5 Reasons Why Harry Styles' Movie Debut Will Save The Film Industry

Not to be dramatic, but One Direction’s break is kind of ruining my life.

It’s the first summer in years that I don’t have one of their concerts to look forward to, which will turn into the first fall in forever that I don’t have a new album to anticipate. The timing of this 1D drought is awful, and just so happens to coincide with my rude awakening of leaving college and being thrust into adulthood. To make things worse, Harry Styles cut his long, flowing, beautiful hair, which sent my world crashing down.


Just like Rapunzel’s in Tangled, the longer Harry’s hair grew, the more youthful and powerful I became. However, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, something good is remarkably coming from this series of unfortunate events. Harry donated his hair to the Little Princess Trust, and he will be starring in Dunkirk, a Christopher Nolan film set during World War II.

Even if it means the end of an era, aka the longest Harry’s hair has ever been, this movie has the potential to bring new life to not only me, but the Hollywood film industry as a whole. I feel like one of those moms on Toddlers and Tiaras who thinks their child is gifted and a total prodigy, but let’s be real. If anyone can pull off being the King of Pop and Cinema, it’s Harry Styles. I am beyond convinced that his movie role will be nothing short of pivotal, groundbreaking, and of course iconic, and I will tell you why.

1. He has already proven his acting abilities on the small screen.



I mean come on, have you SEEN the One Direction episode of iCarly? Where was the Emmy for that?

2. Harry reenacted the infamous pottery scene from "Ghost" with his bandmate, Niall and it was truly uncanny.



Just look at the passion channeled into his performance.

3. His acting in the "Best Song Ever" video genuinely stunned me, it was so good.

I guess the short hair was a foreshadowing of what was to come.

4. He also has proven his acting abilities in real life.


Remember when he convinced a good amount of people that his “relationship” with Taylor Swift was totally real and not cooked up in a PR office? It was truly a performance for the ages.

5. He’s Harry f***ing Styles.

He can be flawless at literally anything. The whole movie could be him assembling Ikea furniture for three hours and it would be a masterpiece. In all seriousness, I have no doubt that he’ll do amazing job in the film and shock everyone. Snatch that Oscar!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
