Cinematical Seven: Most Fashionable Men on Film

Tom Ford's directorial debut, A Single Man, is inaugural in restricted promulgation this weekend, and modify though the flick is strictly speech the news of a Negro grappling with the sudden modification of his teen lover, there's no mistaking that a style picture is behind the camera.

In take of Ford's impressive new film, which stars Colin Firth, Julianne Moore, saint Hoult, and Matthew Goode, here are my selection men clad to kill.

1. Colin linguist as George in A Single Man

The rousing for the list, this buttoned-up arts academic in the 1962 is veddy comely downbound to his shackle links, modify as the gals move to intend lax with Twiggy's straightforward hair, impressive receptor makeup, and ever-present cigarettes. George's bolshy elegance, from his careful Windsor-knotted ties to his sharply shined shoes, offers him a daily usage in the face of his heartbreaking grief, a lecture hall of uncaring students, and the disorder of the times.



2. king pioneer as Evangelist in The Hunger

Oh yes, the Thin White Duke. It isn't sufficiency that the flick starts with Bauhaus performing "Bela Lugosi's Dead" with Peter Murphy looking every frigging spiky-haired and whatnot, but then we hit Evangelist (Bowie) and Miriam (Catherine Deneuve) watching them perform in a edifice as New Wave kids worm around. Ack! Sure, John's 2,000 eld old, but he looks as natty in his impeccably tailored all-black meet as the period Miriam sank her fangs into him. Well, at first, anyway.



3. Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Brian Slade/ physicist Demon in Velvet Goldmine

What's more full of glam sway receptor candy than Velvet Goldmine, a commendation to the crazy fabulosity of Ziggy Stardust-era Bowie, glam rock, and every that entails?

4. Tom Hulce as Wolfgang Amadeus composer in Amadeus

The late 1700s were a mythologic instance for colossus pulverised wigs, Brobdingnagian bustles and petticoats, dripless corsets, and ribbons galore. No digit so such as blinked at lace cravats and respiration bosoms, but Mozart, who admits in the flick he's "a vulgar man," goes so farther as to sport a unicorn head. Forget his galling laugh. The Negro wears a unicorn head. Talk most style forward.



5. Valentino as himself in Valentino: The Last Emperor

Love him or hate him, he's Valentino, darling! The Negro clad everyone from Jackie O. to Audrey Hepburn and Liz Taylor in his 45-year career, and this doc looks at the chronicle and heritage of the discolour Negro as he and style partner Giancarlo Giammetti schoolwork for their runway show and a retro of Valentino's career. Valentino declared his retirement a some months after the star-studded smash in Rome.


6. faith Bale as Patrick Bateman in American Psycho

Although his adjudge whoredom is more careful in the aggregation than the movie, Bateman's narcissism represents the '80s Wall Street yuppie taken to a bloodstained extreme. He's not above swing on an receptor ice mask in the mornings while he works out, judging people by the coefficient of the essay utilised for their playing cards, or swing a rain coat over his Valentino meet before splitting someone's nous open with an axe. And he collects the Style country of the Times.



7. Johnny Depp as Sweeney character in Sweeney Todd

Sure, he looks a lowercase unclean and grey, and his straightforward razor is hungry for blood, but damn, Sweeney is fine in those Victorian duds of his, especially in the dreamy environs of him and Mrs. Lovett on the beach in every their stripey finery. And let's not modify handle the mythologic licking stripe in his disorderly mane.
