"A Single Man": 10 Years Later & The Enduring Style
Did you know that a film, released a decade ago, continues to resonate with its poignant exploration of grief and the enduring power of style? "A Single Man," Tom Ford's directorial debut, isn't merely a film; it's a masterclass in visual storytelling, leaving an indelible mark on both fashion and cinema.
The film, an adaptation of Christopher Isherwood's novel of the same name, first graced screens in 2009. Its impact, however, transcends the boundaries of mere cinematic entertainment.
