Filming has begun for Us, BBC One’s four-part drama adapted by David Nicholls from his hugely popular novel of the same name.
Tom Hollander (Baptiste, The Night Manager) will be joined by Saskia Reeves (Luther, Shetland), Sofie Gråbøl (The Killing, Fortitude), Tom Taylor (Doctor Foster, The Dark Tower), Iain De Caestecker (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, The Fades) and Thaddea Graham (Curfew, The Letter for the King), with casting by Sarah Crowe. It is produced by Drama Republic and Bandstand Productions.
Douglas Petersen (Tom Hollander) is blindsided when his wife Connie (Saskia Reeves) tells him that she’s not sure she wants to be married to him anymore. Agreeing to still go on their planned family grand tour of Europe, Douglas vows to win back the love of his wife and repair his troubled relationship with their son Albie (Tom Taylor).
Reflecting David Nicholls' signature mix of humour and heartbreak, Us brings the Petersens' poignant and often hilarious story to life, taking viewers with them on their once-in-a-lifetime journey through some of the most beautiful cities in the world.
David Nicholls says: “It’s a huge thrill to see the novel come to life, and with such a wonderful cast and production team. We want to make something funny, touching and beautiful, to really explore marriage and family life, all against this incredible backdrop.”
Tom Hollander and Hannah Pescod say: “We are delighted to be working with Drama Republic and the great David Nicholls in bringing his beautiful novel to BBC One. The trials of the Petersens will strike a chord with many - a family tale for our times.”
Piers Wenger, Controller of BBC Drama, says: “We feel so honoured to be bringing David’s beautiful novel to BBC One and to have the brilliant Tom Hollander and Saskia Reeves playing the leading roles. We are thrilled to work with David and Drama Republic once again and also with Bandstand Productions on their debut drama for the BBC.”
Greg Brenman and Roanna Benn, Executive Producers for Drama Republic, say: “David Nicholls is a unique and rare talent who miraculously manages to intertwine profound emotion with full-on humour. This glorious adaptation has attracted an exceptional cast in Tom Hollander, Saskia Reeves and Sofie Gråbøl. We couldn’t be more excited to begin filming.”
Us is executive produced by Greg Brenman and Roanna Benn for Drama Republic, Tom Hollander and Hannah Pescod for Bandstand Productions, Jo McClellan for BBC One and David Nicholls. It is directed by Lisa Siwe (Temple, Modus) and distributed internationally by BBC Studios. Filming will take place in London, Amsterdam, Venice, Barcelona and Paris.
奇异博士，自以为能看出山之犬形就能看穿一切，却没看到自己在这条时间线上，被放暑假回来的Nightcrawler偷心又反杀的结局。虽然奇异博士疯狂霸凌玛丽珍，但被这么搞死又让人心生怜悯。漂白的Nightcrawler没有心。
傲世独立地弹琴，还是拥有普通庸俗的生活？
张力十足的作品，舒缓的音乐与画面下暗潮汹涌的爱恨。
今年个人目前最佳。冷静的旁观，对阳刚之气的最佳讽刺。
断断续续几次看完了。整体感觉，意义大于可看性。我不是很喜欢前半段的镜头语言，感觉太刻意了，那种在冷静叙事和人物大特写之间的来回切换。后半段的可看性稍微了好了一丢丢。内容当然是扎实的，虽然是胡诌片，但是也下了功夫。片子讽刺美国的整套政治游戏和政客的虚伪，但说真的，某国人民还没跟着一起讽刺美国、然后觉得自己优越性的资格。如果说有什么整体讽刺、不分国籍国家的，大概就是，讽刺每个人都觉得自己很聪明、而别人是蠢货，每个人都是这样。唉。
不是把社会现象粗线条地临摹几笔就可以自称社会讽喻的。纵然在这部电影里散落着现实的影子，我们却遍寻不见投下影子的躯干，更不用说理解那具躯干的肌理和构造了。在我看来这部电影几乎有些招安的味道，让人们在不痛不痒的观影中获得一种最浅层的批判共鸣，一次廉价快餐式的情绪宣泄（男女主角在电视节目上怒吼时替我们完成），这是一种面向不满的满足，一种针对失望之情的娱乐。它绝不可能激发真正的问题意识，而这是任何真诚的社会讽喻作品应该做到、或起码立志做到的。
气氛佳 影片慢 学院派导演通病 看的累。结尾好 让观众也逐渐窒息直至跟着卷福一起死亡。
要是换一个时间点，我肯定只给三星。还能说什么呢？timing就是很重要。面对着荒诞的世界，影像里的一切，都那么熟悉。必须五星了

好吧，让我们一起sit tight and assess。
亚当麦凯依然干净利落、准确且刻薄，唯一的瑕疵是斯特里普和希尔的角色过于卖蠢了点。更微妙的是这部如同超市货架般林林总总展示这个时代愚蠢之处的电影，是网飞出品的。
四点五，菲尔的形象很复杂，观众对他的感情也很复杂，需要仔细想想。

黑了俄国的发射塔，接了个中国的电话，印度完全没出现，America失败了人类就完球，这才叫真正的文化自信，nice～
《犬之力》把同性恋升华演绎成深刻的孤独，去剖析人性的暗面。同性之情不一定是相恋，而是同性间相互理解沟通的一种暧昧情愫。卷福饰演的牛仔农场主菲尔是雄性气质男性，外表暴虐内心敏感；阴柔男子皮特温柔的背后是冷酷理性。皮特走进菲尔内心却暗藏杀机，定调了最后的悲剧主题。菲尔被人理解、懂得，从孤独中解脱之日即是生命终结之时。
前半段不太行…后半段Peter黑化勉强救场。卷福不错。拜托文学改编请别再搞章回体（今年这都第几部了…
前面一大半超现实主义布努埃尔味笑破肚皮，相当给力！结尾回家这段表面温情，其实是显出人类最后的理性智识能量，非常厉害。小李这几年演戏有点开窍了，不知道是不是和塔伦蒂诺厮混多了的缘故。
导演真能藏,也真会藏啊，合着一个多小时都是烟雾弹。
故事本身缺乏新意，但影片的艺术性接近满分。导演宝刀不老，分寸拿捏恰到好处。胖马特戴蒙与邓斯特恋人组合再上阵，但可惜没有足够的化学反应。卷福影帝应该稳了，贡献了一个影史留名的深柜牛仔。导演想说的我看懂了，那就是不论性向，男的都不行。眺望远山的几十秒是影片中罕有的令人放松的时间。
一度以为是the ballad of John and Yoko and Paul and Brian，没想到这么颠覆，摄影美得像数字版的天堂之日
