Harris Dickinson , 28 , directed his first directorial effort, Urchin, on the Croisette this year .

The film stars Frank Dillane as a London vagrant, scrambling about the city trying to hustle up money and lodging.

Dillane plays Mike , a man drifting from post-adolescence into true adulthood while living on the street.

It’s awfully exciting not only to savor a strong debut, but to eagerly look forward to what Dickinson might make next. Perhaps more aspiring actor-directors ought to spend some time in the Criterion closet.
