This movie I walked in with no expectations, having never heard of the book and only having a slight interest in all things Tom Ford.

The movie has a slow start, I was hoping that this wouldn't be a movie you would see in some cheap second hand theatre that only plays ABC type movies but I now see that was needed to capture the reality of the storyline.

Once momentum picked up this movie had me hooked, not only were there moments of light heartiness, passion and a need most gay men want to feel in life, A sense of belonging and a need to be wanted. I left feeling this is a movie everyone should see, just to experience life through this characters eyes. Tom Ford has done a sensational job bringing this to screen the use of coloring throughout gave an extra dimension to the story.

Colin Firth was exceptional in this role, Julianne Moore stunning and Nicholas Hoult to die for.

I give this 4 out of 5
