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.

…警惕某些怼大特写还缓慢变焦拉近且人物还大声呼喊的电影，最后一通闪回其实也是对观众的不够信任。仅是提出了一个话题而已，非要弄得这么苦大仇深，说得太多，音乐太响，总结太明，就不是什么真正所谓的文人电影。
啊，父亲演的太好了！音乐会上东张西望的眼神让我心碎💔感激生活虽然有那么多的不如意，但是能听见美妙的声音，看见美好的事物，给我一切该有的感受。情感把控得太好了！
山下兰芽短浸溪
首先故事线就很戏剧张力：聋哑家庭的正常孩子；每个生活的细节都稳稳地戳到了我：爸妈去接女儿车里巨大的音响让女儿尴尬，女儿的演出爸妈打错拍子的无措，爸妈和老师那个“尴尬”的招呼…这些点点滴滴都没说爱，却都是爱
看了开头十分钟，就知道后面一个半小时会演什么。比起贝利叶一家，差距还是相当明显#2022奥斯卡阅片倒计时#
音乐会上静音的神来之笔，那一瞬间犹如身处一场噩梦，像是一个透明人与世隔绝，无能为力的束缚感，这就是聋哑人的世界吧！
最佳改编剧本奖：《健听女孩》，改编自2014年法国影片《贝利叶一家》。尽管故事的框架延续了原版影片，但细节上的改编，使得这个美国故事变得更臻于完美，比原作更符合现实，更耐看一些。原作《贝利叶一家》里，主角宝拉·贝利叶一家是一个农场主家庭，爸爸身为聋哑人还想着要去竞选本地市长，这个设定使得原本故事显得很荒诞，影片也因此被归为了喜剧片。
3-22 coda在音乐里意味着结束。看之前以为自己不会爱上这部电影，到后面还是被感动，倒也不是电影有多煽情，而是能relate到更多角色的心情。女儿为家庭付出了很多，但是也想拥有自己的人生，毕竟还是高中生，终于开始追求梦想。学校的部分就是glee all over again，谢谢老师的reference，让这部电视剧的影响还能到今天。家庭里，生活有艰难的部分，但是一家人相亲相爱，就是最好的事情了。一个让人开心又流泪的故事，我依旧是爱音乐，这个世界终究是离不开音乐。
但除了各种正确以外，这本质上是个与原生家庭的痛苦剥离却又不得不这么做的故事。
一种沧凉的安慰感。「所以我不研究善变、难懂的人类，要转去研究通透、明净的事物，用事物来忘却我。」
不难看 但是很老套 好像是新题材套了看老模版的感觉
可以做的改动：女儿拒绝打第二句的时候，老师却打对了手语。
最好的那个镜头就是那个突然失声听不到歌声的片刻，让我们短暂体会了聋哑人的世界。而这个世界上很难有真的感同身受。
工整且无趣，奥斯卡最佳就这小清新…… 最多3⭐。扣1⭐因品不配名，再扣1⭐为强行zzzq的奥斯卡道德奖。 除了颜值以外哪里🈶超越原片《贝利叶一家》啊？？？？尊重残疾人的残疾问题还需要拍电影来教么？网络让人退化至此？
电影是造梦的艺术。这当然是一部极度提纯了的电影，但父女情，母女情，兄妹情，友情，爱情，师生情，都在极小的篇幅里做到了真挚，动人。湛蓝的海水，绿色森林中的小径，满天繁星的夜空，渔港小镇，包括去伯克利面试路上的一朵野花，这电影的一切都显得很美。因为有这样的电影，我们才会说，我爱电影。当然也要说很吃女主的颜值。还有两个亮点我觉得是伯克利面试的那首歌和学校演奏时突然的消音，真的真的太棒了！！真善美的普世价值和对聋哑人人文关怀，我还年轻，热泪盈眶。
"I've never done anything without my family before."
陆海之间的对比。陆是庙堂之高，海是江湖之远；陆是血色人间，海是闲云野鹤；陆禁锢人生，海滋养万物；陆是流放，海是接纳；陆是虚无的探求，海是真实的厚重。“在朝廷他是罪人，在我这他是客人”，“如果不能按照所学的生活，那就按自己的本性来生活。”陆与海的博弈中，仍有一岛，仍有人如山。他等待岛屿成片，恰似山隆于海。
親情/成長/尋找&接納自我/與家人分離… 非常'工整'的電影，三幕劇結構飽滿，情緒張力也很足… 可以理解為何會被AppleTV+高價買下版權，小而美的片子，打到了普世共鳴點, 市場潛力大，又關照了特殊族群, '議題正確'… 演員&音樂很加分… （但就像很多影友吐槽的, 拿到了22年Oscar最佳影片, 總覺得有點'份量'不夠…
P.S.学会一个手语🤟，我爱你。
有才华的人，即使流放孤岛，也能衣食无忧、徒弟簇拥、妻儿绕膝，所以还是得多读书，读好书，会读书！
