Set in Los Angeles in 1962, at the height of the Cuban missile crisis, it is the story of a British college professor (Colin Firth) who is struggling to find meaning to his life after the death of his long time partner. The story is a romantic tale of love interrupted, the isolation that is an inherent part of the human condition, and ultimately the importance of the seemingly smaller moments in life.

Reviews:
"Life, death and living in the moment are the themes of Tom Ford's sublimely thought provoking film about a man who decides today will be different." - Urbancinefile.com.au
"The film is an aesthetic pleasure, like being in a designer hotel, reading a deliciously sad novel." - Times UK
"This is a self-conscious, superbly crafted, deeply felt movie. It's not a gay film but the story of a gay man, a single man in several senses, but also everyman in the way we respond to him" - Observer UK
