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.
有一种作品，看完之后让人久久不能平静，只是呆呆的愣在那里；一种伟大的力量注入灵魂。从各种方面来讲，观者被作品全面带领，进入一个更高的世界。这是一部伟大的作品，电影无比精彩，我看过的所有电影中最好的那样一种。不止电影，它所包含的内容太多了，没有一处是无用的。阶级；暴力；社会平等；马克思列宁；法律；良心；执法；种族……太多了。
血淋淋地展示了底层人民的生存状况。没有土地，住不起砖房，拿着微薄的收入小心翼翼地生活，却仍然不知道何时天降横祸，随时会被警察污蔑犯罪。警察明知犯罪者是谁，可在受贿后闭口不言，随便抓人顶罪，不分青红皂白妄图屈打成招。昏迷过去直接向眼睛撒辣椒粉，为了撤销指控数次威胁家属，大街上把孩子抢走。甚至把人打死后还要污蔑他逃狱，暗地里却把尸体扔在荒野外。触目惊心的画面竟然是根据真实改编，让人窒息。而好的是这不是近年来的案件，并且还能被改编成电影上映，敢于承认且揭露真相，是伟大的举动。
警察在监狱里虐待犯人看得挺难受的，真实度很高。音乐起得太多太没创意，这些印度片已经套路化了，这样的电影看过太多了，最后的神奇收尾也让我丝毫没有了爽感，大部分似曾相识的情节也逐渐将我的观影乐趣消耗殆尽。
4+ 很揪心也很燃，节奏有点慢。生命面前人人平等，种姓制度太可怕。
监狱里打人那段看着好揪心，就是律师好多镜头用慢动作➕配乐，就有一种英雄主义的感觉，很不喜欢
有阳光的地方就有黑暗，但敢于直面黑暗，就是勇气，就是干净又卫生...
剧情很虐心，一度我都想离席了，😂但是确实挺不错的，苏利耶的演技绝了，刚开始我都没认出来。故事情节流畅节奏快一点也不拖沓。
印度好看的电影里恒久的话题：种姓制度！每一出悲剧故事的的发生究其原因都离不开这四个字！所以一整套社会体系里的蛀虫滋生再普遍不过.....人权，低等人他们都不配拥有的；人性，高等人他们拥有的也不会很多...P.S现在的8.7分虚高，大概是因为大众们看印度电影的数量不够
在有些地方，这种律师的出现是会被人肉被网暴被诬陷被威逼利诱被跨省追捕被消失的吧…

鸡蛋终究会孵化，越过石头。
种姓制度不完全废，没啥希望。给低种姓的人学习的机会，都考上大学，他们自然不结婚不生孩子了
比较套路的印度电影，教育意义大于电影艺术。最大的亮点是几位男性受害者的表演，刑讯那一段绝了。
4+ 很揪心也很燃，节奏有点慢。生命面前人人平等，种姓制度太可怕。
印度再任由这些毫无社会责任心爱国主义精神的电影人将印度社会片面的黑暗面放大展露给国际上以图讨好西方社会拿奖，那他们的国际地位、经济发展、GDP是好不了了滑稽。。还有就是感觉印度教是真的牛逼，就这样绝大多数低种姓非人的地狱生活还能忍耐到那个程度。。
7/10
在上级冠冕堂皇要他同流遮羞时他说:
我是快进看的，故事确实很针砭时弊了，但是情节推进太慢，时长太长，实在很难坚持看下来
无论是什么时代 无论是什么统治制度 如果大多数人民都到了穷尽一切办法都难以活下去的地步 那便是天翻地覆 江山改易 所以 为什么一定要走到这一步呢
塑料般廉价的印度贫民电影。但，他们至少还可以游行示威，还有不畏权势不担心失去执照的死磕律师。律师全程面瘫减分。
