"A Single Man" Suddenly Decides To Make the Yuletide Gay

Nothing gay about that. Wait...

We've made some noise about Tom Ford's directorial debut, A Single Man, based on the Christopher Isherwood novel. The book is unabashadly the story of a gay man's life, and indeed, the movie holds true to that. But the marketing has been somewhat straightlaced, playing up the relationship between George Falconer (Colin Firth) and Charley (Julianne Moore).

Perhaps reacting to a slightly lackluster opening box office, or perhaps part of the plan all along, the movie has released a set of stills and a new trailer that get to the heart of the movie, and the relationship that Colin is mourning.

And this is what every man wants to come home to.

But the trailer is what leaves little doubt to the story, and even goes a long way to explaining some of the beautiful stills that had been released in the past.

I'm going to buy my ticket if it comes to my town. What do you think?
