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.
他从来知道这是一场政治审判
结尾的总结陈词一下子让我想起《辩护人》一下子戳中了泪框，而电影里展示的集会时与警察们的对持又难以不想到19年的香港。虽是七君子，但电影中心主要是彼此看不上的两位以及一位黑人身上，通过他们窜起庭审的同时窜起了游行，庭审的结尾同样也是游行的高潮，这种叙事很棒。自由从来都是争取来的！
惊艳的开场，法庭激烈的交锋，精彩的答辩，机关枪似的台词，思想性的火花四溅，Sorkin借古讽今，以左派视角交出这样一份优秀的作品，来作为对当今灯塔国政治生态和minzhu思想的批判反思。the whole world is watching，同时完美契合当下US大选的时间节点。全员演技无敌，小雀斑和波拉特的对手戏太赞，最后的法庭总结意料之中的燃。
革命与抗议者有像雷尼和汤姆的热血学生领袖，像杰瑞与艾比的宣扬反叛的嬉皮士，像戴维的稳中求健的社会学家，大家性格各异，但是他们聚集在全待会前，都是为了宣扬反战思想。表达大众意愿的人，应该永远得到尊敬。
众星云集飙戏飙得舒畅爆了，摄影和剪辑把这个老套的真实故事又玩出了一些新意，虽然最后还是主旋律了一把lol，片长限制每个角色只能在有限的时间里刻画所以都不太深刻，反映出的时代，台词我都很喜欢，总体上呈。
对美国的很多制度都不是很了解，通过这部电影又可以知晓一二，小雀斑看着不言不语的，最后开始念名字终于高光。另一位主演对汤姆·海登的评价没有错，是真正的爱国者。
铭记一句话，解释了美国官僚政府理应被民众认清的地位：
电影充分表达了现实的可悲，反战又如何，老话说的好“狗改不了吃屎”，表面光鲜正确的蒙太奇下，现实是如此地无力呢！
这是典型的好莱坞年度左翼电影。这几年几乎每年都有这样一部左翼政治理念的电影，例如聚焦、华盛顿邮报。拍摄手法都是纪实冷峻、都是大牌云集，明显不为了票房就冲着各类奖项的政治宣言，像是一个每年必做的功课。
【9.2分】等待了这么多年，终于官宣了，太不容易了，小兰看新一的短信时的表情真就是由内而外的开心和害羞，太开心了……
念名字的部分其实让我觉得稍微有点突然。剩下的就是完美，剧本太扎实了。
灯塔宣传片，压根就是个广播剧，明显不过的意识形态输出
也是上课看的，学生都不爱看。对于这段历史我也不了解，虽然有点感兴趣，有些点还是能看懂的，但是还是太晦涩了
本来就是场荒唐的审判，大篇幅的法庭戏一点也不枯燥，金句频出，很燃。对萨莎·拜伦·科恩刮目相看，Abbie这个人物和他很像，看似玩世不恭，却活得很清醒。
电影表现方式能激荡人心。而故事本身再一次证明百无一用是书生，情绪不稳，易被煽动
为集会的不自由，为司法的不健全，为体制的不完备，五颗星。
好像是我印象中唯一一部正面描述法官不公的影片，好像几乎所有的职业都可以黑，维度法官不可以~
电影拍的很不错，几场法庭戏十分精彩，如果2020年10月之前看，我会热血沸腾，但全程围观了2020年底那场丑陋的选举回头再看，只能感叹那种公正，民主，正义的社会土壤已经变质，美国再也不是人人向往的世界灯塔。

哇好棒的电影，这么繁杂的故事都被讲得明明白白~这个故事告诉我们司法系统、警察什么的如果没有完善体制，难道要指着执行人的道德约束吗？那怎么可能靠得住。这个可怕的一个人（没有基本人格人品的人）居然能当上大法官，成功让司法和行政搅和在一起，成为权力游戏的走狗，这难道不违宪？你们引以为傲的三权分立又在哪里呢。
