Spotlight On Josh


That lovely image of Josh O'Connor (and his award-winning ears!) comes to us via Vanity Fair where they've profiled him here on the occasion of his two movies coming out -- Alice Rohrwacher's wonderful La Chimera is in theaters today (here is my review of that), while Luca Guadagnino's lil' tennis romance Challengers is out in just under a month, on April 26th. I don't have a review of Challengers to link to because the universe is unfeeling and cruel and I haven't been able to see Challengers yet. But soon I suppose! Soon you will be mine! Anyway I was hesitant to read the VF chat because they talk a lot about Challengers and I want to know as little as possible going in about specifics -- I mean I've watched the trailers, and miltuple times at that, but I don't want to know any more than, "Three sexy people play tennis, while sexy." That's enough! Sold! But I read the chat anyway and there are some spoilers -- one of them being that apparently the film mentions that Josh's character is supposed to have a big dick and well yeah art imitating real life, that. But there are more spoilers so don't read it if you don't wanna know more than what I have said. Maybe skip that part and go down to the brief Paul Mescal part -- they're filming the gay romance The History of Sound together and that comes up too. A good chat! Just beware the spoilers.
