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.
妮可老了，眼角已经布上皱纹 巴登胖了，身子已经大腹便便 曾经的男神女神已经开始用演技吃饭了，现在都流行差异化秀演技，艾伦索金的剧本又给他们冲击小金人加了分
片子来了一个尴尬的高潮 又来了一个奇怪的反高潮……就这样吧
我也没想到我会在1小时59分那里被砍一刀。我不是说她的婚姻，我是说她也需要胡佛的电话和一场最佳公关来为自己洗去污名。我的小猫咪，你没有任何大人的电话，身边也只有害死你的公关和至今都在吸你的血的老b们。你怎么办呢，我的小猫咪。
当导演还是很要天赋的 显然索金的天赋点都点在编剧上了 当然了 这部编剧也挺一般的
女性主义表达浅薄得像最后塞进去的贴片广告。
果然，不用二刷，就想对劲了。
好啰嗦，好无聊...legend ma发挥偶尔精彩
这是什么?
3.5。索金的编剧技巧实在是炉火纯青，叙事时空结构、主题表意层次、人物塑造真相统统是多维度交织的。最高维度上，影片书写了电影史中的一个章节，书写了好莱坞制片厂体系由于战后政治动荡和电视等新生活娱乐方式兴起而衰落的时期；另一端则深入内心世界，探究爱情的真谛。中间所夹的，是一出喜剧，同时也是一出喜剧的诞生过程，妮可基德曼在这出喜剧中是演员，同时也是编剧、是导演。而当我们拨开喜剧那愤世嫉俗的讥诮面纱时，看到的是一个饱受挫折的理想主义者，这便是索金企图告诉我们的喜剧的真谛。两位主演的表演、剧本的构思概念都无可挑剔，败在谋篇布局的细节和整体的调度——编剧索金是天才，导演索金很平庸。
采访，戏里戏外的生活互文，妮可基德曼演得真好。
果然，不用二刷，就想对劲了。
再一次无法忍受艾伦索金的风格，把台词塞进电影的每一分钟，政治婚姻性别年龄身材etc所有问题一个不落，毫无重点，生怕观众不知道你什么都想批判。还是那句话，请专注地讲故事，以及过于美丽而自知的姿态就是平庸。表演还是能看的，妮可稳定而出色的演技，哈维尔巴登过于迷人的演唱。寇森演的还像寇森🤦♀️
能看下去但趣味性也真的不大。好莱坞可能真的run out of topics，不断回顾自身，也很难说陷入的是自恋还是自省。妮可的脸虽然越发的僵，但还是很努力的投入了角色，最后在舞台上的一刹那失神确实是本剧最佳。but still，要靠这个拿了影后未免勉强了。
拍的太无聊了，编导大人还是去拍政治题材的合适。
2021年12月22日观看。妮可感觉变样了。
本来以为是商业赌博爽片，没想到是一个故事片，节奏缓慢，配乐极好，但是看起来有点昏昏欲睡，叙事拖沓，角色联系不起来，不过这种调调我是喜欢的，有一种LANADELREY应该来唱主题曲的感觉，也许我睡前看会给分更高吧。
只剩下针锋相对的对白，抖机灵多了就只剩下抖机灵了，哈，这不是一句废话。艾伦·索金不太会拍。
这女的所作所为,我一样都不喜欢！如果如她所言只是让"关心底层"的祖父高兴就在选民登记(?)上勾选共产党,那她确实是视民主政治为儿戏"没能力参与民主制"的白痴。"你猜我是谁?"之后那七八个人名,不是表示女主故意说错调戏男主吗?一直argue这个,她是没get到笑点吗？反正她深夜把同事们叫到影棚,贡献的那笑话真挺尬挺low。感觉不让女同事减肥,本质上还是不想有人跟她比美。作为连续剧演员突然怀孕,不应该像编剧们说声抱歉给你们添麻烦了吗?凭什么觉得天经地义,人家应该给你擦屁股？就算出轨,老公挽救了她的事业,甚至人生，这个时间点离婚...,行吧,你有这权力。
索金的招式似乎也已用尽，他三板斧的力度越来越小，就像鲍尔那样，跑前跑后据理力争精益求精，却依旧没挽救自己的婚姻，索金同样也没能经营好这部电影。
有清晰逻辑真的很重要，这也是片中露西尔经常强调的。逻辑如游蛇穿过一层层套娃下来，从大的麦卡锡主义风暴套创作理念，商业考量，性别博弈，婚姻危机……再套到人的本真情绪，戏中戏，又片中戏外无限都散逸了出去。就是剧情有点臃肿，再简练点就好了。盯着妮可我流演露西尔，不知道妮可自己是不是总有一天会有人扮演她并拍出她和汤姆克鲁斯的故事……
