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.
但整个片子感觉凌乱松散，没有紧凑感，观感欠佳。
一些童真，还算有趣，非常怀旧 独特风格的动画书写的时代情书，60年代美国的透视镜？ ps其实现在就在rice和upenn之间抉择 看到jfk在rice演讲我都想去rice了哈哈
很久没这么投入的看完一部片子了，真是爱死哪个年代的音乐
美国有敌对竞争就百花齐放 一切都积极向上的时代
震惊 错愕 不忍卒睹 潸然泪下 而最残酷的事情是 这一切甚至都没夸张 就因为对方说俄语 就向平民开炮 实在是没有人性的行径啊 东乌克兰民兵的反击 也实在是被逼无奈 没有宏大视角 没有史诗叙事 就是一个普通城镇里的故事 就足够让人惊掉下巴 憋屈了两个小时 最后十分钟终于稍稍开怀一下 小绿人来的还算及时 俄罗斯电影独特的色调和叙事布局 还是很有水平的 为了揭露乌克兰新纳粹的罪恶 值得五星！
盧干斯克人民共和國，是烏克蘭盧干斯克州的親俄羅斯武裝分子於2014年4月27日在被占領的州安全部門大樓前宣布成立的有限承認國家，目前得到俄羅斯聯邦、南奧塞提亞共和國和頓內次克人民共和國的正式外交承認。2022年2月21日，俄羅斯承認頓內次克人民共和國和盧干斯克人民共和國的獨立並派駐軍隊維安，隔日更與兩國建交。( from wikipedia)
出乎意料的真实感，有如回忆录般的旁白勾勒出美国60年代的社会与文化，同时也细致地描绘了南部城市孩子的少年生活写照，大概是“看情商正常的young sheldon出演阿甘正传”的感觉。后面阿波罗10号半与11号的登月经历交错剪辑得非常棒，站在stan的视角这段很动人，也喜欢最后睡着了没有看到“第一步”却又什么都经历了的处理方式。给编剧兼导演鼓掌👏🏻
作为电影来说一般，宣传需要更大。前面磨磨唧唧后面好些，但又马上随着毛子的离去戛然而止。假如没了解过相关背景，说实话看不懂。
这种生活还真有点让人羡慕。。。（除了需要接受体罚
使用太多种画法和风格用来表现不同阶段和时空，也导致了全片美术风格不太统一，感觉是由没有执导过动画的导演带来的问题～
没想到是根据爱在三部曲导演的经历创作的！后悔晚知道了！
哈哈哈哈，用飞船造小了骗小孩。后面又接着讲“真科幻”了！！就当成少年的梦挺好的，可别当真了
不看也ok
虽然这部电影是关于美国六十年代的怀旧片，但让我无比亲切的是里面那些童年锁事勾起我这个中国八十后的很多回忆。尤其是有很多孩子的家庭，那时一家人围着黑白电视，跟家人邻里保持着亲密的的关系。怀念以前，真的很美好。
战争永远都是残酷的，但决定战争的只有利益与欲望，从无其它！
无聊，不是美国人无法感同身受，还是多看看中国人自己的东西吧。
画面把童年的所有能记住的记忆点都描绘的不错
对于当代史的构建，音乐、电影、剧集、综艺等所有的流行文化堆砌成普通中产家庭孩子的童年，“亲身”参与了历史的大事件，并自觉地把自己当作是其中一份子，所谓的想象也在那一刻变成了真实，这是一种非常深刻的认同。我小时候看《泰坦尼克号》，没看完结局就睡着了，海水冲进船舱的画面成了不灭的记忆。主观不喜欢这部作品的原因在于，破碎到像是在做文献综述，呕吐“暂停了”50分钟属实没有必要。
但整个片子感觉凌乱松散，没有紧凑感，观感欠佳。
是人类历史性的一刻，不过当往后回想起，真正留存下来的模糊记忆片段是八九岁在太空乐园精力耗尽的一天之后阖家围坐电视机前守直播，跟困意作斗争失败窝在沙发里昏沉睡去。随后母亲替他调整了睡姿，把他的双腿搁在自己腿上。"You could drift off, knowing everything was going to be fine. And you'd wake up the next morning in your bed." 会怀念童年时这种可以在行驶的车厢里毫无顾虑地安心睡去的special comfort.
