Alien at the Movies

My Policeman

This is the story of a love triangle between a policeman, a teacher, & a museum curator set in Brighton, England. It’s about love, lies, distrust, jealousy, guilt, regret, & fear amongst these three: Tom, Marion, & Patrick. We see them in their later lives with flashbacks to their younger days & how they met & became friends in 1957. The film captures their emotions as they fall in love, must face their fears, & try to carry on. This bittersweet love story is about the stigma of being labeled as a homosexual during this period in time. For Harry Styles fan, you do get a glimpse of his naked butt.

Alien gives it 3 “Postcard from Venice” stars out of 4.
