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.
末世废土设定的公路科幻片，尤其在疫情期间看特别能relate. 一个机器人的出生和快速成长，学着像人一样生活，思考，承担责任。在这个世界里，人是危险、复杂、不可信任的，唯三可信任的是自己的狗勾和机器人。不过在残酷的环境里也有暖心的温情和浪漫，在旧金山终于能自由晒太阳，让蝴蝶飞到手上那段泪目。多希望Finch也能亲眼见一回金门大桥啊，听"suspension cables singing in the wind". P.S. 片头和片尾都出现了American Pie，用得不能更贴切。
挺喜欢这个简单又温情的故事，有些末世元素，但主要还是讲人与机器人传递的情感。苹果自制，挺好。
好久没看汤姆汉克斯的电影了，挺温馨的，就是比较担心他们遇到人后会怎么样。有些想做的事情还是马上去做吧，事情太多人生太短，说不定就没机会了。
观感舒适，缓而不燥。质感好细节足，讲好了一个末日不独存的故事。
蝴蝶飞舞 jeff胸口的开罐器
故事只有一人一狗一机器
只能说是对汤姆汉克斯的爱才能看得下去并打个4星。美术和摄影的确非常壮美，其余的，真的就太平淡，故事太四平八稳毫无冲突和惊喜，说是科幻奇幻不如说这是一部文艺童话电影。
末世风景公路家庭情感片。。。观感体验不错，结尾前稍作稍拖沓。高清画质下，摄影很美。人类的下场最终会怎样不太清楚，但正如那句话说的，其实地球不太需要我们保护，因为我们能毁灭的只是自己。
这每次世界末日都是主角和狗，那些cat person会不会觉得被冒犯到，从来没见跟猫子survive from the end of the world.. 而且这片子老让我想起Joey拍的那个Mac & Cheese, Finch & Jeff
电影的故事和手法一点都不新鲜，但汤姆·汉克斯的精湛表演和影片细腻的情感刻画让《芬奇》感人至深。
一个传承的独角戏，在末日与机器人的外衣下。你可以不甘可以不舍，最后还是要放手，想到以后对你无限担心，然而你还是要独自过出自己的人生。
这是一部套着科幻外壳的成长教育片。孤僻的技术老宅男芬奇和他制造的机器人杰夫宛如一对父子。芬奇教会了杰夫生存技能、做人的原则、关爱和照顾他人，还有“主观能动性”，在此过程中，也从杰夫身上重拾了信心和对他人的信任。影片对角色性格和心理的刻画细腻而巧妙。杰夫没有面部表情，对白以外，主要通过精心设计的肢体语言，向观众准确传达他的心理活动。例如，当他身穿那件滑稽的羽绒服，沉默地弓腰侧立时，你能强烈地感受到他的悲伤。
看到芬奇的造型，我马上着手试了试能不能把我的电脑音箱也改造成机器人
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？
非常不错的科幻公路电影，一人一狗一机器，狗狗演技很棒，机器人最终也变得像人懂得了爱，懂得了友谊，看着有他陪伴狗狗芬奇也就放心了。片尾曲好听
开头还挺末世朋克科幻的，越往后越冗长，不知所谓
好像最后还差那么一点点 一点点（加州果然宜居…
设定上虽然有些矛盾存在，但是这不是科幻片，是在讨论一种可能性下的人性，看似简单的故事，内涵却极其丰富。人类在消亡，机器人还是个新生儿，结尾杰夫和狗的背影走过金门大桥，但是他们真的准备好了吗。
一个宅男发明家芬奇发明了一个机器人杰夫。这个桥段多么似曾相识，仿佛天马博士发明了阿童木。发明机器人的初衷是将履行一项使命：在芬奇离开人世后，将由杰夫来照顾他唯一的寄托：他的狗狗。在这末日的背景下，偌大的世界好像只有一个人，一条狗，一个机器人，似乎看不到什么生机。杰夫学习的很快，他的思维方式，他的表达越来越像一个人。 仿佛是芬奇的孩子，他会大意会闯祸，会顽皮。大爷必须收起他的臭脾气，耐心的教导机器人。机器人越来越像一个人，他学会了开车，学会了修车，学会了逗狗狗。机器人越来越完善，芬奇的身体却越来越差，不知道能不能支撑到他们的希望之地金门大桥。黑暗的来临令人害怕和踹踹不安，但是黎明终会到来。 即便世界已经到了末日，只要你心中还有信仰，还有寄托，即便只是一个机器人依旧能传承你的希望。
刚刚看到世界恢复的希望，芬奇却挺不下去了。
