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.
开头野外捡钱的一段神似《老无所依》。扮猪吃老虎的爽片，大白天的正面硬怼一挑12，哪怕兰博都得事先埋炸弹靠机关。话又说回来，老亨利这江湖老手了，深知不义之财来得索命，他不应该捡钱才对。一看就知道肯定不是网飞拍的，老亨利怎么可能死呢，如果效果好观众买单，肯定要整个续集的彩蛋才对。
西部片的一波三折，还是跌宕起伏的。
拍得不错，但对现在的西部片真心无感，莫名其妙毫无准则，人物上一秒牛x得一发致命下一秒被重伤的敌人人打得踉踉跄跄逃命，明明之前反应迅速能瞬间反杀，最后却一定得受个几枪很装逼的杀对手。
永远不要惹你大爷！西部爽片，不知为什么，很喜欢西部片对枪的感觉。
悠长的音乐，广阔的外景，舒缓的节奏，传统的西部片。
硬核，纯正，西部片该有的元素他都有了，不需要女性角色，更不需要黑人演员，就是这么纯粹，故事简单，场面火爆，摄影也是美到爆。
比利小子还要和别人拖沓地点球互射有来有回，之前的气势瞬间没有了
很多人把宏大叙事拍的格局拉胯，该片反之
他一袭白衣白裤从《巴斯特·斯克鲁格斯的歌谣》乘着歌声的翅膀飘到此地隐居，赔命为跃跃欲试的“生姜”演示了江湖玩命的“老姜”风范，树林里探头探脑的决斗舞步表演得惟妙惟肖。
绕了一圈还是回到原点
这片的迷之高分有点不理解，画面色调比较复古，有点西部片的样子，但剧情实在拉跨，比利小子成了比利老头子，修身养性了还教育下一代要成为温柔的绵羊，拜托老大，那是蛮荒西部啊，拼手速比狠劲的年代啊，那样教育下一代能活过十岁吗?枪战场面太低幼了，仅有的二场枪战就像童子军在露营，你可是西部传奇啊，虽然英雄迟暮也不至于过家家吧，完全没有表现出比利小子的凶悍与经验，本片这个农夫与蛇的故事也根本不可能发生啊。不知道导演想表达个啥，比利小子的顿悟?其儿子的成长?貌似啥都看不出来，这样拍西部片，这个类型真的就没必要再复辟了。
美国平民的持枪习惯是有历史依据的，电影不太行。
中国人这个和武侠片是一个意思。但是节奏太慢
只有属于西部的粗粝与狂野。
亨利的话把整部电影升华了一个层次
传统老套路，能看，且其他都很好，唯有最后枪战配不上先前营造的氛围和超高手的水平
就像是一场没有战术的比赛，以最简单直接的方式结束。
尽管粗粝感有了，但终究打斗过程过于简单而前面的铺垫有些冗长，其中的几条支线也和主线没啥必然关联，当然更重要的是，作为中国人，我们对西部世界并没有情亲感，很难为情怀再加一星了，
开篇像西部广袤风光的静美油画，陡转后变血暴枪战……从颜值推断：去世的孩子妈应该是超级大美女，间接证明老亨利年轻时有多么传奇。
从故事到画面，从对白到配乐，无比复古，无比传统，在这个科恩兄弟和昆汀用各种现代手法让西部片不那么西部的时代，在被政治正确绑架的好莱坞剧本陷入低能死循环的时代，《老亨利》让人重新回到约翰韦恩和伊斯特伍德纵横好莱坞时那个传奇的西部岁月
