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.
我不想做一个标准要求及其高的观影人哦！其实这个片子也就三星的水平，可是我真的好喜欢狗狗，看到狗狗的片子就会毫不犹豫点开。世界上如果真的有红色狗狗也不错！
观影过程中我内心戏好多，以下为节选：
5.5/10
以后这样的作品能不能不要再进主竞赛单元啊，够浪费时间的，意大利电影有时候真的很踩雷
这片摄影和灯光好厉害，在大银幕上看真的很爽。故事倒是非常简单，拿掉身份设定其实是个男性成长的故事。
期待了一年的电影，不失所望，离奇鬼魅，又是一场造梦之旅。高文逃走我满脸懵逼，看到结局才松了一口气。Every hero has a journey,我们都在成长。/二刷，光影美轮美奂，尤其夜里湖边那场戏,今年最佳了。真的，得在电影院看
很重的土腥味和书卷气。神秘不足、符号过多，如果能延续开篇几十秒的火焰…整个电影都会燃烧起来！鬼魅浮生是导演偶得佳作么？！
8.7 写给至亲的悼词，死亡的意义被描绘地举重又若轻，人们或是嬉笑或是肃穆的望向死者不断改变的象征之物，二者实际没有任何区别。第三幕笔锋一转，以对未尽之作毫不完善的演绎总结这一波三折的"魂归故里"，在粗糙的背景板下略过了人生的跨度，乡愁中更增添了许多遗憾。
因为没有背景而看得一知半解。但前半部分灰白中凋亡一代文学大师、送别和平年代，迎来欧洲分崩离析的那些别扭的、撕扯的记忆，高至诺奖获奖者也需要漫长等待才能魂归故里。也因此对这个作家和他的《钉子》起了兴趣。
仿佛同人改编 在宏大的传说框架下讲述（也不是很小的）小人物成长故事 视听感受好但总觉得不够劲
制作升级了，也塑料了，DP不知道是不是同一个人但减分了。文本中后段城堡段有点破节奏。肯定不如魅影，但依然是好电影。腰带就像那个肆无忌惮的保障，自由却并不存在。导演应该赚到钱了吧！！
黑白片段是近五年最美的影像。
前边黑白段落非常好，钉子这个段落不认可，能感觉到导演想要表达一种漂泊后对于家乡的感情，就是太简单了，总体还是不错的一部个人感情表达的影片，镜头语言真好，就是太个人化，对于导演来说也许是成功的，对于观众就有些欠缺。
除了美工，其他没看出啥好的。色调过暗，看的难受，节奏拖沓，乏善可陈。
妈宝男一夜成长的故事不存在的，所谓死到临头的彻悟，与这一年经历的苦难都毫无关系，只是被预见了未来宿命走向的胆怯所驱使。金发碧眼的女娃在玩弄王冠，真正的未来分明跟高文无关，他还是被off with his head。倒是琢磨下一直隐身的母亲到底是帮他还是在害他（
经过上半部的折磨，下半部果断调成倍速，居然还是觉得节奏慢，典型的装x片
好美好美，阴郁又古典，没想到如此传统（老旧？）故事的影像化会这么美。
当影像看了。叙事太过主观，也就没有观众什么事了。
叙事够简单，2.5吧，整体是两头不讨好的作品。局部表达可以看出Lowery的作者性很羸弱，而投身产业条线后，反倒让人误以为是文艺大导被商业制作禁锢住表达一般。与其说是惋惜，不如说是心疼，一个有文艺梦但拍不出水平的尴尬导演。
依然令人着迷的诡谲氛围感，透着每个人不得不面对的孤独。
