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.
7.5 绝了。一个新人导演作品的城市电影触及了人生，爱情，政治，电影，艺术的多个命题，完成度相当之高，最后弄堂的就是全世界的戏谑表达也是有趣。电影语言稍有匮乏但瑕不掩瑜。
就算导演对自己的歌单再有信心，也没必要插入这———么多配乐吧
在上海生活过的人可能更能感受这部电影给人带来的氛围感、共鸣感吧！（21年院线电影除了感谢爱情神话之外，就是隔壁雄狮了
乘兴而来，败兴而归。本以为本片可与《万箭穿心》相提并论，结果竟然跟韩寒导演作品相差仿佛？沪语竟能成为烂俗电影的遮羞布，蔚为奇观焉。强行透过台词 politically correct, 难道不是一种刻奇？
有生之年还能体会到电影院的意义：大家一起放声大笑
1.一部很上海很洋气的电影，这个演员阵容，饭局上互飙演技也是棋逢对手了。倪虹洁还在秀身材，但是本短发控还是更喜欢马伊琍那种知性熟女。
近几年见过的最好的关于现代上海的电影。吹爆周野芒！！！！！！倪虹洁的上海话磕绊得恰到好处。小皮匠的broken Shanghainese也恰到好处。台词太好了。太好了。（吴冕和张芝华一辈了😂（有还潮！旧社会顶穷额拧（疯狂致敬费里尼
永康路画画喝咖啡，五原路买果汁修皮鞋，东湖路蹦迪，外滩十八号办画展，饭桌上摆着桂花糖藕和春卷，汤碗里是甜滋滋的酒酿圆子，看电影要配上老大昌的苔条饼干和天玥桥路的蝴蝶酥……
2.5 / 抓住了一些人物的游离时刻。不过整体的结构还是有些粗糙，基本是在几个高密度戏剧化场景中间穿插直给的信息。前半段编织得还算细，后面就轰隆隆开始拉扯剧情到结尾了。所以，作为一部讲述“神话”、赞美虚构的电影，显然极度缺乏一种对叙事层次的自觉。当然，最受不了的还是这种“生活”是个筐啥都往里装的“释然”姿态（以至于复杂点的人物心理还真没有）。相比之下《爱很美味》确实是不悬浮且有叙事推进的……
两万五的赎金不会将土耳其抵达，方可书写她此时此刻的有钱有闲状态最佳；
和平影都，4.0分。能理解多种反应，但也觉得这么轻快松弛的片子，也没必要背负那么多使劲儿解读（还是太文以载道了）。导演多少是聚焦在一个privileged world（土著、洋楼、编制、涉外婚姻、早期留学生，高度自洽也放弃了经济文化事实的代表性）；但邵艺辉目光是坦率、轻松、温和与细腻的，在这片合成的、相对空旷到可以谈情说爱的空间里，她让所有人处在爱说爱做、却又难以承诺的暧昧里（某种程度上，爱情在这里才是神话，而非工具或扯淡）。最喜欢老乌这条线，感觉到邵艺辉的敏感，老乌（的市民气质及他的神话般的故事）像像是一个本地化了的小神龛，属于那些国门重开后重叠旧梦新章的“世界/上海”叙事的早期信徒；也许错误、也许可笑、但他们真诚且存在；周野芒也演得很不错。
难得国产电影也可以像日本一样拍比较家常、靠近生活的题材，超出预期了
洋酒穿肠，美肴下肚； 谈笑风生，好不快活。以为只是一个中年偶像剧，围绕着庸常琐碎打转；却更像悲喜交加的人生组曲，千滋百味。它没有强行为角色们创造任何选择，而是让各路特色小铺、闲适悠闲的沪味生活浑然一体的洒脱与惬意来作为准则；到底是神话还是笑话，都交由他们自己书写。但更难得的还是齐聚了三位都在近年来因为各种热剧重回人们视线、并且不断值得更多好机会的女演员们；每个人的风姿多彩与绽放的火花仿佛可以加开「沪版《爱很美味》」，让人们感受她们在这个阶段也恣意散发的无边魅力。
老灵额！确是一部与上海气脉相连的佳作。魔都的精明、世故、软糯与包容劲儿，那种华洋杂处传统与现代交汇的气息，还有既忙于油盐酱醋又欣赏得了高雅艺术的底气，都被本片轻盈鲜活得呈现出来。每位角色都刻画得不同于大部分电影中的刻板印象，尤其是女性书写更是丰富而不羁，展厅里李小姐、格洛瑞亚对老白的“女性凝视”令人印象深刻，直言不讳揭露文艺作品中男性视角下单薄片面程式化的女性形象，并让他代表中国（直）男导演道歉。满嘴名言看透人生的“哲学家”修鞋匠讽刺又喜感。多次复现的“艺辉国际学校”与“红拂杂货铺”都属导演的作者签名。烟火味十足的同时也不忘迷影梗儿，老乌的索菲娅罗兰爱情神话与李小姐名牌高跟鞋的真假已不再重要，毕竟只要情感真挚便已足够，结尾如神来之笔，投影仪之光闪耀跃动，观众与演员穿透银幕合一。（8.5/10）

你要问我经验到的上海是不是这样，我觉得不是，但是纠结于还原度本来就是件愚蠢的事情。电影拍得自洽有趣，让外地人看了相信这是上海，浦东人看了相信这是浦西，闸北人看了相信是徐汇，这就够了。发明上海，让上海人都迷糊，以为自己还不够了解上海，这就是最好的上海电影。
摘自长评： “本片的宣传点之一是女性主义，但如果把这看成一个女权故事，那倪虹洁应该睡黄明昊啊，真的会有人在女权故事里想睡徐峥黄磊吗” 哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
电影的调色媚如马伊琍，
看电影前看到有人做BGM整理的我：不至于吧；看完电影的我：下午那个帖是在哪儿看到的来着？？
全天下男人都会犯的错男女换话，各生欢喜后跳一人的探戈也不稀罕你的画；
