I’ll be very honest, when I initially heard that the handsome, successful, and presumably middle-class English actor, Harris Dickinson, was writing and directing a film with a homeless protagonist, I rolled my eyes. After the billionaire heiress’ film about poverty, and Emerald Fennell's trivialization of class in Saltburn, I thought we were done with privileged people cosplaying the lower class. However, it only takes around 10 minutes into the actor’s directorial debut, Urchin, to realize that Dickinson isn’t doing some slum tourism with his first film.
