cannot be read in his eyes." Where can I watch A Single Man? If you have an Amazon Prime subscription, then A Single Man is included with Prime Video, but if you don't, then don't worry, it's still available to stream for free on Tubi, Plex and itvX.
