Our 'Cruising' theme continues with writer/director Carmen Emmi's 2025 film Plainclothes, starring Tom Blyth and queer actor Russell Tovey.
The period film follows undercover NY police officer Lucas, whose job is to entrap queer men in a public bathroom so they can be arrested. The issue? Lucas is struggling with his own sexuality, which is only exacerbated when he falls for Andrew, who has his own secrets to protect.
Topics include: internalized homophobia, more beards, awkward family dinners, and a frustrating/unnecessary visual motif.
