Leo Tolstoy’s classic novel Anna Karenina <\/em>is referenced early on in My Policeman<\/em>, setting the audience up for a grand and tragic love story. eventually, we arrive at one in which both obsession and betrayal play equal parts. Yet the journey there is rather choppy, fragmented into two time frames that don’t always come together. The transitions are rather awkward; just as the viewer starts to get invested in one story, off we go to the other one.<\/p>\n

Global pop star Harry Styles, in his second movie this fall after Don’t Worry Darling<\/em>, is the eponymous lawman. His name’s Tom, but whose policeman is he anyway? In the 1950s he meets a teacher called Marion (Emma Corrin) and a museum curator, Patrick (David Dawson). He marries one and has a passionate affair with the other. Since it’s Britain in the 1950s where homosexuality is outlawed, it’s easy to guess who he has the affair with and who he’s legally bound to. <\/p>\n
