We can all agree that among the most dashing of the mens’ nominees was “A Single Man” lead, Colin Firth, wearing a bespoke Tom Ford suit and vintage inspired cuff-links and studs. The cuff-links and studs are copies of 1920’s vintage models and were a gift from designer/director Tom Ford. According to WENN, the actor even went on to say, “I own a very nice house and I make a nice living, but I am not in a position to own these.” It is those small, delicious details that make a man stand apart amidst a sea of penguin suits and shiny shoes. Gentlemen take note: subtlety is king. We were so excited, we actually tweeted (or as our friends like to say, “twoted”) about it. Here is photo Firth alongside his wife, Livia Giuggioli via USA Today.

Here’s another clip from Tom Ford’s anticipated film, “A Single Man” featuring Golden Globe nominee Colin Firth and Matthew Goode. We’ve showcased several clips over the past month. And if you’ve paid close attention as we have, then you’ll notice the clips are getting gayer and gayer. Ford has defended his film against Gay Ghettoization, saying his film is “not a gay film.” Still, if “A Single Man” is not a gay film, then it’s certainly the gayest-seeming film we’ve seen all year (and we saw a ton of films this year). So, if it looks like a duck and it walks like a duck… then what?

As someone who prides himself on having a love of both fashion and film, no story has intrigued me more than that of Tom Ford’s desire to make a feature film. Many know Ford as one of the greatest living American fashion designers, yet he made it no secret after his retirement from designing that he had his sights set on film directing. Could he translate his meticulous eye and his artistic genius from the fashion world to the silver screen? Or would his penchant for overt sex, evidenced by his racy ad campaigns for Gucci in the late 90s and early 00s, render any film work he’d aspire to make much too campy right out of the gate?  For years, the question lingered. Luckily for us, we finally have an answer.
