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.
可能我心态不对，就是觉得刻意了点，挺好，但没那么好
科幻寓言小品。一个性格孤僻自绝于同类的人在动物与机器人身上创造关于羁绊、信任及同行的回忆。
虽然并没有这么拍，最后还是着落在政治的腐败，阴谋的反转，正义的伸张，还涉及了印度最根深蒂固的种姓制度。而且拍得挺好，瑕疵就是男主中场才出现，要结尾各种闪回来补充人物。
可是为什么媒体噤若寒蝉呢，电视上根本不见踪影呢。小学的数学还没忘记，14比13还多1，可是真相呢，真相呢？
如果真是这么拍，就真的敢拍。
诸如韩国印度等大部分国家在电影里能够触碰的话题尺度要超出我们太多，这类影片的受众靠别人的作品来反观自身，从而获得某种程度的心理慰藉和释放。与我们内心不可告人的期待基本一致，这也是很多印度影片在我们这里获得好评的心理基础。就拍摄手法而言，印度导演多少年始终固守的抒情手段、渲染技巧都太过陈旧，叙事的节奏与逻辑就好像在做复制粘贴，所以在印度干导演的难点全部来自内容输出方面。一部将政治、女性、教育、司法体制糅合在一起的犯罪片，后半部分密集的翻转让人生厌，尴尬不说，漏洞百出。
4.警务系统、教育系统全方位的腐败 司法系统是唯一的救赎
震撼人心的神作！印度电影太牛逼，《杰伊·比姆》是我去年观影TOP1，这部《宿敌》很有可能就成为今年观影TOP1了。
条件宽松容易出好电影，但是并不代表一定拍成了好电影。
看到好几个电影的影子，但是看这个老头演戏就很舒服。
我以为只是讨论正义，还想着对手律师怎么这么蠢，结果居然是个套路片，也还是不错的
内容有惊喜。开始以为是简单的除暴安良、争取女权，后来又开始宣传司法程序的正义，接着又说政客和愚民、舆论操控，最后又来以暴制暴、我要复仇。内容比较多，值得一看。缺点是故事主角不断切换，不怎么连贯。
确实有意思，几处反串紧接大幅度反转，的确是重构了不少“气抖冷”套路的典——嚣张横行的土霸王F4原来小丑是自己；副警被架空土霸王要被保！又气抖冷，我上私刑，爽快！结果告诉你是《神探》，啪啪打脸；又是奸杀暴行按理不能忍吧——但我印度本土化后，“不能忍”居然是个非比寻常的细节，开头又奸又焚整得巨惨烈，但正是这聚光灯下，奸杀恰恰不在此处；死者妈从入庭到出庭也是过山车级别体验，除了副警“人设崩塌”，她还被“绝对正义”律师差点气出心脏病；zz绝对正确的妇女主席也一度被这过于尖锐的律师破防。相对来说，对种姓带来的法西斯式教育观似乎都是其次了。包括庭审初期双方律师的台词处理，影片整个感觉就和那大boss手段如出一辙：用魔法打败魔法。后真相时代，魔法至上！
电影里有我敬佩的美国演员 、喜欢的小动物、通人性的机器人……还需要什么呢？看就完事了
印度的电影，缺啥拍啥，这是最大的民主表现。
落后的国家，落后的体制，竟然为了博取选民的投票而费劲心思操控司法和媒体，真是笑死我了，还好我在中国
震撼人心的神作！印度电影太牛逼，《杰伊·比姆》是我去年观影TOP1，这部《宿敌》很有可能就成为今年观影TOP1了。
“这就是政治 为了赢我会玩任何肮脏的游戏”。“一旦被这种疯狂所煽动 他们就不只是党员了 他们会成为信徒”。政治家们只会让公众看到他们想让公众所看到的对他们有利的舆论导向 也只允许公众发出他们想要的声音。同时再煽动公众的情绪和热血为他们所用。联想起从去年到现在发生的无数公众义愤填膺但至今依旧悬而未决的事情感慨良多 什么时候我们国家才能拍出如此复杂深刻直面现实的电影啊。P.S.学生果然还是最容易被当枪使的一群人啊。
今年又一部伟大的印度电影诞生
每个国家都有各自的问题，是选择直面还是逃避？允许监督还是禁止？允许讨论还是禁止？允许批评还是禁止？
