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.
一碗香浓美味的鸡汤。
孕育一个新生命的意义可能也在于可以透过一个全新的视角去看待这个世界和生活吧。刚和圆律师在一起时我挣扎过一个问题很久，为什么他可以拥有那么轻松快乐的童年和少年，而我却时时希望自己从未出生？我成长过程中所有经历的痛苦和挣扎到底有何意义？近几年，特别是最近一年半，想通了许多。也许人生的意义仅仅在于体会，极致的痛苦和极致的快乐最终是殊途同归，都让人生更充盈饱满。也许别想有什么意义，活着，去感受，就对了。
反倒觉得采用了极为简单却奏效的写作方式，角色的声音不来自身体的器官，它来自灵魂的某处，再借助颠倒、置换的外观形象，使得视角生成了强烈的错位感，文本的普适性将Gardner与观众绑定在一起，这种宝贵的错位感足以为他们带来无数的静默时刻：点亮火花的不是秘密，而是在凝视落叶的时候——因此主题并非填鸭式的价值观输出，反而像是一种自省。
very spiritual very new age and im not surprised ：）good to be alive.
冷不防被摸了摸头。皮克斯，我的人生抛光器。
每一缕秋风，每一片落叶，每一段旋律，这才是生命的全部。
I'm gonna live every minute of it！通关2020，每个人都继续加油吧！
如今的《心灵奇旅》像一副在三岁小孩在美术馆墙上画的涂鸦。几个公众号发现了它，说这是件瑰宝，人们开始对着它端详、揣摩，抒发自己对人生和哲学的见解，再没有人敢提及它的粗糙和幼稚。
有梦想很燃，但生活在这个世界上的本身就是一件美好的事。
“生命的火花不是目标，而是对生活的热情。”2021年想安利给身边朋友的第一部片子，好好活着，享受当下的每一分钟。
中规中矩，没有达到我的预期（可能是因为我在豆瓣上看到评分这么高而让我有高预期）。故事没有什么新意，属于看开头就差不多能把结尾猜出来的那种。不过里面的特效还是不错的。
为啥看看风中的落叶就能找到自己的spark呢？事实证明我才是那一身黑的lost soul
生活的意义其实就是生活本身。人的一生对宇宙来说很渺小，但对于自己却无比重要。
Spark不是purpose，是感受生命赐予你的每一分钟
瞎逛的时候一时兴起看的，比想象中好，前面说人要有目标，不能平庸地活着，然后引申出生命意义的问题，最终答案是类似存在主义的说法，去体验存在本身就好，强调活在当下，这是一种颇为佛系的心态，在精英化的社会主流价值观下比较让人放松。如果生命中的痛苦和焦虑不能带来更深层的意义，的确容易产生精神危机，我相信人在一定程度上可以选择自己的生活，也必然在整体上获得微妙的平衡，但最终，生命这条河得在洪流中趟过才行。配乐不错，结尾强行给男主续命扣分，如果进入光芒接受命运，这故事就没得挑了，不想太挑剔，瑕不掩瑜了。
啊，在这艰难的一年年末有这样一部悄悄戳人泪腺，让人哭完还觉得治愈的片子，多难得啊，即使出了影院世界还是这么糟糕，但就是想把这碗鸡汤一饮而尽。推荐喜欢听爵士乐的观众，你会听到不亚于《爱乐之城》水平的银幕演出；推荐喜欢看特效的观众，有几个场景我想到了《星际穿越》的五维空间(这个可能有点牵强)；至于本来就喜欢《头脑特工队》《寻梦环游记》式设定的皮克斯爱好者，啊快去看呀！
【8.0】怎么说呢，有点失望吧，毕竟是我皮，要求还是放的很高的。其实剧作上体现的深度还是足够的，只是在影像执行力上没有什么令人惊艳的地方。表面上看上去是让你寻找生活中的火花这一个有点说教意味的主题，但是结尾当Joe实现梦想之后，才发现自己追求的到底是真正的热爱，还是一个单纯的目标。结尾还是一如既往的皮克斯，想把情绪流推到最高，可惜，前面和22的日常琐事不是很能打动我，有些推进和转折有点硬，最后看完心里总觉得空落落的，期待没有被满足的感觉。
如果有什么，值得保留 那仅仅是 窗帘为风所动。——魔头贝贝
用很淡的方式陈述一个很重的命题，符合大多数人去电影院的预期——「最好别让我想太多，这种分量还可以。」就像主角先前在理发店里，只跟托尼聊爵士乐而不谈人生那样。
自然而没有一字多余的台词，真实而没有一秒多余的桥段！心化了，真希望当年的1900能遇见你！
