As is our Thanksgiving week tradition, The Ankler’s Katey Rich returns to talk about another film with indistinguishable young actors. In 2022, fans and awards prognosticators were hyped for Harry Styles to make the leap to movies and leading man stardom. Amidst the gossip for Don’t Worry Darling, literary adaptation My Policeman loomed, with Styles cast as a man caught in a bisexual love triangle between his wife (Emma Corbin) and the art curator (David Dawson) he secretly loves. The film flashes forward to their older selves as they grapple with the consequences of their actions. All that hype amounted to a film quickly forgotten between its world premiere and its Prime debut.



This episode, we talk about Styles’ disappointing and brief jaunt into films including Dunkirk and Eternals. We also talk about DWD Watch 2022, the film’s TIFF Acting Tribute honor for its ensemble, and the film’s much ballyhooed gay sex scenes.



Topics also include Brokeback Mountain, Emma Corrin’s other 2022 contender Lady Chatterley’s Lover, and the spit.
