Single-Sheet

By Chase Kahn

Tom Ford's A Single Man (Weinstein Company, 12.11.09), a 60's film about a in-crisis homosexual (Colin Firth) with a fedora-smoky, dreary "Mad Men" vibe, has its first poster released today. The film received extremely high marks out of Venice and Toronto and by all accounts should provide Colin Firth with a Best Actor nomination. Can't wait.

Clearly, the marketing team at the Weinstein Company is trying to play down the "gay" angle -- this poster makes the film out to be a mumblecore movie with Julianne Moore and Colin Firth.
