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.
“what do you want？” 爷爷那一段有点好哭。（3.5）
太过于自我了，不是每条道路都通《罗马》，情感要有，技术也要有
电影跟Branagh的性格好像的感觉，没有太伤感也没有什么大冲突，也没有夸张化离别对于小朋友的影响。祖父母真的是一对儿大可爱。【不知道为什么总觉得黑白电影中再去看一些电影元素显得更清晰……】if you can’t be good, be careful 感觉这句才是最大的无奈。
只是話口未完，2021最被高估電影，還得強調。
没有英国历史背景很难因为暴乱还洗衣粉的小事共鸣
好喜欢这部片子的质感和基调。可能没讲什么大道理，但是导演对家乡的依恋从一首首老歌，一幢幢老楼间流露出来，即使岁月变迁，即使时局动荡，贝尔法斯特永远以一个温馨美丽的地方永远留在一个可爱男孩的心里。我虽然不是爱尔兰人，对于那里的风土人情和政治历史不太熟悉，但是这部片子可以勾起每一个人的童年记忆，那个熟悉的院子，一群熟悉的伙伴，成为我永远的印记。For the ones who stayed.For the ones who left.For the ones who lost.
跳跃的情节，犹豫不绝的父母和没有下文的结局，仿佛导演翻出小男孩日记挑选几个片断拍的。正片用黑白表现出历史感，他们看的电影反倒是彩色的。满脸深深皱纹的奶奶不知是熟悉的演员真的已经垂垂老矣还是化妆效果。妈妈不仅漂亮，身材也太好了，和奶奶站在门口的一场戏，镜头从远处仰拍，哇，修长优雅
彩色到黑白的过度很好；开头展现冲突时环绕升格后一声爆炸进入现实。
贝尔法斯特这个名字包含了太多的辛酸与血泪，它有着太黑暗也太沉重的一段过去，而这种种情绪并不是能那么轻易地就表达出来的…
给五星有点过了，整体显得匠气了些，但无疑是个可爱又真诚的片子。朱迪·丹奇演得实在太好。乡愁真的是太容易击中人了。
刚开始的调度让我想打一星，和罗马比就是个渣渣，后面统一的孩童视角，离开故乡的情绪也能让人感动。最大的收获就是发现性感的多南也会演戏了。但是仍然在提名里是最差一级的，比理查德好那么一点
太装腔作势了。又是总往演员脸上怼着拍的大特写镜头——“催吐镜头”。垃圾导演浪费优质演员。
同时能明显感受到喜欢与不喜欢这电影的地方，故事很走心，这个原创故事很棒，是一本优秀的剧本使然。然而又能感到有目的性地过分炫技，太满当变得溢价。或是剧情转折快，有些东西立体了，有些又有点赶脚。但对于奥斯卡来说技巧多未必是坏事…（7.5分）
7.2 负角度航拍、大仰拍和带天花板、频繁阑珊前景遮挡表示社会环境、跳跃在不同主体不同部分的长镜头、镜头内变速升格、景框的大量使用。孩童视角、个人化的内容，黑白表记忆，穿插影视印象、想象化对社区的留念，一种猛然边做异乡人失去家乡的处境，民族宗教排异的环境中呼唤真情。开头的街道展示复杂多变的运动设计还是不错的。总体形式风格大于思想内容。
太过于自我了，不是每条道路都通《罗马》，情感要有，技术也要有
看的时候我其实不知道当时发生了什么，也不想追究英国当年有着什么样的社会问题，只是觉得故土难离、亲情爱情、两小无猜和思想双标在哪里、在哪个时代、在不同肤色种族之间都是永恒的话题，可能正是这些定义了我们是什么样的人。2000年以前的时光过的也很慢，伴随大规模拆迁也有不断迁徙的人，就像北京旧城改造前，就像三峡大坝修建前…然而时代的滚滚车轮不会扭过来回头看，回过头来的总是那近乡情更怯的灵魂，为了一切忘却的纪念~
肯爵的童年自传片？选择离开真的是一件很难的事情，对离开的人来说是这样，对留下的人来说同样如此。
但最后还是让我感动
3星半，叙事结构有模仿《罗马》的痕迹，都是导演对故土情怀的私人记忆，也讨巧的加了BGM来营造氛围，只是政治背景的设立显得有些刻意，小男孩很有灵气，两位老戏骨演技很稳。
音乐挺有趣的，但是整个故事完全看不进去——太轻了，没有举重若轻，就是单纯飘着……而且感觉导演用彩色的方式在拍黑白，整个画面颜色看起来非常的不和谐……
