Ford Delivers Isherwood's Novel
PostedFebruary 24, 2010
ReidWriter
from Winston-Salem, NC
Tom Ford's directing debut is outstanding! Details and emotions are accentuated in this film and help to magnify Isherwood's work. Colin Firth's portrayal of Prof. George Falconer is worthy of an Oscar nomination. Ford's use of metaphor and imagery, and fantasy switching from b/w to color cinematography makes you feel like your are watching a classic. There is a quiet demeanor about the pace & tenor of this film, and at times it can appear disconnected or disjointed from the subject matter, but Ford manages this very well along with a superb cast of actors that help this film speak volumes to its audience. Love, loss, depression, renewal, peace.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
