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.
完全看在男主颜值份上，听说这片被雪藏过，看来是明智的。剧情，惊悚，动作，一样没沾边。
想起了PTA的赌城纵横，故事简单却处处透着作者的气息。情节没那么复杂算计，也没有浮夸的爱恨纠葛，有的只是一个祈求宽恕的男人。最好的一点还在于不煽情。
和PTA处女作《赌城纵横》一样，几乎没有展现炫酷的赌博技巧的场面，赌博只是背景板。和保罗施拉德一贯的作品风格，创伤过往的主角，自我毁灭与救赎。监狱虐囚部分的夸张鱼眼镜头有意思，但总体完成不如《第一归正会》。奥斯卡伊萨克梳个大背头还是颇有赌神那神韵的。
施拉德用赌片，犯罪片和复仇片各自的局部模板讲了一个伊战伤痕的故事，这个点观众确实很容易盖到，但作为代价的就是叙事节奏和情节的张力了，伊萨克的表演很好，鱼眼镜头用的可以，但整体看下来，未免失望
保罗•施拉德回归“房间里的男人”之作，回归的还有禁欲式的主角，带着伤痕和过去最后实现复仇
叫你回家探亲，不要去白给啊小伙子
想赎罪，换个别的行业呗，选德州扑克干鸡毛啊！整那气场跟赌神似的，我TM人都码好了，你给我看这个。
这实际是一个关于救赎他人和自我救赎失败了的故事。男主是阿布格莱布监狱虐囚门事件的一名士兵，因为拍了虐囚自拍照，被判刑了，坐牢时自学成为赌神。出狱后成为职业赌徒，收益不错，但精神世界还在坐牢和赎罪，然后遇到了前战友的儿子，儿子一直想找虐囚的上司报仇，男主想帮助男孩精神解脱，最后给钱让其还债回归正常生活，没想到男孩去报仇还死了，男主放弃比赛亲自上阵杀了虐囚上司，然后报警坐牢。影片展现了战争，暴行&PTSD对美军及其家人的伤害，当男主以为自己及男孩获得了解脱的时候，却又发现自己已经无法摆脱心里的阴影，反而在牢里才能获得暂时的平静。这片子我不喜欢，我给3星6.3分，删掉了！
[2021.09.29 @K11AH] +，摄影、构图、色调都挺好的，剧本太弱了。
看到一半我就在担心，这种套路的影片往往会走极端，要么神作，要么装逼，看完我更倾向于后者。切入点还不错，故事也算完整，可惜都是浅尝辄止，无论是牌局还是复仇这两条主线都感觉没有说透，让人郁闷，威廉达福打酱油打的几乎可以忽略不计，而最后片尾出字幕时两人手指隔着玻璃接触居然不是定格镜头，因为我无聊到看完，足足五分钟，这导演是有多变态，给3星差不多了！
套上这个无聊的复仇故事，奥斯卡的魅力可以说少了半分
说实话节奏很慢，如果不是了解了主人公的意图估计也会看的云里雾里还很无聊，但好在拍摄和演员完成的还不错，但仍然避免不了不是那么清晰的能看出作者的意图，所以有些可惜。
5.0分，叙事方式以及文本人设的枯燥导致观影感受很无趣。应该有更好的呈现方式。
像《出租车司机》一个社会边缘愤怒而忧伤的人，又像《海边的曼彻斯特》一个困在悲惨回忆中的人。有胡子的奥斯卡和没胡子的奥斯卡完全是两个人。
保羅許瑞德。Oscar Isaac。好看。
监狱里用鱼眼表现是真压抑
走性冷淡风的导演不该找伊萨克的，他紧实的屁股和壮硕的大腿让整个画面都非常不性冷淡
dreaming away your life
部分桥段的镜头处理跟《第一归正会》一毛一样，当然这部更无聊也更陈旧
3.0。运用非布列松的表演方式和剪辑节奏，去表现布列松的电影内核，这是矛盾而无效的。除去鱼眼镜头带来的压迫感，整体极为散漫。
