A SINGLE MAN (12A)

Colin Firth delivers the performance of his career and collects a BAFTA for Best Actor as he plays a gay English professor at a Los Angeles college in 1962, whose life is thrown into turmoil when his boyfriend Jim (Matthew Goode) dies in a car crash.  In 1960s California, although the loss might be understood, it's not socially accepted, and George is devastated not to be invited to the funeral.  The film condenses George’s story into one emotion- and event-charged day, following him from the loneliness of his morning, through his day and transformative night.

AN EDUCATION (12A)

The sensation of the London autumn season with the lead actress Carey Mulligan nominated for an Oscar for this, her first major role, as the real life Lynne Barber, coming of age in a big way in 1962 England.   This is the story of a girl from an ordinary middle class English background who wins a place at Oxford but chooses instead a very different education through her relationship with a flashy and worldly 30s older man.  Excellent performances throughout, notably from Alfred Molina as her father and Peter Sarsgaard as the older man.
