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.
男一很令人讨厌，男二相比稍好一点，女主很强大
本来看了卡司（主要是 Jodie Comer）和题材（中世纪 me too）就觉得只要不糊就谢天谢地了，结果居然这么完美。三段式 POV 式叙事把控得丝毫不无聊，刻意强调的不同视角把情绪与诉求表达得恰到好处，尤其是前两段的男性视角和第三段稍有些慢热的女性视角相辅相成自然地带入让人咬牙切齿又拍案叫绝。更何况中世纪末期神权重压下马上要喘息的人性时代的各个仪式、道具和伪善都表现得非常到位。pandemic 来首次回归 AMC 这万年老粉的陈年 reward 换的观影体验太值了。
最有意思的应该是那些重复段落，因此这并不是简单的POV转换
剧本很扎实，不同角度讲一个故事如同现场听他们讲述很有代入感，最后的决斗女人为了尊严，男人为了面子。
中世紀的鋼鉄直男和有女權意識的妻子，在受投機取巧、更會經營的對手、拉偏架的領主欺凌后，向瘋批國王、虚伪的宗教投訴無門，以性命相摶，討回公道的故事。
一边看一边想天呐让这两个男的按顺序都死了吧，果然真的都死了，令人满意。
他的版本和她的版本。哇1386年的事情，放在现在依然不违和：）））））
总归有种大费周章烹小鲜的感觉，这故事有必要花这么长时间讲三遍吗？雷导这是在过中世纪瘾吗，最后的决斗戏确实精彩。
【7】不知道是不是被真实事件束缚住了手脚，改编得缩手缩脚，最后呈现出相当陈旧的文本。称不上是《罗生门》的故事，因为多视角的不同之处几乎是微乎其微，只能说是相互补充，让人质疑是否有POV多视角的必要。至于女性主义的回溯及对ME TOO的观照云云，对于30年前就拍出《末路狂花》的老雷而言，不值得为人称道。
三个男人都散发刺鼻的有毒气息：让、雅克、皮埃尔。最好的生活是死了老公后的庄园主生活。结尾镜头在我脑中和Pieces of a woman的结尾镜头神奇地重叠了。绿草，果树，女人。女人甩脱暴力男之后的生活就是野火烧不尽春风吹又生。
借两个骑士之间的决斗，讲述了一个女人与世界的决斗
光影质感超级好，巴里林登成为一个极致之后，这两年拍的中世纪逐渐走向了另一种影像风格的极致。和The Green Knight 同样是非常美的中世纪电影。
又一部历史-女性电影佳作。三个真相角度，有意思的是当中的细微区别。男人之间的较量，女性成为时代受害者。很难想象另外一个结局是多么不堪。★★★★/8.3
男人的尊严真tm珍贵啊，大猪蹄子，一堆大猪蹄子……

雷公已经成仙了，从《出埃及记》开始变得超然世外，用抽离犹疑的眼光审视他镜头下的每一个人物。《最后的决斗》看似回归处女作《决斗》的热血，实则满篇的”人间不值得“——老公觉得我拼了命替你出头，你居然担心会陪我一起死？强奸犯觉得我平白被这匹夫侮辱，想给他戴顶绿帽想不到把自己弄到身死名灭。老婆觉得我被人侵犯你居然担心的只是自己的名誉？搞得观众不知道该同情谁，悬疑气氛随着决斗结果揭晓之后也不知该悲该喜，难怪不卖座。可是懂行的观众能从里面享受到多少乐趣啊，中世纪的服饰、语言、食俗、礼俗、猎俗、性俗……满满当当全是干货，最牛的则是忠实还原了“let the justic win”的中世纪决斗，那本来就是种神判法啊。动作场面从马战打到步战，从长兵打到短兵，不再玩那些漂浮飞溅的花样，力度与巧妙兼备，精彩无限。
故事比想象的简单，但最后决斗戏拍得太好了啊我的天。科莫妹子绝了
A rape is a rape is a rape
女权主义者的控诉，女人什么时候才能站起来？
以为是罗生门，却又用字幕给你强调哪些是真相，显得少了点胆量，走的稳健路线。三个视角重复用的镜头太多了，有时候看的有点不耐烦，会短暂怀疑最后一个视角的必要性，当然最后揭示故事的主要意义是展现女性的视角，表现女性受的压迫和不公的，这就跟前面的结构有点拧巴。不过最后的决斗场景拍的太牛了，手心攥紧了看的，这才有"大导风范"。不过话说回来，这部分紧张感有多少是跟主旨的女性视角相关的呢？
