Harry Styles and David Dawson are getting hot and heavy in the first trailer of period gay romance ‘My Policeman.’ Amazon Prime dropped the first trailer of the fall 2022 drama and fans are totally loving it.
It’s a beautifully crafted story of forbidden love and changing social conventions. ‘My Policeman‘ follows three young people – policeman Tom (Harry Styles), teacher Marion (Emma Corrin), and museum curator Patrick (David Dawson) – as they embark on an emotional journey in 1950s Britain. Based on the book by Bethan Roberts, director Michael Grandage carves an endearing portrait of three people caught up in the shifting tides of history, liberty, and forgiveness. It seems to be quite the love triangle.

About ‘The Policeman’
The trailer of the movie opens up with Patrick and Tom observing a painting at his museum. “So how does it make you feel?” Patrick asks. Homosexuality was illegal at this time in history, so the two have to be careful not to expose their affair.
“You can sense the waves,” Tom replies. “You know how strong they are, like swimming in rough surf.”
The two men are seen trading off lines. “You feel they could crush you or take you under,” Patrick says, picking up Tom’s veiled critique. “You just have to let it take hold of you.”
Gina McKee, Linus Roache, and Rupert Everett also star in the film. It follows the three characters in the 1950s and years later in the 1990s. Roache and Everett play older versions of Tom and Patrick, respectively, while McKee takes over Corrin’s Marion in the later timeline.
The teaser features flashes of their intermingled lives. In their older age, the trio is still reeling from longing and regret, but they find one last chance to repair the damage from their past.
Director Michael Grandage wrapped up shooting ‘My Policeman‘ in Venice in June last year.
