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.
演的真好，好多地方笑死。最喜欢藏标签那个镜头，Emma Thompson太可爱了。
I’m so glad her first orgasm is with herself!
饮性欲之鸩，解孤独之渴。剧本写的有波兰斯基电影那调调，女主角色设计上无懈可击，对比之下其实男主角色的背景设计的略显符号化，正如片中所说像个性圣人。一个有意思的点：性满足是会让人觉得可以所向披靡。享受愉悦是很美妙的事情，性愉悦是上帝赐予每个普通人珍贵的礼物。但既然是欲望，私以为就和其他欲望没有太大区别，欲望是个深渊啊……
评论区挺有意思的，甚至能看出男女来，虽然不能一概而论，但的确很大一部分男性关注的可能是性工作者，欲望本身，于是这部电影的大量对话和女主经常东拉西扯甚至转到现实很不符合预期。女性观众能共情的就多很多，这恰恰很契合这部电影的主题，起码我作为一个女人，个人觉得这部电影的重点不是性工作者的性别优势，不是性欲本身，而是女性的生理心理满足。她絮絮叨叨，在性这件事上唯唯诺诺，战战兢兢。leo通过对话引导和床上运动让一个大半辈子不知性欲为何物的女性得到快乐并渐渐了解自己。南希最后说，她自信了，谢谢leo，这事真的说复杂跟天书一样，说简单就是做踏实了呗，甚至最后她的满足不在于生理运动，只在于看
编剧怎么这么会写。老妇丧偶后找鸭，希望达成人生中最棒的一次性体验。鸭鸭帅气、性感、温柔、深情、善解人意，老妇忍不住多点了几次服务。两个人除了协作满足老妇的愿望外，更多的是一种心理的疗愈。老妇不仅实现了自己冒险的目的，而且直面了自己的欲望，不再遮遮掩掩，也不再害羞。与此同时，鸭鸭也接受了自己，坦诚面对亲人的态度，不再为自己的职业羞愧。四次会面，循序渐进，在一切都变得完美之后，影片结束。没有多余的设计，只有精妙的台词。艾玛·汤普森又突破了自己。配乐非常好听，轻快又青春。
塑造出完美的“性幻想”，以此为切入口探讨我们身上的束缚、本能、救赎欲、控制欲，所有一切我们认为可以通过外在的某物实现的人生满足心魔其实都在于自我接纳的困扰。电影以猎奇和欲望引入，最后还是归于学院派般的存在主义讨论倾向，枝桠工整之余少了点意外。
充分交流前提下的性治疗，一种觉醒及寻求自我的方式，认真又不乏幽默，性感又不失体面。
Inspiring！非常好，细腻又有趣，剧本和表演都相当不错，温柔而有力量。有勇气把女性的欲望和自我矛盾拍得这么真实生动，向艾玛汤普森致敬！Ladies, go get yourself a proper orgasm!
片名拗口扣一星，要我说就叫《善解人衣》吧。
非常喜欢前两次会面，女性非常需要解放被禁锢的欲望，放下对快乐的羞耻感和对自身的不自信。后两次的说教感略重。
“Good luck to you.”两人的聊天竟然没有快进 不用拉窗帘吗 地毯不脏吗（关注点错
以性做为载体，并且全部内景以及依靠大量对白的依托，这都不是作为导演敢于轻易尝试的东西。但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》做到了。四段式的结构干净利落，简洁但是精致，虽然冲突来得有一些过于突然，但是通过彰显功力的对白呈现出了自我认同、原生家庭、女性地位等等我们当下几乎所有人都正在遭遇的问题。虽然电影的首要任务永远不是对问题做出解答，但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》却再一次以一种浪漫并且不失哲学的方式提供我们：治愈是我们每个人终其一生的命题。
不新鲜，但也挺好看。能帮助别人找回自信自爱的不是职业，是做得好的那些人（哪怕是话术营造的幻觉，有真心投入也确实会不一样）。同意热评，这样可口的鸭可以多来几打hh
太棒了，我希望我认识的所有女性朋友们都看这部电影
这部应该是今年以来最喜欢的电影了！说是女性觉醒有点点局限 其实更像是两个陌生人之间的phase link且互相治愈的过程。男主真的好可爱 声音也令人安静 又很耐心地等待与倾听 去引导去缓释去深入都是水到渠成 更重要的是他让女主发现直面自身的欲望是不该成为羞耻的事情 去欣赏自己取悦自己也没有错。女主恰好是母亲 因而以母亲身份的共情能够让男主直面自己与他母亲和家人的关系 认可自己的能力和职业。这种陌生人之间互相短暂令对方更完整地步入next stage真是我最喜欢的感情之一了！
线条好极了

3.5，很好笑，艾玛汤普森很棒。因为想要精简场景完全靠对话推动，故事难免有点刻意，有些地方也难以让人信服。男主也太可口了
好无聊…磨磨唧唧。老太太这叫一个絮絮叨叨…嘴碎的要命 就像唐僧一样。真的倒胃口。笑话也不好笑。还敢打喜剧的标。骗子。老太太的思想既落后又过时。不理解也看的要睡着了。真想给这个老太太一个大bi dou。搞不搞 搞不搞。
PS：男的真的各方面都很优秀啊 以为是绿色电影，没想到后面有大招。
