The Latest (Harry) Styles
Harry Styles has forged his own path long enough that none of us should be surprised when he makes unconventional choices—and yet, with his performance as a closeted officer in the upcoming drama My Policeman, he seems poised to turn heads yet again. Today, Vanity Fair has a first look at Stylesand two of his costars, Emma Corrin and David Dawson.The movie follows a love triangle born in 1950s England, where homosexual relationships are a literal crime, and continues to play out in heartbreaking ways 40 years later, as the characters deal with the repercussions of choices they’ve made. Corrin, luminous as young Diana in The Crown, plays a young woman who marries Styles’s Tom, without knowing he’s already truly, madly, deeply in love with Dawson’s Patrick. Styles’s limited experience as an actor worked well for this part, says director Michael Grandage: “Because he hasn’t done much, he hasn’t developed the ability to work out tricks or even lie. He can only do it truthfully and as he knows it.”
Elsewhere in Hollywood, David Canfield unpacks four true-crime dramas, including The Staircase, that gripped viewers this spring; Jon Bernthal talks about playing the notorious Baltimore cop Wayne Jenkins in We Own This City; Joy Press reviews the new dramedy This Is Going to Hurt, starring Ben Whishaw as an exhausted British ob-gyn; and Jordan Peele releases a final trailer for Nope that does the unthinkable and tells us what the movie’s actually about.
