We’ll Take Manhattan explores the explosive love affair between sixties supermodel Jean Shrimpton and photographer David Bailey. Focusing on a wild and unpredictable 1962 Vogue photo shoot in New York, the drama brings to life the story of two young people falling in love, misbehaving and inadvertently defining the style of the Sixties along the way.

Continuing my self care Aneurin Barnard marathon. This was not that good but it was short and also starred Karen Gillian so I have absolutely zero complaints.
