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.
想法十分不错，从克隆人类型中另辟蹊径，不再从争夺、替代、欺骗这些直接的主题中寻求新时代（姑且这么称呼）生命体的答案，而是让他们在人类因故离去之后，完成人类所未完成的任务或使命，很有点像前段时间的《芬奇》，代替人类守护家人（宠物）这样的设定，整部片子节奏舒缓，极其适合消磨午后时光，四颗星。
当科技和医学，成为我们畏惧死亡的正当替代品，建立在谎言上的所谓爱，还能是真实的吗？
涉及伦理纲常和人格侵犯，很多事情都那么模糊，最明朗坚定的是贯穿整篇是爱。克隆本是一个科幻的主题，却用温情的故事来讲述，用本体的视角去窥探，仿佛Jack不是克隆人，就是卡梅隆身体的延续、为卡梅隆完成他以后的人生。
克隆人真的是解决离别更好的办法吗？我想应该不是。当日你是穷人得选项。
我看见我生命中的往昔
大晚上看真的会看哭，克隆人的伦理一直在被讨论，这个电影的角度会让我再次审视家人
有点意思，最近关于死亡的主题越来越多，还都拍的不错
黑哥儿的演技真不是盖的！！！内心脆弱敏感易破防的人儿一定会在片尾潸然泪下，但是女主的这颜值...让我实在缺乏了与黑哥儿共情的能力……
😅在戏剧性和肥皂剧之间还是回归了肥皂剧……
老套的克隆设定，刻意设置的冲突，让这部电影看着非常拧巴，最重要的是这个所谓的爱与死亡的主题实在肤浅，尽管大部分世人都深陷于此——但其实这提醒了我一件事，那就是电影不是为了那些“成熟”的观众看的，而是为了更多没有看过和感受过的人拍摄。这正是艺术和人类的关系。
苹果未来产品线大赏。核心议题是亲情和爱情，设身处地，我们会怎么选择？可能不走到那一步永远不会知道答案。
7.8分，节奏很慢，画面很Apple，虽然很慢，但是现实/回忆/AR交替的画面不愿意错过任何一个画面。电影有1个地方很打动我，卡梅伦回到家里和几岁的儿子有一个成年人式的道别，他吃着毛豆，眼眶都是泪。而影片总让我有一个问题：如果我有绝症，我是否会告诉我的亲人/爱人？
中间有说到之前的病人.... 我突然想到，要是最后发现他老婆也是克隆人就好玩儿了...
诗意的闷片。“我”死后一个和“我”看起来一模一样且承载着“我”所有记忆的人代替“我”留在“我”爱的人身边，在生命尾声处“我”如何安排这一切接受这一切……如果把以上其中几个“我”换成“TA”，就是一个平平常常爱情片，但现在就是“高级”软科幻，科技就是人类自我中心的集大成体现。
科技是把双刃剑，它造福人类的同时，也在消解人类的唯一性。我，是可以替代的，那么他者也是可以替代的，换一个角度来说，还有什么是唯一的需要珍惜的？电影立意是很好，以爱之名去克隆一个自己来继续爱家人，然后孤独地痛苦地离开。也许我或者你都愿意活在这样永远被爱的生活里，但这是在自己不知情的情况下，如果你知道人可以被替代，他者的消失还会给你带来难以承受的痛苦吗？那么还有必要去克隆人吗？
第3485-电影以外，对于克隆人这种事还是不支持，因为人的欲望是消除不了的，克隆技术绝对会让人用来谋私利，很有可能会引起混乱和战争。
即便未来生物科技再违背人伦，人类渴望永生的欲望也在一直驱动着克隆人技术的到来。说到底，类似的作品想讨论的还是人之存在的意义：是一组独一无二的DNA，一段与周围人重叠的情感与记忆，还是谁的依傍、谁的伴侣。有关克隆人的故事有点老套了，杰克最终会成为卡梅隆生命的延续、身份的窃取者还是另一个独立的个体，我们不得而知。不过能够确定的是，那个分身介入卡梅隆的生活，才让他得以抽离出来认真注视自己已然客体化的生活。那些曾经习以为常的对话、拥抱、亲吻，才变得如此令人难以割舍、万般珍贵。OST加分。
大智度论中有典故如此“如有一人，受使远行，独宿空舍。夜中有鬼担一死人来着其前，复有一鬼逐来，瞋骂前鬼：“是死人是我物，汝何以担来？”先鬼言：“是我物，我自持来。”后鬼言：“是死人实我担来！”二鬼各捉一手争之。前鬼言：“此有人可问。”后鬼即问：“是死人谁担来？”是人思惟：“此二鬼力大，若实语亦当死，若妄语亦当死，俱不免死，何为妄语？”语言：“前鬼担来。”后鬼大瞋，捉人手拔出着地，前鬼取死人一臂拊之即着。如是两臂、两脚、头、胁，举身皆易。于是二鬼共食所易人身，拭口而去。其人思惟：“我人母生身，眼见二鬼食尽，今我此身尽是他肉。我今定有身耶？为无身耶？若以为有，尽是他身；若以为无，今现有身。”如是思惟，其心迷闷，譬如狂人”
呼唤着我的名字
看哭了😭用对自己的残忍去置换对家人的幸福，得绝症本就很凄惨！还要孤独的死去！
