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.
南欧与关于驴的意向。平静且悲伤。
画面极美 剧情唯一的进展是最后在图纸上把洞给封底了
吴君如的表演有层次，从泼辣的妇人变得沧桑，疮痍，世俗，崩溃。
戛然而止。我在想，拍一个勘察墓葬的不错啊。 @2021-09-21 22:37:43 @2022-06-03 23:19:56
壮丽，好奇是怎么拍的。喜欢这种单纯的monumental式的电影。最后探到洞底的时候，知道牧羊人也要死去了，但我并不觉得空虚，很释然。
今年刚好大陆香港都出了一部同类型且有真实原型的电影
8分，没有一句台词，画面绝美。对自然的探索也是对其的破坏…（摄影机是怎么下去的呢
片名就将重点放在了母子关系 父亲和弟弟几乎完全隐形//煽情其实还是有打动人的部分 大概是亲子关系至少容易让人动容 而将关注点放在这里也能够让本身对残障运动员的关注再多添一层温柔的暖意//第一次跑得比火车快那段好好看 是把视听剪辑什么都用上了//想起说香港精神是小市民精神 不拼就没饭吃所以爱拼才会赢//这很冲奥
不可否认《妈妈的神奇小子》所素材的人物原型是足够励志且具有丰富解读角度的。底层群体、残障兄长、奥运冠军、香港选手，复杂又具有极大差异性的身份，必然会让苏桦伟深处社会中面临众多割裂和矛盾的时刻。但是对于传记片来说，原型人物永远是作者创作表达的载体，通过原材的取舍和二次创作之后，呈现的是导演要传递给观众的主观意识。在影片中，观众可以看到一些作为香港人，对于社会参与的责任感，也有对于资本化社会的反思，以及底层群体报团取暖的温情。但是推动影片发展的核心主轴，不可争议的必然是浓浓的精神鸡汤。对于运动员的描摹，几乎抛弃所有日常化的训练，转而用一个个直观的困境，将成功推向奇迹，以此呼应“神奇”。看似影片涵盖很多议题，又足够煽情，实则却恰恰体现了导演认知的局限，将原本极为丰富的样本拍得不够真实，又泯然众人。
因为影评博客强烈推荐，买的最后一场，骑了一个小时自行车还迟到了半小时才看上的。声画果然不同凡响，太震撼了，光是坐进来欣赏就很值得了
明明是四口之家，却拍出了单亲妈妈独自拉扯大残疾儿子的感觉。弟弟实惨，父亲存在感为零；奋斗过程轻描淡写，过于顺理成章。
2.5颗星。拒绝阅读，而是纯粹地观看与体验，但我却未获得精神愉悦。【BJIFF-7】
聚焦不一样的人，审视不一样的美。
期待许久并会引发思考但真的没法全神贯注仔细看的电影。这部依旧充满着对自然发展的原始思考：高耸的大楼、年迈的老者与“洞”的深度形成两个个层次的对比，自然高低的延申与时间长短的延续，赋予这部原本属于科教的电影某种哲思。乡间的摄影依旧优秀，但这部缺少了前几部有意突出的自然意象，而拍得更加直接，直接去注视、去见证和去探索。#中途的困意在结尾的绘图水笔对这687米洞穴的勾勒中渐渐消退了。
重复“望着你”“set go"频次过多有煽情过度的尴尬。不过，写励志与亲情的同时呈现运动员尤其是残障运动员的生计困境，这一点很难得。08年他拿到退役前最后一块金牌，风光无限，可接下来的生活怎么样呢？他和电影以外的他们，现在过得还好吗？
Bjiff2021 所谓精神抚慰不过如此，通篇交织生命无言的消逝和苍然的呼唤，不断重复下坠直到脚踏实地。提前宣布是今年北影节最佳，去年的是《蜂蜜之地》。
香港电影怎么了，以前拍底层拍小人物，香港电影是top级别的，这是怎么了？？？这么好的题材，导演甚至不愿意好好塑造人物
北影节最后一站，视听享受，渐入的铃铛声和洞口传递的足球，感受到最初电影的魅力
影片叫洞 半个小时了 洞才出现 全片唯一的台词大概在第十分钟处 看出来了传承 双线叙事以及一些隐喻 电影前一杯奶茶都止不住后半段困了 我的北影结束了 maybe never again
开头老式电视机里对都市生活的侃侃而谈 尾端医生的手电筒和探索队头灯的相似剪辑 以及全篇大段的中远镜头和只有老者的特写镜头 导演意图很明显了 风景很好看 镜头很美
