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.
庞大的叙事题材, 独特的演绎形式. 是个很难的大课题. 3个小时的片长, 看出已经有了很多取舍, 但还可以狠心地再删减. 不过,保持现在这个样子,保持导演最想要的成品, 我认为是最好的状态. 片子和人一样, 不需要完美, 要的是生动有趣独一份儿. 力荐给所有人观看, 不可错过的华语电影.
好的部分，得益于时间的充裕与去掉尾灯魔改部分的优势，每个角色人物形象都有所精进。闪电侠的成长看得我几乎落泪，前一刻也许还是初上战场的小年轻，下一刻面对世界的崩塌可以忍住泪花踏上光路。
好家伙给我看困了，噱头比真实意义大，为什么四个小时因为有两个小时是慢镜头拉长的
非常惊奇和惊喜的观影体验，假作真时真亦假，一时道不清哪儿更阳间哪儿更阴间。建国以后不许有妖怪，那就是阴阳同界吧。想感慨这是一部当代中国人了解自己身世必看的电影，但我算个球哦说这种话，我不过是一个面对不了旧事历历重演的现实而躲进电影院的懦弱国人罢了，却反被电影安慰“各人有自己的密电码”。@戀愛·電影館
扎克施耐德的正义联盟完全没有问题，铺垫英雄们的背景，集结英雄，再埋下DCEU的后续伏笔，扎导完成得非常完美。导剪版的整体结构和院线版并无差异，但细节差距巨大，院线版的人物塑造可以用一塌糊涂来形容，人物动机也没有交代，全员工具人。而这些，在导剪版全部得以较正，每个人物都有了完整的弧光，每个人都有自己的行事动机，感情饱满，这才是真正的正义联盟！感谢所有为扎剪版努力过的人们。 10/10
更像章节剧，或“完整粗剪版”，未经修饰提炼的超长呈现，而非《守望》《超蝙》式美学独特且统一的“导剪作品”。可能是实在关注太久、期待太高、解析预测视频看得太多的原因，成品没带来太大惊艳和满足。每个角色的塑造都丰满合理了，但整体的情绪流断断续续。
2021年的第一部真正意义上的“院线电影”，虽不在影院，但胜似影院。别说四小时，看一天我都意犹未尽。敬所有推动这部正义导剪的同志们！
扎导剪辑版虽说在时长上有点无法控制，但在完整性与完成度上是几乎接近于完美的超级英雄电影，看得出每个角色的塑造都是经过精雕细琢的，每个人物的情感变化都无比顺畅，每个故事都完整无缺。与此相比，特效上的不足却显得不那么重要了。另外再说到画面与画幅的话，扎导滤镜不用说有多么受人喜爱了，4:3画幅更是锦上添花，所以“此生遗憾”便是不可能在IMAX影院看到这部片子了。
2021.3.18一天，豆瓣评分从8.8涨到了9.0，粉丝们过年了。
影影綽綽，拿民俗文化做皮，以私人記憶為軸，雲霧環繞間，溫和卻又銳利地，勾勒出活在口傳和記憶中的近代中國史，和屬於導演自身的生涯自畫像。從開場一直shock到結尾，數次懷淚，卻又總落不下來，真的又好又有趣，就蠻難想象這樣的作品除了滿分還能打幾分，真的值得被所有人看見。
和施耐德之前的DC电影一样，纯粉丝向，暗黑向，但整体是真的一般。
活色生香，但太过于间离了，难说是my thing。当晚正好没吃晚饭，某些段落看的我感同身受，回家狂炫碳水。
4小时剧情倒是非常饱满，感觉还是太长了，虽然也还算精彩咋感觉看完都没有再想去看第二遍呢
基本满足预期，甩尾灯正联几条街，但观感也确实就比复联2强一点点吧，对闪电侠和钢骨的开发是有惊喜的，剧情顺了，战斗更像集体了，深度和设计其实还是老样子吧，最喜欢结尾那段梦魇，可惜不会有后续，之前宣传的那些新人物太酱油
但问题仍然是施耐德自己以及这电影本身的内容。不是所有素材都能用作电影成片，之所以电影一般只有两个小时，是因为精简，因为感情浓缩，而不是拖沓，不是随意滥用慢镜头，怕浪费素材而随便加货。
七匹狼越看越像七龙珠里面的短笛？真的是原创吗？海王翻了两个小时的白眼。闪电侠把自己跑成了粒子对撞机。郑凯从头到尾穿个白大褂混了了一整部科幻片
《痴》是在讲他人，《椒麻堂会》讲的是自己的祖辈，是在写一种影像家史。是在有限的空间里，无限的想象力，重生到毁灭，两条叙事线的自然切换，人生如戏，舞台依旧。
从《痴》《姑奶奶》到《椒麻堂会》，一路证明，邱炯炯是天才。
# 25 POFF# 三个小时借小人物的命运客观真实的铺陈了中国近代史的变迁过程，能令人回想起曾在戛纳获得金棕榈的华语影片，但舞美视听都有所创新，更加具备新时代的耳目一新感，不失为近年华语影片承上启下的佳作，也为华语电影能够再度斩获欧洲三大最高奖的愿景增加了些许希冀
—— 談不上失望, 但四年的期待未能盡如人意. 「Evil does not sleep. It waits.」「We live in a society, where honor is a distant memory, isn't that right?」「FOR AUTUMN」
