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.
导演也用独有的角度与镜头语言，台词塑造了无聊又普通的中年大人的世界。
压抑冷漠已经无法再爱的男主的人生最初底色竟也是纯情少男少女的戏码，那时他拥有两情相悦的爱人，拥有几个好朋友，工作还不是那么一成不变令人窒息。生活从来不会因为两人合拍，就让他们变得更顺风顺水战无不胜。生活残酷的地方在于，它远比两个人的相处要深远复杂得多。(时间倒退到与初恋女友第一次亲密之时，那份腼腆让人心动
被我归为成人痛片。个人没太多共鸣，非要说的话个人是过于坚持自我的那一方。其实都是被身边的人、环境、文化等等在影响着，谁能说自己是一个人成长。学习客观看待自己，不要让别人、尤其是不了解你的人定义你。
社畜落泪，太多场景能共情了。
站在“现在”的视角，回忆确实是在倒叙，就很妙，用正叙重点就变成了一个人的一生，少了无力感。片尾曲结束后字幕删除了无法成为，再也没有重新打上什么，又是点睛之笔，一下明白了创作者的用意。可惜我们终将会成为大人，其实我们都无法成为大人
普通，也是拼尽全力才得来的。大多数人，本来也不会是金字塔尖上的人啊。而有趣，哈，这就更是一个很难衡量的指标了吧。
越到后面看的越上头，（东出昌大还能一直活跃荧幕算是日本陈赫了吧？
看的真他妈难受，明明都很不想看了，还继续往下看，就像嘴上干枯的皮，越撕越痛，越痛越撕。
森山未来从20演到50没有违和感，东出昌大就差远了。也就破处的那个床戏有点劲，残酷不足。看到最爱的前女友结婚，真就会像死之前回光返照一样过电影吧。倒叙也很普通好哇。中国元素：做援交的女朋友的客户是中国人，她还会说些中文。
回忆总是闪着光的，当不经意间的时间流逝得超乎想象的时候，那一个按下暂停的能让我们回头喘口气并且随着记忆翻滚的瞬间，依旧还是会将我们这些“无法成为大人的”的大人泪流满面。
只有东亚才会拍的故事：倒叙人生发现自己成为了以前最讨厌的大人，稀松平常的往事变成了照亮麻木人生的光。看似一无所有的时候其实拥有全世界，实现了世俗意义上的成功后惊觉现在才是彻底的孑然一身。

過往遇到的人成為現在的你。
《薄荷糖》的叙事手法应用到个人爱情生活一样适用，我们都很普通，却都不想成为普通的人，我们都活成自己讨厌的人，看完最后片名的时候，你会觉得电影只是把丧气和苦闷去呈现，但最后留了一句话，我们都已是大人了，要怎么走我们要自己说的算啊！
曾经，我也想变成特别的那个人，但是在时光流转中，我变成了那个芸芸众生中，忘记了自己到底想要什么的，迷茫的普通人。
除了片尾一段回到即刻的当下之外完全采用倒叙的方式，让这部片子那么的私人而真实。最后佐藤在夜幕中狂奔着闪过的每一幕，无论是片段抑或是相片，结合着全片在之前所叙述的种种，让人仿佛真的重温了他这一路，与标题背向而驰成长为“普通的大人”的路程。
片尾曲弹出来的时刻，我在做什么？
能够感到森导演作为一个年轻的新生代导演，非常的谦虚。
6.5吧 颓废的散文诗 倒叙的手法 初恋看的很唏嘘 青涩美好但终究逝去了
51/ 一直知道有一天会承认自己也变成了无聊普通的大人 但希望那天来的晚一些 并在那之前与单纯个人意志有关的欲望更多一些 追求自由的勇气也更多一些
