Set to broadcast in two one-hour films, this family treat is inspired by the classic books of Barbara Euphan Todd and is pegged to be the TV event of the season. Mackenzie Crook has taken Scatterbrook farm and the infamous characters of this well-loved tale and injected them with a tender and authentic charm. This is the perfect family adventure, packed with a fun, mischievous spirit and delivered with an environmental message.
Mackenzie Crook, (Pirates Of The Caribbean, Detectorists) who has written, directed and stars as Worzel Gummidge, has gathered a host of both accomplished and brilliant actors who are set to appear in this eagerly anticipated adaptation.
Playing The Green Man, creator of the scarecrows, who arrives to Scatterbrook in episode two, is comedy legend Sir Michael Palin. He says: “It’s a lovely part for me, but the whole script is very memorable and touching, and very funny too. It quite skillfully weaves in something for everybody all the time.”
Zoë Wanamaker (My Family, Harry Potter And The Philosophers Stone) will play the eccentric local aristocrat, Lady Bloomsbury Barton in episode two. She says: “The whole thing is so charming and inventive. It’s the sort of thing I’d watch. I’m sure it will be a huge success. I know it will - it’s divine.”
Vicki Pepperdine (Getting On, The Windsors) takes on the role of the formidable Aunt Sally in episode one. She says: “There’s something for everybody. It’s got this heart to it, and you’d be hard pushed as an adult not to engage with it.”
Steve Pemberton (League Of Gentleman, Benidorm) will play Mr Braithwaite, the farmer. He says: “This is the kind of show the whole family can enjoy together. It has a lot of humour, a lot of visual humour too, and I think kids will enjoy watching the children being central to the story.”
Rosie Cavaliero (Gentleman Jack, Cleaning Up) will play Mrs Braithwaite, she added: “It’s a story about the imagination, and children escaping into this different world. Mackenzie’s version is totally contemporary.”
Ones to watch India Brown (Hetty Feather) and Thierry Wickens (making his TV debut) will play Susan and John, two city children spending their summer at Scatterbrook farm who quickly befriend Worzel and begin a summer of adventures.
The first episode, The Scarecrow Of Scatterbrook, sees two young strangers arrive in the village of Scatterbrook. It’s not long before Susan and John encounter Worzel Gummidge, the Scarecrow of Ten Acre Field. Their world is sent spinning into confusion when they realise Gummidge comes to life. The only person more shocked is Worzel, when he discovers that the children are not in fact fellow scarecrows but humans.
Their worlds should never commune but fate has conspired to create an extraordinary union. The seasons have stopped and the harvest hasn’t arrived. The rhythm of the natural world is out of kilter and this unlikely trio must try to put it right. Magic, mystery and mayhem unfurl.
The second episode, The Green Man, welcomes another mysterious arrival to Scatterbrook. The Green Man is the creator of scarecrows and keeper of scarecrow lore. He isn’t at all happy that Worzel is consorting with humans. Elsewhere, local aristocrat Lady Bloomsbury Barton is holding a fete, with a Scarecrow competition that Worzel is determined to win. What will The Green Man and Worzel's most competitive rival, Soggy Bogart make of it all?
Worzel Gummidge is written and directed by Mackenzie Crook and is a Leopard Pictures, Treasure Trove Productions and Lola Entertainment production for BBC One. It is Executive Produced by Kristian Smith for Leopard Pictures, Lisa Thomas for Lola Entertainment, Mackenzie Crook for Treasure Trove Productions, with rights holders Patrick D. Pidgeon and Eric S. Rollman executive producers for Pidgeon Entertainment, Inc. It is produced by Georgie Fallon and Alex Moody is the Commissioning Editor for the BBC.

