"My Policeman"

Thomas West and Mark Muster
About this episode

In this week's episode, Aaron and T.J. talk about the new film My Policeman, discussing its tragic narrative, the performances of its cast (including Harry Styles), and whether (and if) it's a film of its time.

Note: T.J. mistakenly refers to Emma Corrin as "her." This misgendering of the nonbinary Corrin was in error, and we apologize for the mistake.
