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.
居然头一次get到窦骁的帅点 / 不得不说 这无限循环的拍法可太省钱了
影片的前一个小时节奏把握得比较差，窦骁和张颂文的表演和台词在这种节奏下非常容易让人出戏，直到后面二人组出场，节奏才慢慢步入正轨。
花里胡哨的剪辑、故弄玄虚的讲述方式、随意的慢镜头，能拯救一部故事无新意、满身bug、假装很装逼的电影吗？答案是：不能。
其实还行，我以为是要拿小朋友做文章的，没想到后面警察来了，谁报警了吗？
还有最后周深的那首电音迷幻曲风的片尾曲。
2.0 / 几乎每一帧都看出了“我想与众不同我想技惊四座”的野心，就是真的很无趣。里面的黑色幽默也很无趣。一些青年导演真的不必“为了做点什么而做点什么”。
也是想用叙事手段来讲电影的，但是真的没有那种灵活机巧的感觉，非常简单不烧脑，就是讲一个小故事，确实没啥意思。
小惊喜，喜剧搭配悬疑还带着点惊悚的杂糅片，没什么大bug，整体尚能及格。
每年都有很多这种悬疑罪案国产片，但这么多年下来也都还是作坊水平，无趣无聊
摄影美术不错，就这剧情太单薄了，剪辑有点乱。
配乐和转场流畅 整体还可以 但还是有点耍小聪明 并不算太高明 算是把悬疑片常用的反转和犯罪片惯用的人性流都一股脑用上了
封闭空间和多线叙事，技术和文本不行，电影就容易垮。前者还不错，摄影配乐美术都出彩，不过剧本上逻辑漏洞太多，很多推动设置的刻意和生硬，想拍出层层递进、层层反转的感觉，起码剧本上得逻辑自洽，这点是非常可惜的。而且很多戏份都花在人物视角上的重复，不如多一些人物背景让故事更饱满，总体上还是缺点多于优点，想法领先手法。
3.5星，拼图式观影，第一次看到这种结构（果然是我观影量太少），很妙。另外窦骁在结尾怒吼的表情真的很山田孝之。
三星半。可能多数人希望的结局，是在警察冲入房间，把小马堵个正着时结束吧，或许这种所谓的开放结局会更让人钟于打高分，不过喜欢HE的我，还是愿意为好人至少没有恶报的结尾，多打半星。
没有铺垫，而是一层一层反向加戏，全靠编剧与观众的信息差，犹如开了金手指，一个个人物和剧情合理地加进来，尤其是结尾快递员的黑化，虽然对应了前面广播里的“一对新婚夫妇被快递员杀”的事实，但中间的人物形象是割裂的，黑化的很没铺垫，故事是可以，但金手指般的上帝视角还是一般般，而且范伟的表演在这完全就是小人物的作态，有点套路化了
分数这么低？这还不好看吗各位？？窦骁演的太精彩了！
窗外是“阳光”，被血色笼罩。屋里是罪恶，不请自来又像如约而至。罪恶之间的博弈早已拍的一清二楚，一定要最后揭晓。
影片的前一个小时节奏把握得比较差，窦骁和张颂文的表演和台词在这种节奏下非常容易让人出戏，直到后面二人组出场，节奏才慢慢步入正轨。
这个故事有点像睡前故事，中规中矩。
（还行吧，反转挺多的，猜不透。剧情不算很严谨，人物动因多少有点勉强。叙事不是线性的，不断地切换视角再来一遍。）
