Green Wing and Free Agents star Stephen Mangan is to play the lead role in BBC4's adaptation of the late Douglas Adams Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.
Mangan will be joined by Darren Boyd as his sidekick Richard MacDuff and Cold Feet and Friends actor Helen Baxendale, as MacDuff's girlfriend Susan.
Adapted by the Bafta-winning writer Howard Overman – who is also behind Misfits, Vexed and Merlin – Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency follows the exploits of Adams's chaotic character as he uses his unusual methods to solve crimes.
Mangan said: "I've been a fan of Douglas Adams ever since the Hitchhiker's radio series which I used to record as a child and listen to over and over again in my bedroom. It's such a thrill to now be playing one of his brilliant characters.
"Dirk is a chaotic, anarchic force of nature with a totally unique take on the world. He is described as 'lazy, untidy, dismissive and unreliable'. I've absolutely no idea why they thought I'd be right for the role."
The Dirk Gently books have formed the basis of a play and a BBC Radio 4 series but have never before been filmed for TV.
Adams's agent, Ed Victor, said: "For all the years I represented the late, great Douglas Adams, the most substantial frustration for both of us was that we couldn't get films made either of Hitchhiker or Dirk.
"Douglas once said, memorably, that 'getting a film made in Hollywood was like trying to cook a steak by having a bunch of people come into the room and breathe on it'. Well, we did eventually get a film made in Hollywood of Hitchhiker and, tragically, Douglas didn't live to see it. Nor will he see this adaptation of Dirk – but it's worth bearing in mind that Douglas always thought Dirk would make a better film than Hitchhiker and I feel sure that this new TV drama with a terrific script by Howard Overman will prove his point."
Shooting begins this week in Bristol on the 60-minute drama, which is being made by ITV Studios in association with the Welded Tandem Picture Company.
The Dirk Gently production is to be directed by Damon Thomas – who also directed BBC4 drama The First Men in the Moon – and will air early next year.
从一开始拒绝“妓女”的标签，到接收它，并为女性及“妓女”群体平权，我觉得导演或者编剧想通过这部作品表达的思想方向是对的，我们看得到她的善良，仁慈，但是这一路走过来的成就并没有凸显甘古拜的个人价值。整体来说，她也是依附于“大哥”的社会地位来创造了自己的新天地吧。或许，可以更“独立”一点
钢铁意志钢铁汉，一群猛虎钢七连！向中国人民志愿军致敬！
比上一部好一点，但坐在我旁边的男同事说，履带车开到山顶太不真实了，回来想想还真的是
“不要用笼子困住自由的飞鸟。我们心中有火焰，应如玫瑰般绽放。”
题材虽好，但是从电影的角度，剧情整体过于“大女主爽片”的套路了
因为红灯区的存在，彩色才会更纯洁
印度喜欢这种长叙事150分钟打底，看一场电影比较实惠
1. 真人叫Ganga Jagjivandas，印度黑手党大姐大。2. 電影中那個對手區長，到底是不是男人演的？3. 女主演一張巴掌小臉，漂亮～
虽然剧情上有诸多硬伤，这位女演员的演绎也太过霸总了一些，但桑杰导演还是保证了观众视听上的享受，最后花车游街一幕也算颇为动人。勉强三星半。
她不见得有多么远大的目的或逻辑严谨的说辞，但她为保护的群体做出了正面的贡献，这就是真实的力量吧。
女主角金手指大开一路过关斩将，最后和首长提议麦阴合法，我一口气差点没上来😅

比起《望乡》那种通过妓女遭遇批判社会的现实主义电影，印度人的逻辑很奇葩。
5.离家十二年的女主打电话回家，她妈妈却如此冷漠？
感觉挺好看的，没那么多想法。花朵无论在什么场合它都是香的。印度的舞蹈真的是把所有关节都运用上了，婚礼上舞娘们坐在舞台上跳的那支舞蹈真的很好看。
前面大半部分都没什么感觉，直到最后连队报数时：第七穿插连应到一百五十七人，实到一人。有点绷不住了。
不如合一起直接整个四五个小时的电影得了 分上下部就没什么意思了嗷
七连应到一百五十七人 实到一人
影片三观让人严重不适，女主出生豪门因自由恋爱被卖到妓院，她在妓院遭受各种身心伤害，不去反思这个欢场所在，却自认是妓女受不到尊重才会受苦，到最后居然还想买淫合法体面，一个国家有妓女就意味着这个国家的女人是狗，这么简单的道理就不明白吗？不取缔这个欢场就会有源源不断的受害者，影片还一直让观众给妓女尊严，我给妓女尊严，谁给万万普通女人尊严？贩卖身体赚来的每一分钱都建立在血泪之上，女主不该用鲜花包装妓女这个群体，而且在她有钱有权时都没找卖她的男朋友报仇算账，只想着让妓女这个群体发光发亮，太恶心了。
看的时候在想如果是我我也能那么勇敢奋不顾身么，我也能像朱亚文抛下妻子女儿牺牲自己么？最后五万里说哥我想你的时候实在忍不住哭了，我也很想您啊