就是那种典型的无感但是又不得不四星的电影。看的过程中，一直在惦记还没有看完的那几个姐弟恋的剧。是很索金啦！表白萨莎拜伦科恩！最后the whole world is watching~！
漂亮，三星半吧，但我个人敬鸡血而远之，不过自我审视的几笔确实深刻毒辣，令人动容。这法官又蠢又贱神烦。金斯堡在这里面像个神经病。比较起来，我更想看那位黑人被告的故事。
说实话觉得有点可笑 看的过程明显感觉到东西方洗的就不是一套脑啊 西方这套感觉洗的更彻底呢
-The world is watching! - Not really. 美国人不要再我即世界了。
没话说，泪目了，终于等到亲吻了！“我们现在算是交往了吧” “这还用问 当然是啦！” 什么时候还能看到再合体！新兰党好难😭
2019年初更新的《名侦探柯南》TV版终于改编到漫画2017年出版的第1000话，2020年在台湾把这两集2小时编辑成剧场版在电影院上映。修学旅行篇是柯南极重要的一个事件，首先人物登场众多，影响面也很广，杀人事件也是回到了经典水平。最重要的是这个案件故事完成了新兰的世纪之吻，新兰的感情线迈了一大步。青山刚昌亲自对这一镜头创作原画，作画监督也阵容庞大，还有青山刚昌增添的TV版特有的甜蜜片段。世纪之吻的部分更令人感到惋惜，感情线与主线也是分不开的。总之与前后剧集相比都非常出色，值得在电影院中重温经典。
其实一篇民主党檄文未尝不可，一个偏颇的、被编辑的视角也未尝不可，问题在于所有的闪回又都是全知，艾伦·索金有何资格以这种方式自称上帝呢？相比起来还是迈克尔·摩尔更坦诚可爱一些吧！
没想到这种密集对白的戏码竟然比特效大片更过瘾刺激，热血沸腾，在唇枪舌剑中穿插还原事件，这种高能的对白和剪辑我之前只在社交网络和乔布斯里见过，居然都是同一个人的剧作，艾伦索金，记住这个大佬了。
abby是标准的理性主义者 而tom就是标准的政客 永远为了自己的政治前途寻找最佳的路径
在这个时间点放出这样一部电影 政治意涵不言自明 但能影响的往往是不需要被影响的人 只为echo valley里再多一道响声
把人物讲清楚就没法把事件讲深刻，剪辑的拼贴有在加快节奏，然而其实没必要在人物复述当时的时候立刻附送现场记录，叙事太满没有留白。对话信息量很大，多是一般性的表层描述，以及对角色性格的快速摹写（依靠俏皮话和前后反差），涉及到更深的对民权运动的探讨，这种思考是缺席的，尤其离开法庭讨论来到运动爆发的现场，变成了情绪泛滥的作品事故，几乎失真了。波拉特演得好，马克里朗斯得拿个表演奖吧。
相當精彩的劇本和調度,角色設計立體演員也非常出色,由頭至尾相當緊湊,當中不乏很多精彩對白和對於社會上的批判,在此段時間播出,無論在美國或者是對此相當熟悉的香港,真是別有一番體會,Give me a moment, would you, friend? I've never been on trail for my thoughts before
與政府對我的蔑視而言，我對政府的蔑視不值一提
相当具有煽动性 看得一身鸡皮疙瘩 Aaron Sorkin用两部电影证明他不仅是个顶尖编剧 还是个极为优秀的导演 从「Molly’s Game」的传奇人物经历进化到本片激烈的民粹选题 每一场法庭戏的调度都极具水准 神速的剪辑也能给到观影者人文关怀 实在要挑刺是强大的剧作压缩了表演空间
最后念名字是挺讨巧的处理 但是确实很有煽动性 网飞：记录历史我们是专业的
比预期好看，庭审戏能显出索金的优势，整体比较工整，但题材如此也难有花样，剪辑还挺犀利，Sacha最佳。整个审判就是一场political show，被告是chosen ones，不同群体可以在相同的外部压迫下站在一起。再看看当下，希望不灭吧，the whole world is watching
2.观于2019年1月5日、2019年1月12日，本篇是我2014年秋开始看第一遍《名侦探柯南》电视动画以来第一次追上更新进度。（2020年2月2日～11月2日，完成《名侦探柯南》所有动画正序版二刷）。
真的历史不在被记录下来的文字里，真的历史淹没在字与字之间的距离里。历史那么冰冷，静默，以至于那些以血为代价的摩擦，在清扫后也只留下法庭上对博的无力。致敬导演，思考必须严肃。
可以感觉到挺好的，但是作为外语片这么大的信息量还是接受困难，只能明白个大概故事。不明觉厉吧
可以说是最自然最印象深刻的插叙结构电影。剧情 表演 结构加起来五颗星不过分，在庭审里把三个群体的故事讲清楚好牛逼。而且主题深刻“玻璃窗里是50年代，玻璃窗外是60年代”而屏幕前是2020年代，整个制度系统并没什么改变。教员说得好，革命不是请客吃饭。在美国最富足的年代，革命最多还是反战的嬉皮士和部分反父权的精英阶层，黑豹党的简单一笔也是给现在漫威里的黑豹一个大大的讽刺。Hayden所担忧的人们想到美国进步政治只有嬉皮士，一语成谶。而自己进入到体制内也不过是稀释了一点点恶臭的浓度。再借那孙中山遗言“革命尚未完成，同志仍需努力”。最后理想主义的情绪和对逝者的共情是我对这场现代公关战最大的记忆点。
