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.

所以究竟是想讲个啥？女性视角只是刻板充满莫名雌竞想象的虚假外壳，而如果还有任何女权色彩存在到结尾也已被这个完全崩坏的反转付之一炬
导演埃德加赖特把这部双女主B级惊悚片拍出了不一样的高级感。
有点虎头蛇尾，意犹未尽。镜头很棒，立意也好。失足少女啊，穿越时光的女性意识的觉醒，太美了。
3.5 借当代小镇青年的都市vintage怀旧乡愁的壳讲了一个男性视角下的女性题材故事，意思就是复古和女性主义都没有处理好，导致了前半段和后半段叙事的割裂，不论是60s的SOHO/男性凝视/女性互助/小镇和城市的互动都显得十分悬置，尤其是最后的和解和男性忏悔，不还是以男性气质去形容女性吗……不过伦敦处处有鬼魂还是很有意思
一部女性角色塑造很problematic的普通心理恐怖片，不过大家还是对白人男性导演有太多幻想了，像我一样没有任何期待就好（。）
前半段想说还挺逗比的，后半段属实给吓到了😱🤪
以恐怖题材电影成名的导演拍了一部小妞电影，上一次我看到还是《见鬼》导演之一彭顺拍的《宅女侦探桂香》。我不知道这文本是埃德加赖特主导还是另一位编剧主导，但我相信如果把两位女主角的结局换一下叙述顺序，至少还可以再加一星。丁正勋的摄影手法和欧美电影工业体系还是融合得来的，也很大程度上保证了影片的观赏性，不过前提是不要和他和朴赞郁合作的《老男孩》《亲切的金子》《斯托克》比较
这片看完我都要疯了。女主应该是有Schizophrenia，至于她怎么看到的60年代Sandie的故事幻象的，并没有交代清楚。也许这片子想要表达的是London是个复杂环境，来到这里不要迷失自己。最后，好想把Ellie房间外面一闪一闪的红蓝灯牌拆掉，天天这么闪怎么睡得好。
从主题（inspiration、mental illness与spirituality、historical burden的缠杂关系）到声画（赖特的强项）、角色都很精彩，尤其前一个小时。但情节上又是“开头结尾有了画面，发展部分没想清楚于是硬来”，vision的过度反真实处理导致观众中途抽离，是这种没想清楚的症状之一。当然，这种硬来与“uncanny导致抽离”也是1970年代恐怖电影的特征之一，或许可以当作赖特致敬的表现吧——至少比温子仁的手法高超多了。总之，2020年拍出这个水平，值得推荐。
我以爲是恐怖片 好吧！是下海之前要想清楚的片！
少了一些天马行空，多了一些视觉奇观，最后也没整明白是女权还是讽刺女权。
看前1/3的时候还想说不愧是我最喜欢的导演之一，能把这么一个我超级不感兴趣的题材和故事加上演员阵容都拍到起鸡皮疙瘩，然后……也就激动了这么一小会罢了……如果不谈类型片的情怀，在我看来，导演这回确实暴露出了他在核心内容表达上的乏善可陈。过去几部核心主要是友情，爱情，都还挺小而美，简单真挚能打动人。这次想讲性剥削，是真的讲的有点太浅太俗套了。可能这种复古悬疑惊悚类型片影迷会对他的技法和致敬感到激动吧？可以理解，就像很多人看动作片也不像我那么容易给好评一样。开始本来还觉得导演这次想要返璞归真，不那么炫技了，想好好讲故事。然而到高潮部分发现他本质上，还是在靠技法支撑戏剧张力。这就很挑人，一旦你的技法并没让观众感到惊喜，空洞的中心就很让人乏味了……不过应该也算一次尝试吧，拍了他很想拍的题材
估计Edgar Wright的巅峰就是《僵尸肖恩》了，离开Simon Pegg后剧本水平一路下滑。其实拍完Baby Driver，他就应该转拍大厂行活，视听剪辑上的功夫还是秒灭James Gunn之类的。作为重度007粉丝，Edgar Wright再次在片中反复致敬，今年《无暇赴死》最后没选他执导，真是双方共同的遗憾。
超喜欢超好看！太对我味口了！画面，音乐，美术设计太舒服了，摄影和调度都很妙！演员都好美好可爱啊！情节还有反转，中途有问号，但是转到最后是我喜欢的！爱了爱了！
对于60年代复刻，于视听而言皆是盛宴。双女主和镜像的运用很厉害，跳舞那里还能实现人物互换，非常惊艳。但中后期走向诡异，变得吵闹无聊，结尾更让人无语。

女主的确一比就下去了
恐男电影，剧本其实也就是九号秘事水平，视听语言是真不错。不过说实话，这部也太不埃德加赖特了，完全没了拍喜剧时候那些独特的视觉风格，好莱坞的制片模式对赖特来说是毒药啊...
画面四星，但故事就三星半，也可能是我没看懂。。。一开始以为安雅是女主的分身结果不是，然后我又以为是她妈，也不对，看到结局的时候才想起安雅第一次报地址的时候已经说明了身份了。。。（但是还是没太get这个故事要说个啥。。。）PS女主和安雅仔细看真的有点像！神奇。另黑人小哥演的好做作。。。
