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.

我讨厌像你这样的人，不择手段，任性妄为，为了满足自己的私欲不顾他人的感受，任何都可以掠夺，丝毫没有负罪感。编剧借男主之口说出了小爱的人设。
爱子的人物塑造好立体，在电影里居然不会觉得很讨人厌，甚至有点爱上🥹（当然如果现实生活中，可能会很头疼吧）
这部电影的初衷也是希望能够为失去家园的人们带来光明与温暖，消散他们心中还遗留的悲伤与痛苦记忆的回忆， 这部以令人怀念的大海古民居“迷家”为舞台的电影，向我们展示了没有任何血缘关系的的大家庭里大家共同生活的理想生活
直面自己内心的恐惧，大胆抗争，就可以打败外界的魔兽。魔兽赖以生存的是人心中的恐惧，所以，消除自己的恐惧激发出自己的最大潜能，就可以打败魔兽！
前半段现实主义，后面突然进入妖怪的世界，完全割裂。节奏冗长，高潮戏大战竟然瞬间结束，过于简单
女主的性格非常鲜明，强势病娇自私自恋自负情绪化混合出很有记忆点的人设。男主在原生家庭一言难尽的情况下依然保持了清醒自律的品性，这样一个与同龄男相比显得很超脱的男生，被女主女二同时倾慕。就如同简介所说的“三角关系”，本来男主和女二双箭头，可是女主偏要勉强，是女主采取的过激行动引发了命运齿轮的转动。从女主虛情假意接近女二开始，从女二以为是友情而欣喜接受开始，无论出发点是什么从她们接受对方身体开始就注定了结局。整部影片，从女主为女二人工呼吸开始，到女主冲进女二教室结束，最初与最终的对手戏都是她们两人。以及，一直给男主写手写信的女二，最后写手写信的对象变成了女主。而女主读完那封信后就采取了行动。这部影片仿佛在说，要忠于身体的直觉。
女导演拍百合床戏还是蛮唯美的，女主周旋于情侣间最后作出的选择感觉更倾向于双性恋吧。以信为载体展现第三者从窥视→介入→反客为主的过程，再由信件主客体的变更完成主角从情感到心理的双重转变。杏奈超适配这类面相纯良内里却心机深沉的角色，反差感极大（《EERIE~看不见的脸》里的女JK同理）。
「ひらいて」除了展信的意思还意指敞开心扉吧。ai最开始接近miyuki是想破坏她和tatoe共同拥有的狭小世界，之后又在感到孤独的时候向她寻求安慰，亦或是种发泄。在ai展现真实自己的时候，tatoe说她在撒谎，而miyuki在手写信里写道“只要你对我展现了一点真实的你，我就绝对不会忘记那个瞬间”。所以结尾倒也并不意外，因为ai终于意识到miyuki是那个接受了全部的她的人。山田杏奈love scene演技加一星（ps.是女导演太好了）。有些镜头拍得蛮不错的，但剪辑和人物塑造还可以更好。
这电影质量出乎我意料的好。以前看过原著，三个主要角色设定都挺复杂的，她们的性格啊情感啊蛮难通过电影形式精准表现出来，感觉读了作者写出来的文字都不一定能抓住女主心里到底是怎么想的……而且过了青春期以后再看，可能更会觉得莫名其妙，女主就是这么一个相当奇怪的孩子 哈哈哈。山田杏奈还挺有演技的啊，或者说她能贴女主人设，蛮适合的。
女主带病但爱人的能力很强，渴望和他人建立亲密关系但男主从始至终都是逃避，交流靠写信还有躲雨那室内椅子那，女主在学校也属于边缘人物，所以女二的接近很容易触动女主的心，哪怕最后即使知道女二是假装，她也捕捉到了有那么一瞬的爱意！个人认为女主被爱反馈机制很强烈（参考小时候浴室事件所以她就很爱母亲。全剧女主女二感情线清晰，情感描写更丰富饱满，就是he!再睡一次！
虽然是我不太受得了的日式节奏，以及白白的、雾蒙蒙光色，但还是很卡哇伊啦。美雪好美好美呀！《情书💌》+《盛夏光年》。
画风非常nice尤其是回忆录。但是剧情很普通，前期剧情太过于铺垫后期……打败怪兽，怪兽已人类的悲伤为养料emmm。
很莫名其妙的病娇日式百合，诡异奇怪，感觉日本人就不能很正常的拍点尊重少数人群的作品吗
2星给前半部分吧。腹黑女和小绵羊的设定我真的很吃，本来以为剧情是女主为了了解喜欢的男生，去接近小绵羊结果发现自己爱的是女生，对女生更感兴趣，然后2个女生人互相吸引在一起这样的性向启发题材。结果后半部分，腹黑女都和小绵羊亲了，睡了，竟然还能因为被男生拒绝而做出不好好学习，突然从教室跑掉这样极度颓废的事。小绵羊也是，你都和女生毫无心理障碍的亲也信了，睡了睡了，竟然还能说出要和男生去东京这样的话。看到男生因为父亲在家发疯，给女生打电话，还要女生护着的时候，我真的无语到了，他爸虽然不好但说的话挺对的，到最后5分钟的时候，2个女生都还围着阴郁的男生转，结尾却突然给我说，腹黑女还要通过和小绵羊再睡一次确定自己的心意，我真的谢谢你了导演，你这是恶心谁呢？？只有肉体关系没有感情算啥百合片？？？？
非常喜欢神话部份大平晋也流派的呈现，我太爱了！和简单干净的现实世界的表现不会割裂，融合得很好。羊文学的主题曲真好听。考虑补一下川面监督的其他作品。
看了一小时又十分钟30秒。还有30分钟。我看不下去了。

缓慢而温暖，画面太美了。被花墙围起来的家，还有善良的奶奶和热心肠的奇妙物们。
看到这种安安静静的日风动画难免会有点感动和感慨难得。老了真的想找这种地方安度晚年…平平淡淡过完一生。跟百鬼相伴也不是很恐怖，好像看到了夏目或者滑头鬼的影子…
自恋扭曲残缺性格的女主，温柔体贴的女二，蛮带感！
