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.
结尾还是回到理想主义立场，不愧是艾伦·索金。
历史中发生过的事件，重演过的、近些年又上演的...只是吧不同的对待方式，能让人看见其中的各不同。有的政治审判，还让人看见还有一丝光，还吐露过真相...有的连审判都没有，政治与权力就是审判...这是与我们不同的时代，不同的世界。
斑太可爱了，加✨。老保守左派索金向2020年下的战书（索金眼里的2020=1960，实际上这种语境的呼应也让人迷思），以及生动的ppt展示，Ted talk，网课教学。从头到尾对话没有一秒钟停止过，真是亵渎电影。索金，一个演讲型编剧，风格是高谈阔论和白男支教，但是这种对话结构，在戏剧表现和视听冲击上确实都很讨巧，不过还是适合电视剧的规模。作为电影，用交叉剪辑配合高密度的剧本唤起观众的观影情绪，只是补短而非补长罢了。内容，就怎么说，这算是今年我看过最试图对话严肃命题的商业电影了（含对本时代的一些贬义），感觉很快就会成为各轻知识分子播客对话今年各种activism的隐微材料。
因为疫情产生了文本外的现实主义价值 又由于喜剧结尾在今年回归了浪漫主义 其角色具这两种精神为一身 so beautiful

很久没看到这么劲的群戏和文本了，以至于现在很想去把艾伦·索金之前录过的编剧小课堂恶补一番。顺便说一句和电影不太搭边的，看雀斑君用美音演戏总是感觉莫名的出戏。
尽管那么多人都那么愚蠢，尽管体制常常丑陋而迟钝，尽管暴力似乎总是能够得逞，也绝不要放弃努力和希望，不要轻易地向他们屈膝投降。因为说到底，做一个被世界辜负的人，总比做一个辜负世界的人来得强。
《美国之耻》。
世界上有这么多优秀专业的创作人士，我平凡得就像一棵草☹️
法律、秩序......犀利的言语，颇具史诗气质的叙事。必将拿下奥斯卡最佳影片、最佳男配角。
大爱人间
Debate大于Art的实证。所有的审判都是反道德的，其反面即所有雄辩都是反理性的。抛弃现实的多异性和复杂性，是一种手段，也是目的。
“我们只不过带着某种思想穿越洲际”开篇短短六分钟间就将情绪推向高潮，几乎一直延续到末尾的高强度故事节奏却不显地凌乱，人物形象如洋葱般饱满真实，各有立场且互不相让，带智商的针锋相对才是永远的万金油，最后众声齐口的“The World is Watching”同点睛之笔。（Jerry Rubin你闯什么马路
台词这么密，哦，果然是他编的。整个编剧既有节奏感，又有很多细节，效率高，感情传递和人物塑造也都很成功，词也很厉害，确实很强。演员也很出彩。每次看这种高水平的美国片，心里都很舒服，也比较放松。因为很多不成熟的电影，总是这样那样的问题，甚至一些艺术片，也由于作者个性太强，造成观感稍微有些累。看完这部，我甚至想多找一些历史的书籍看，觉得历史越来越好玩。七君子感觉主观性很强，由于片长限制，也不可能把更多的全貌表现出来，但非常精彩。
B.不能乱啊
我以为节奏感处理得恰到好处，尤其相比索金导演的前作成熟了很多。剧本苛责的话缺少一个让我惊喜的rosebud，希望芬奇能在《曼克》里做到。
Davis 本人对索金的人物塑造持保留意见 缺点或者说窠臼还是有不少的 但让我个人兴奋的 reference 也是不少(别再吹 Eric Clapton 了 Ginger Baker 比他好到不知那里去了) 结尾的煽动性和喊话够直接 —— The Whole World Is Watching 但同时也要看到：Of course, there are very decent police officers in every state but the systemic racism in the police department just can’t be denied. 好歹是本方队友加一分鼓励吧 希望索金还是意识一下自己太白了的缺点 这种白化简直是可怜了的骑墙感
我没想到我找了这么个政治正确的音乐剧😅😅😅😅
片子拍得很好。但有个角度更好：原来美国人如此反感越战，仅仅是因为死了太多美军士兵。难怪现在不上街反战了呢，感谢无人机和导弹，让美国人民对被侵略国家的成千上万死难者眼不见心不烦。越战时越南平民死了多少人呢，哦，统计不出来。
