    Artistically told

    While it started off a bit slow, it definitely picks up. One day in the life of this single man - and life keeps messing up his plans. But as he quotes in the movie, "Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him." Solid performances by Colin Firth, Matthew Goode and Julianne Moore - but would have expected no less from them. (By the way, see Goode in "Imagine Me & You" - fantastic!) The stud from Madrid was indeed "smoking hot" - looking forward to seeing him in future films. I cannot end before commenting on the use of color in this film - absolutely perfect! And the audience followed where the director wanted us to go ... taking the cues from the coloration to see the world through his eyes. Really well done.

    Visually beautiful, emotionally devastating!

    by klv12

    Colin Firth will make you forever forget him as Mr. Darcy; this is the role of his career. The emotional restraint he employs in portraying the title character makes this movie a journey of discovery; Tom Ford's choices work wonderfully for this story; what isn't shown on the character's faces is revealed through color and light in a novel way that never becomes gimmicky.

    A pretty Mess

    I have mixed feelings for this film. Part of the way thru I wondered what all the fuss was about, and I got it, but still its like the gay Precious. It was pretty and well acted but no best picture. For Tom Ford's first, its good but trying to be too artistic and really only succeeding at looking and sounding good. I saw see it for the cute guys but don't expect too much of those or much more than a made for TV movie that's really good.
