Designer Tom Ford Makes Directorial Debut at Venice Film Festival

3
Designer Tom Ford is known for designing well constructed suits. His designs are worn by the worlds most elite and finest. In 2009, Ford has taken to bedazzling the world off the runway as much as he has done for decades on the runway. The Venice Film Festival in Italy was every bit the glitter and sparkle to be expected for any debuting film. It was especially special at this year's event as Tom Ford designer extraordinaire was featured for the first time at the helm of the film directorial debut called "A Single Man." In the history of the film festival the likelihood of being featured on a first debut is unheard of. However, if you are the talented Tom Ford debuting any other way would be simply barbaric and unacceptable.

Fashion to the world of film seems to have come with an excellence and insight from the craftsmanship of beautiful creations the designer painstakingly previously made. The lead actors in this well received by critics debuted is Colin Firth and Julianne Moore. Firth portrays a college professor struggling to come to terms with the recent lost of his life partner. His life partner is played by talented actor Matthew Goode. The best friend who selflessly consoles the grief stricken Firth's character is Moore. The Firth character is as good as leaving this world as well after planning his own suicidal ending but for the tender presence of best friend in Charley (Moore's character).

Moore appears utterly stylized and immaculate from the minute she graces the screen. She is just stunning in everyway and as a matter of fact so is Colin Firth. These two light up the screen and have old Hollywood onscreen rapport that is beautiful to watch. The sensitive subject matter of this heartfelt tale warms even the saddest and most touching scenes. The future for designer Ford in his newly found calling as director appears to be off to glorious start as praise is not merely showered upon the director Ford but also upon leading man Colin Firth. Firth was awarded Best Lead Actor for his touching betrayal of a man who felt that the death of his long-term partner his own life could not go on.
