Is Tom Ford the best-dressed film director ever? he's certainly the least prolific, showing no sign at all of venturing into his second film, the first being based on a Christopher Isherwood story he always loved. Colin Firth is simply sensational (winning BAFTA but missing Oscar) and we really believe in the romantic relationship between him and the fleetingly glimpsed Matthew Goode. Julianne Moore and Nicholas Hoult are there to help him not end his life at the end of the day.
The warming up of scenes (Eduard Grau) is absolutely beautiful, never seen this before except of course in Vertigo... Psycho is referenced in a big poster, Abel Korzeniowski's music is also reminiscent of the former. Slow motion scenes e.g. when Firth kisses the dog, sound (only sound is rain when he visits Julianne with the terrible news).
