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.
同为第三世界受侵略受殖民的人民们，必须要支持，干它奶奶爷爷的日不落贼国。至于动作场面，一点都不夸张。真心话！中国有武功，美帝有超英，印度有神力无可厚非。
我们不能选择所处的时代，我们只能选择如何回应。
“羊群有一个牧羊人，他会用生命保护羊群，那位牧羊人会走遍天涯海角带回失踪的小羊，就算发现小羊已落入虎口，他也会打断虎牙，掰开虎嘴，把小羊带回家。” 每个民族都应该有这样一个牧羊人。
真“武松打虎”式的印度抗英神剧，双男主的设定并不新鲜，加上剧情老套、打斗雷人，只能说是中规中矩的动作爽片。唯一优点就是印度一贯夺人眼球的歌舞 @Netflix
Hope is waiting for other people to act, I have to fight.
就上半部还在究着心弦想着两个人什么时候撕的，下半场就一起抗敌了，当然啊，没有一起怎么能取得胜利，印度悬浮high片的典型之作，狗血至极，但就还行吧。
看完对印度电影获得了一个全新的理解：印度电影的动作戏本质上都是杂技，导演追求的是视听表现上形式化的美感和冲击力，而不是现实逻辑。这一底层逻辑同样能解释为何印度电影有大量的歌舞，以及印度阅兵为啥会搞出奇葩的叠罗汉摩托阵来
年度第一神片，这辈子还没看过这么奇葩的电影，妥妥的印度版战狼，据说已经排到影史前五的欢迎程度，即便所有设置都完全不合理，甚至浮夸到极致，但是三个小时就是能让你看的血脉喷张，中场休息时和仅有的几个法国观众面面相觑，大家都被印度人的强大自恋尬到了
对印度电影(尤其是南印度电影)来说算不上脑洞大开，就是他们一惯的对体能的超级想象，打破各种不可能。实际上，它的剧情编排非常严谨，每一个重要的情节点以及镜头表现的张力都设计得很好，很有革命现实主义文艺的煽动性，只是当它和极度夸张化的英雄形象结合后，就变得很不现实了。本片导演之前的作品，中国观众很熟悉，有[巴霍巴利王]系列和[功夫小蝇]，前者的“英雄”跟本片一样，都近乎被神化，一方面让观众爽到极点，另一方面紧扣历史和民族主题。
印度电影的乱七八糟不同于这个星球上任意一种乱七八糟。他有他独特的乱七八糟美学。
看印度片就是无脑开心，除了片长太长以外没毛病。这部是印度投资最高的电影，也是目前印度影史本土票房亚军（冠军是同一个导演的巴霍巴利王2），海外还有额外两成市场。叶问+战狼式民族主义叙事，双肌肉男主兄弟基情，抗英神剧+美式超级英雄的夸张动作设计，第一人口大国的人海战术群演+CG猛兽混战，再加上印度独有的歌舞段落，合成这么一部超级大片。虽然作为非本土观众来看这样题材也挺狗血浮夸尴尬，但电影最终还是以商业娱乐性为主，而不是灌输教育，所以OK，爽就完了。
二战的电影非常多，但签订苏台德协议场景重现的，第一次看到。这电影不错。
里面那首janani太好听了吧，天籁啊！
Spy thriller 的紧张感拉满，观影感受💯
虽然晓得看印度神片跟看我国抗战神剧一样，不能深思其中的合理性，可是每当看到主角们受了重伤后，上一秒还是奄奄一息，下一秒打起架来就生龙活虎，战斗力爆棚时就忍不住想要吐槽。
实在不是我喜欢的类型，而且长达三个小时简直要我的命，和国内主旋律异曲同工，把敌人搞成脑袋缺根弦的样子，然后两个主演抛弃地心引力和拥有快速痊愈等特异功能将全片从头贯穿到尾，逻辑完全不自洽，特效也十分简陋。
英德CP好磕，嗯，真心好磕，两人同吸一支烟这不就是在神交……此片唯一值得称道的大概就是这点吧，片末德德哭得真心漂亮。把和平使者张伯伦说得忍辱负重，帝国主义国家间瓜分弱国的行为说得道貌岸然真心会笑到，不管签没签过的条约，只要你没有力量，那就跟厕纸没差的道理印证多少次了；以及小黄终于翻身演洗头佬了、就像让TK去演戈培尔一样格格不入。
可能接下来很长一段时间对于这种宝莱坞式的印度电影都会继续产生PTSD了。
我全程：哈哈哈哈哈哈…
RRR有史诗级的氛围，细腻的故事，和好莱坞水平的动作特效，这187分钟的印度“超级英雄电影”比神还要神。
