Magazine Review: Vanity Fair Magazine July/August 2022 Dakota Johnson

 

The July/August 2022 issue of Vanity Fair features a cover story on Dakota Johnson, in which she, frankly displays more personality than she has in a lot of her movies. She comes across as funny, witty, charming, and having no qualms about being a smart ass. She talks about the chaos of filming the "fifty-shades" movies and her career in general. Then, there are several other good articles, one on Congresswoman Val Demmings and her run for US senate, an article on the January 6th attack on the US Capitol, one about the whole Brian Laundrie-Gabby Petito situation, and a very interesting article about the UK's conservative party's ties to Russian money. Vanity Fair, unlike some other magazines, has more than just one or two long articles. Some others have a long cover-story article, and then every other article in the magazine is a page or less. VF does have some short articles, but many of them are as long and detailed as the cover article. Definitely a good read.
