Colin Firth - A Single Man Colin Firth - 單身男人
This is Firth's first Oscar nomination and his performance as a gay English professor grieving for the death of his lover (Matthew Goode) is considered the best work of his career.
這是Firth第一次被提名奧斯卡,他扮演的同性戀英文教授因為愛人(Matthew Goode扮演)的離世而悲傷,這被認為是他演藝生涯的最佳表演。
Although he has received good notices in the past for serious dramas, he remains best known for two things - playing a wet-shirted Mr Darcy in the TV adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, and his comic, uptight Englishman act in everything from Bridget Jones's Diary to Mamma Mia!
雖然他曾因幾部嚴肅戲劇而獲得好評,但他最著名的兩件事卻是——在電視版《傲慢與偏見》中“濕身”的達西先生, 以及他在《布里吉特瓊斯日記》到《媽媽咪亞!》中飾演的充滿喜劇感、保守的英國男士形象。
The buzz around A Single Man began at the Venice Film Festival in September, when Firth, 49, won the best actor prize. He was also nominated for a Golden Globe.
《單身男人》成名于九月的威尼斯電影節,當時49歲的Firth因此贏取了最佳男主角獎。同時還得到了金球獎的提名。
