With just as much fanfare but a tad less drama, Harry Styles took the Toronto International Film Festival by storm, premiering the tragic gay romance 'My Policeman' less than a week after the much-talked-about debut of 'Don't Worry Darling' in Venice.
in which Styles stars alongside Emma Corrin and David Dawson, features arguably the fullest dramatic performance yet from 28-year-old pop star. He stars as a closeted 1950s policeman in Brighton, England, who falls in love with a museum curator yet marries a local schoolteacher . It’s a tasteful period piece, inspired by the life of “Howards End” author E.M.
“My Policeman” revolves around an unresolved love triangle that plays out across 40 years due to the injustices of British ’50s-era laws against homosexuality and the repressions of several characters. Styles said he considered it a tragedy of lost time. Directed by Michael Grandage and adapted from the novel by Bethan Roberts, “My Policeman” is to open in theaters Oct. 21 before streaming Nov. 4 on Amazon Prime Video. While it hadn’t received quite as much attention as Style’s other fall movie, Olivia Wilde’s Venice Film Festival entry “Don’t Worry Darling,” “My Policeman” appeared to be more warmly received in Toronto, drawing praise for Style’s performance.
