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.
3.5/5. 1968年的人在问我们为50年后留下什么样的形象，50年后的今天，68年的情绪似乎又回到了我们的脸上，就像电影本身，用一场泾渭分明的“故地重演”，来发起似乎早该在68年解决的问题。只是，这个时代的创造变得更平庸，保守地激进着，自由地顺从着，或者像在这里，在温水中观火。
“全世界都在看”嬉皮的景观化连十个红色旅都救不回来，大家仍然是被看的，人质地活着，而且在此中感到振奋和自豪？作为美国左派，存在而无策略，终逃不出为国家家奴。美国滴个人主义者都不要的国家美国里左派为了好好做奴年年递交给法西斯奥斯卡奖的摇头丸电影只能自我感动和上当，一如人们总会被这样营养不良的烂货给蒙骗驯养着，搞搞这种最破烂的题材，听喘息。只是忘记，1886年干草市场暴乱才真正使芝加哥人民伟大，玩文化左派，尽数欺诈
好片，这才是我想看到的六十年代，三个极左群体都特别鲜明，唯一可惜的是黑豹党戏份偏少了（虽然那句can you breathe一定是在指代BLM了）。少搞点Joker这样的假大空吧，历史里的真刀真枪还还嫌少吗？
是否是在暗示老美民众，他们正在过着跟1968相似的时代？
太感动了 从不同的语言一起祷告那里开始哭 im an islander又破涕为笑 me and the sky 太喜欢了🥺
3.5分吧，其实不是品质不够4，是我期望可能有点过高。这么本身有话题性有戏剧性的事件，哪怕已经在群像上做的很棒，但我仍然期待Sorkin同学在价值表达上给我惊喜。。。但除了Tom和Hoffman那段对左派革命者应该呈现什么的争吵以及之后那段对于关键问题“谁挑起来的”平行剪辑高潮，其他部分真的看不出Sorkin的痕迹，连台词里应该透出的灵气都没了。。。高赞短评里的“匠气”说的很到位。
911导致飞机迫降，一大堆来自世界各地不同的语言、信仰、性向、饮食的陌生人被迫隔离封闭在一个小岛。导致的个体巨大的孤独、断层感，与世界割裂崩塌(虽然生活扔要继续)，失去一切被无力所吞噬，在困境中如同cosplay的异样。承受着同样的割裂与孤独的人们无法忍受新闻，走出家门为陌生人做点什么，用宽容与爱去对抗这一切的故事。
（另外这片在豆瓣的排序跟《亲爱的同志》放一起，也不知道是有意无意，哈哈哈哈哈）
History repeats itself
因为我们内心其实都已经站好边了，让原本该紧张的法庭戏观感大打折扣，况且也没有啥戏剧性的转折出现，所以内心毫无波澜的看完了。三星半吧。
"it's nothing compare to the contempt my gouvernment has for me"
虽说是美国之耻，却仍是对美国制度的一次反向肯定：在如此恶劣的处境之下，你仍有借助程序绝地反击的机会。
借古讽今得恰到好处。庭审戏中闪回真实事件场景的剪辑非常有力度。索金的剧本还是那么凌厉。Sacha演得太棒了！只有囧瑟夫毫无存在性完全是个工具人。
political trial的论点很有趣。扣一是去看了原本事件的页面，只能说电影完整还原了，并没有太大的发挥空间。
艾伦·索金果然很擅长利用台词，外加凌厉的剪辑，把电影变得张力十足，就情感共鸣而言，即便不是太了解它的历史背景，它的煽动力还是很强的，最后念名字的桥段，把我看的热泪盈眶的。再有便是群戏强大，每个人都发挥了自己最好的水平。
好电影是不会让我惧怕政治片的。1968真的是一个伟大的年代，革命的年代。简短的发言是4000多因为不正义战争丧命的people，我爱革命的血性，似乎现在没有真正为自由平等的革命，只有挑拨和污蔑的政治行动，愿自由平等终将到来，属于每一个人，也属于过去或现在每一个被污名化的英雄。
我是无情眼泪喷射机，疫情你还我CFA国内巡演啊😭
此类电影看多了都是一个套路，主旋律社会题材，匠气又刻意，有几处剪辑上的亮点（叙说和闪回结合），一看就是奔着奥斯卡去的，估计能接着今年社会运势的东风拿一些提名。看戏外发现更多有意思的地方，小雀斑演的人物是简方达的前夫，当年奥斯卡影帝之争，被小雀斑最后时刻逆转的基顿演了个配角，两人同场出镜
这世界充满苦难与未知的恐惧，但是总有一些阳光与温暖，总有一些东西让我们感受到阳光与温暖，于是我们还能继续活着
多场景人物是个挑战 ，但演员们利用换装、语言、腔调、个人特色和集体行动进行了不错的区分。从因911事件而被困的航班乘客角度来看具体生活，这个根据真实事件改编的故事变得温暖而有力—互帮互助、团结友爱才是人与人间关系的真谛。故事线与音乐台词前后映照、完整叙述，引人深思。Suddenly我喜欢上了机长姐姐的嗓音与气质，并成为了她的小迷妹！& I'm an islander. Welcome to the rock! 2021年版官摄
