Green Wing and Free Agents star Stephen Mangan is to play the lead role in BBC4's adaptation of the late Douglas Adams Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.
Mangan will be joined by Darren Boyd as his sidekick Richard MacDuff and Cold Feet and Friends actor Helen Baxendale, as MacDuff's girlfriend Susan.
Adapted by the Bafta-winning writer Howard Overman – who is also behind Misfits, Vexed and Merlin – Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency follows the exploits of Adams's chaotic character as he uses his unusual methods to solve crimes.
Mangan said: "I've been a fan of Douglas Adams ever since the Hitchhiker's radio series which I used to record as a child and listen to over and over again in my bedroom. It's such a thrill to now be playing one of his brilliant characters.
"Dirk is a chaotic, anarchic force of nature with a totally unique take on the world. He is described as 'lazy, untidy, dismissive and unreliable'. I've absolutely no idea why they thought I'd be right for the role."
The Dirk Gently books have formed the basis of a play and a BBC Radio 4 series but have never before been filmed for TV.
Adams's agent, Ed Victor, said: "For all the years I represented the late, great Douglas Adams, the most substantial frustration for both of us was that we couldn't get films made either of Hitchhiker or Dirk.
"Douglas once said, memorably, that 'getting a film made in Hollywood was like trying to cook a steak by having a bunch of people come into the room and breathe on it'. Well, we did eventually get a film made in Hollywood of Hitchhiker and, tragically, Douglas didn't live to see it. Nor will he see this adaptation of Dirk – but it's worth bearing in mind that Douglas always thought Dirk would make a better film than Hitchhiker and I feel sure that this new TV drama with a terrific script by Howard Overman will prove his point."
Shooting begins this week in Bristol on the 60-minute drama, which is being made by ITV Studios in association with the Welded Tandem Picture Company.
The Dirk Gently production is to be directed by Damon Thomas – who also directed BBC4 drama The First Men in the Moon – and will air early next year.
但是我错了
3-4星之间。联想到现在经历的新冠。灾难影响是以十年甚至更长来度量的。灾后重组家庭的亲情让人动容。剧的节奏有点拖沓。
悬疑部分被削弱到几乎没有。前半部分重点呈现的群戏也很没有必要，反而后半部分跳跃性叙事主线才是应该尽早呈现出来的东西。整体氛围实在是太苦大仇深了，沉闷压抑，拿腔捏调。是枝裕和常有社会性事件题材的故事，我们看他的电影却不会觉得目的性如此强烈，非常刻意地营造真事改编的氛围，让故事的艺术性和可看性双双削弱。
女主说世界还没到无可救药的地步，官员说生活的国家就是这样，老奶奶说不想给政府添麻烦。
发出声音就会有人听到吗？但又让我想到了那个消失的视频里那位基层的人说：你看到了你一个人，但我看到的有那么多……突然心碎。
导演的能力显然没法驾驭，幸好演员皆在水准之上，我对王啸坤的印象还是带我去寻找……以至于快结尾才认出来。
干细胞研究能治愈植物人，还能让人永葆青春，长生不老……最后还隐秘恶臭地玩了把代孕
看到这女的就能猜到她肯定是凶犯，男主替她背锅的……天灾无可避免，人祸呢！！！
除了打砸出戏，其他都还好
后半段有点出戏，前半段是我喜欢的年代爱情剧。
爱到底是什么呢？
这种题材的犯罪片，如果让韩国人来拍，估计能上8分。
看了别人的评论才知道原来这是小说改编，ma，ano，有时候我还是不咋理解日本的思维，老人总想不给国家添麻烦，但实际上本来就造成了麻烦，而且社会福祉本来就应该是通过税收来调节财富来帮助需要被帮助的人。。。
单纯懵懂，两小无猜，青梅竹马的两个人经过生活的打磨有情人难成眷属，要是能一竿子到底去讲好一个纯洁的爱情故事也挺好，女主逐梦演艺圈性情大变让人不适，总感觉到一种故事分裂
影片节奏真的非常缓慢，就好像慢慢去体会那种失去亲人的伤痛。日本大地震造成的海啸真的是摧毁了好多的家庭，人们也都在艰难中努力生存。
日本片子总体节奏就是太磨叽，当然，你也可以说是为了细腻刻画，呵呵
电影烂到家了，但是，王老出现的瞬间，我脱口而出：“这不是王啸坤吗？”huh，一个我十年都没有想起过的名字，不知道为什么我还能脱口而出。果然那些你以为时间已经帮你冲刷掉的记忆，身体还是帮你记得。btw，不认识王啸坤的朋友，应该认识戚薇吧哈哈。一下子想起了当年一大家子在吃饭时我执意要开电视看我型我秀的画面，家里现在应该还有王啸坤的专辑吧。
看片名和开头我以为要讲一个类似返老还童的科幻故事呢，结果是假借干细胞概念让人保持年轻的设定。拍的有点混乱，主旨可能是开篇第一句独白“如果有一天我忘了他们，忘了过去的一切，那这个人还是我吗”。王珞丹依旧女神。6.2分17827评价
我觉得王朔在骗我高分，但又心甘情愿😂太怪了，太惊奇了😂
三星半，灾后重建、社会保障、弱势群体立意都在，只不过前部分和后部分有一点割裂，最后女主倒是挺出彩。
