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.
“本来可以拍电视剧确拍成了电影”系列，信息量爆炸。血书请求两位男主人公二搭！！！
太喜欢这部电影的感觉！
谁不想要个温柔舅舅呢？
观感还可以，韩国人拍警察电影确实比较擅长，描绘人物、剖析社会内涵都还不错。
给本本加一星。看预告时候就觉得可能两条线哪条都讲不好，正片果然也是没讲好，写回忆录能意识流，想到哪儿写哪儿，电影剧本不能这么写啊，太散了整个故事。
打破对父亲的滤镜 那一刻男主十几年的包袱都好像放下了
我觉得还不错，那种自由的感觉，很令我着迷。可能在另一个平行世界我也是这样的生活吧。
很文艺的作品，里面金句频出。在没有父亲的成长中，舅舅外公很好的弥补了男性角色的空缺，让jr能有一个正常的人生，有希望的人生。“we are the desendant of the luck”
本该刺激的剧情被拍得如此不刺激。
寡淡松散，堆砌时代感和说教的表象符号，让整个故事完全找不到重心。小时候的演员选的太精灵了，反而不符合这个破败不堪的混杂家庭的感觉
乔治克鲁尼好多电影都是这样 没有明显的头尾 像是一本拿起来从哪里开始读都可以的书 还不错
我觉得还不错，那种自由的感觉，很令我着迷。可能在另一个平行世界我也是这样的生活吧。
治愈小品，大本的胡子才是本体吧，没有胡子的鞋拔子脸简直没眼看。。。
外国电影喜欢找爸，中国电影喜欢找妈。另外就是外国电影喜欢弑父，似乎找爸弑父是西方无论是神化还是传记（普通人故事）特别喜欢表达。这部虽平庸拖沓主题到也符合西式哲学。
主題其實挺好的，發揮空間明明也很大，可惜劇本太差，人物立場轉變得也太快了，動作戲也拍得爛，演員已經盡力了吧
总觉得剧情差点意思，马上要被撩拨起心劲的时候又下去了，但小崔的演技真的佳，和几个前辈合作起来一点没有接不住
温情脉脉的美国男孩成长生活，a silver light in the clouds。冲着大本看的这个电影。平淡温馨的电影，但不足以把人吸引进电影院。所以拍这种电影的意义在哪里呢，我感觉在美国可能是服务于家庭租赁市场的，也是锻炼电影创作者基本功的平台，另外这种电影也反映或者反向地潜移默化美国人的价值观：家庭，宗教，希望。我们的网大可以拍拍这类型的片子啊，先把平淡的故事讲有趣了，再去拍院线片；也可以让人从更平易近人的网大中收获一些价值观
阶级固化的社会，更好的精英教育或许可以改变一个人的命运，但无法改变这个人的阶层和阶层思维，原生家庭的身教往往是这顽固壁垒的一剂解药
要知道在中国古代，大家族如果要分家往往都是舅舅来执行分家仪式，万万没想到乔治克鲁尼一个美国人居然拍了部关于舅甥情谊的电影，最后舅舅还真买了辆车给外甥，也许这就是人类共通的感情？只可惜整部电影太过平淡，完全没有高潮点，所以只能给个三星了。
结局有点小儿科，总体节奏有点问题，打斗戏一般。演员演的都不错。
