A Single Man (2009)

A Single Man (2009) Cast: Julianne Moore, Colin Firth   The pace of the movie is the what I remarkable remember. You are moving at the same pace at which Colin’s life is moving. Just couple of days into Colin’s life and you really get a know a great deal about him. Enough to feel what he feels, enough to like him/dislike him, enough to know his circumstances and what determines what he does. It’s definitely not recommended if you want a feel good movie, but if you are looking at something intense and with grey matter, pick it.   Julianne Moore, is so good, she speaks her mind esp. about her return to UK, and her chance with Colin.

Well, this is definitely when you would say, ‘wow what a family’. I am not going to discuss the plot, which is pretty much all known. So, let me tell you something about the characters I liked.

Mark Ruffalo as Paul the sperm donor. Absolutely carefree and so cool still…Not bound by conventions, and very very spontaneous. Awesome outfits and an awesome bike. I can use his bike, it won’t hurt one wee bit..,

Julianne Moore. Indecisive, sensitive, humorous, easy going…Julianne was so fun to watch. Esp. when she is during the escapades during the landscaping 

Mia and Josh – adorable kids, have their own ways of handling stuff, still there is a connect. And they need it.

I didn’t quite like how things turned out for Mark. He loved his kids. And he was no stranger in the family. Why couldn’t the family take him in. They were anyways an odd family, and this would have not turned the odds against them. On a more serious note, it would have been a quite a jumbled up state of affair. Who would be who in the family?

Chuck all that, and I say enjoy the movie. You’ll love it.

Marie and Bruce

Honey this and Darling that. You would never ever hear two persons using 'Honey' and "darling' so much before being sarcastic and humiliating the other person..On more a serious note, the whole story happens in a span of day, and at the end of it what was the fuss all about. Exactly what are we all fussing about, does it really matter?

Great to see Mathew drunk and high on spirits.
