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.
真实又温暖的一部片子，从头感动到尾。浓浓的潮汕味道，传统、团结，开头车子追尾的情节，就打到了我这个“外省”的。片中母亲勤劳坚韧，令人动容。不止潮汕，我认识的客家女性、他省女性亦如此。关于婚姻，从反对到包容，习俗虽不尽相同，终究敌不过强大的母爱。
另外，座头市是部好片子。
故事越简单，就越考验导演功力，无论文戏武戏，调度和设计都在很多院线大片的水准之上，很多的留白和写意也契合了东方武侠的韵味，那些故事不行演员来凑的创作者，那些动作不会就慢动作的创作者，那些声名远扬却烂片成堆的创作者，该好好来学习一下。
一部标准的动作电影，放在网大里就成了拔尖，可见观众被粗制滥造的国产网大荼毒成啥样了……动作戏用心了
讨一碗酒，讲一个公道。手起刀落，短小精悍。
原本只是一部及格且后半段多了不少会扣分的戏码，但是中间不少宛如将我的生活搬上大银幕，以及最后收尾那场让我不知不觉笑中落泪的戏，加上片尾彩蛋以手机拍摄的伪纪录片段落令我眼眶湿润，真的加了太多太多的分了，或许最真诚的出发才是最能够打动观众们的吧
初看潮语电影，稍稍尬住几分钟后渐入佳境。没有硬尬的剧情，表演可圈可点，很街头巷尾，看不出“演”的痕迹。演“妈妈”的素人演员演得真好，完全能hold住。
不是高高在上的伟大的母爱形象
好好看！很难得一个片男主角长的不好看，但是能看下去的，故事说的比较合理， 情节比较简单，但故事说的比较好，表达也很适合，画面镜头也很好看，动作设计有亮点，是当下这些年头十分难得的武侠片了，小成本，但却有点大片感，打光和后期都不错，摄影很好。有一些小缺点，比如开头瞎子在院子里睡了一觉，没有人发现他，丧礼那里有点像非洲的祭祀，救女主的时候，一刀反光那里反光亮了些，结局之前的女杀手的裤子有点像日本的袴（我不知道我们中国有没有这种裤子，但是往时的古装片基本没看到同样式的），总之这些小缺点基本可以忽略，优点是很明显的。在故事情节上，这是个关于侠士扫除黑恶势力的片子(｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡ 。我友人跟我说，男主角是当年新少林五祖里面李连杰的儿子，哇哦，长这么大了。海报做的太丑了，差点因为海报就不看这片
简单粗暴，干净利落。剧情虽然简单，但侠的意思，表达的很精准。片尾，意犹未尽啊！如果能多些细节和曲折，就更好了！PS：对谢苗印象还是小时候那样，没想到这么多年过去了，他演得挺好的。
不喜欢，好看度也一般。拍摄来说，剧情进展突兀。情节来说，男主及他妈发在豆瓣小组会是清一色的劝退劝分。理解各个地区都不爱找外地人的习俗，但歧视并丑化胖人，处处标榜封建是闹哪样？
可圈可点，还可以拍续集，谢苗怎么就发展成武打明星呢
差点被片名劝退系列，没想到成片这么自然坦荡。还是能看出制片粗糙的部分，但也正因此感受到了导演的大胆和选人慧眼：启用素人的风险并不在于专业素养的缺乏，而是人的秉性和阅历是否贴合情节。事实证明浸润过潮汕本土民俗和闭塞婚姻观环境的人，释放出来的情感和默契胜过一切所谓的演技教科书。作为一个从小成长于类似骑楼民居的岛民，拜神烧香流水席和祈福，还有片中母亲的人物形象，像极了以前每年寒假回老家，我娘人前亏我李草包，人后说我是李老师的样子。只有爱，会带来一地鸡毛的家，也能修复一地鸡毛的家，人性的卑微和美丽皆源于此。 P.S. 玩具船长的客语bgm是真好听又精准啊
最终场景切到杭州的时候，第一次觉得电影里的人离我这么近，好像就在我身边
很好很好的侠客电影，美术很好，场景很好，演员很好
不是我目中无人，我是真看不见。倒也谈不上“院线质量”，哦可能是现在院线质量跟这也差不多。
前半段节奏很好，让人特想去潮汕旅游，后半段垮了点，整体还不错，结尾伪自录多余
琴娘临死前称呼成乙为瘟神有些不妥，琴娘对成乙不只是感激救命之恩，还有爱，即便搭上性命也义无反顾，这不应该是一个生死之交的挚友应该的称呼。但是我还是看了两遍，今年难得的好片
风格化的人物小传，像一本摊开的武侠小说跃然眼前。短短70多分钟却构建起一个丰满的仗义之侠，内热外冷的形象有点酷。故事脉络清晰，情节没有水分，美术和制作上也远超网大的预期。眼瞎心不瞎，快意情仇，值得一看。
一个很不错的开始，但是仅仅是个开始。剧情简单，没什么可挖的地方，但是服化道以及武打设计都还不错，人物颜值也算在线。谢苗这么多年的电影就这个还算好看。其实我建议谢苗将这个做成一个系列电影，你这辈子吃这一个背景就足够了。这个切入点很好，往前是安史之乱中最惨烈的睢阳保卫战，张巡南霁云加上成乙三五个电影就有了；往后可以继续写捉刀人的故事，成乙是如何行侠仗义的也可以继续说，希望谢苗可以好好打磨这个背景，千万别浪费了……
