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.
其实有点无聊，机器人和狗狗还是可爱的，最可爱的是杜伊可惜就它没了
ps：看到一半了才认出来这大胡子是汤姆汉克斯😅脸盲没救了属于是😅
时隔多年，汉克斯老了，荒岛余生的排球变成了碎嘴自作主张的Ai机器人，唯一不变的是是那份孤独。
科幻末世感的<一条狗的使命>，苹果出品的好莱坞俗套老陈旧就不是俗套老陈旧了？
实在太老套了。可作为丹尼特的意向系统理论演示，但先假设机器像人，再感动于其人性，这种做法可谓 机械降humanity
芬奇或许并不是一部出色的末日电影，但是吸取了末日电影的精华，芬奇延续了人类秩序崩塌下仅存的人性光辉
移动版《You Will (not) Remain》。从absent开始的分离焦虑，印证之前倒也颇多波折。公路、惊悚、逃杀、幽默、温情元素雨露均沾，是打动人的故事。会想起看《夏娃的时间》和汤浅短片《造梦机器》的感觉。人类因为懦弱、害怕、孤独或者别的原因和其他生物，或者非生物，建立联系，从无到有的过程很动人。最后的落点整的芬奇和杰夫有些如父如子。但我会想，如果哪天Goodyear也“不在”了，杰夫会怎么办呢？
世界末日降临，余生屈指可数，汤姆大叔出来讲了一堆大道理，但前提均是保护地球环境与建立人际信任🌚
They made a robot to care lives. We made politics to kill.
人、机、狗之间的感情令人动容，越是在这个个体原子化&生活智能化的时代，就越容易被这种简单而紧密的关系，无条件的爱与信任所打动
故事愈简单，况味愈深。尤其是在今年看到，代入感是当年观看瓦力时所不能想象的。也是这部片子让我第一次去思考机器人与人类的关系，Finch教Jeff技能的时候，用了机器人三定律的模版，但内容更近似一个父亲教儿子如何谋生。我发觉对于我们的星球而言，机器人永远不能脱离人类的范畴，所谓机器人，无非是人类超越肉体生物性最远的一次尝试。机器人的属性，中文名的字面便可完全解释。机器人就是人类，他使用的是人类的逻辑和情感，他也就会因这样的逻辑和情感或繁荣或毁灭。所以，片中的Jeff和杜威之所以显得比人类更有人性，也是因为对于他们而言，环境对于他们的机体没构成毁灭性的挑战。如果有一天，地球变成机器人也不能运行的样子，他们之间为了生存也一样会冷酷无情。我们人类的历史就停在那一天，也是很好的结局。
独角戏，没有cast out感人，那个排球真的落泪了
一人一狗一AI，符合我對末日的想像。 2021.12.4 in.Tokyo
被感动的是机器人的人性，按一个人来写机器人，一不小心就容易强加于机器人人性，电影拿捏的挺好，智能和笨拙同时在杰夫身上。当狗狗也死去，杰夫看怎么办呀……
为啥豆瓣这么高分啊? 这不是荒岛余生 Cast Away的末世版本?一开始像fallout里的捡垃圾,还挺有末世感觉. 后面的剧情感觉很抽离,我宁愿跟球聊. young robotic我看来还不大行
-＂How do you know you can't trust those people?＂
世界末日，繁华大都市被黄沙淹没的景象令人触目惊心。一个老人、一只狗、一个逐渐比人还更具备人性的机器人，在这样令人绝望的环境中，如何建立起信任、默契。老人还是死了，他一手打造出来，延续了率真人性的机器人继续使命，陪伴照顾着狗。心里不免难过，当狗也死了以后，机器人该怎么办？
芬奇给杰夫的设定是帮助Goodyear，死前的愿望也是一样他们能友好相处。
后太阳耀斑爆发时代中产阶级老白男对昔日生活方式的坚守，大概是影片最大的温柔杀器，可惜对我完全无效。碰上这种大劫，中国人早忙着挖地洞种蘑菇去了吧，人家依然开着房车到处打劫超市影院小卖部，搜罗狗罐头只为供养家里那只狗爹。不就是这种生活方式把臭氧层捅成个“瑞士奶酪”的吗？全片毫无自省，真让人啼笑皆非。“信任”的主题最后落到了机器和狗身上，意思就是听话的东西比人可靠呗，说到底爱的还是自己。结局挺好的：没有这种人，地球照样转。ps.我对汉克斯的表演没意见。
明明Jeff没有任何表情，但我好像能读懂他所有的情绪，这个穿着派克大衣的机器人的可爱程度堪比WALL.E，不分伯仲
