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.
不知道怎么说。137分钟讲好一个故事足够了 这电影也挺完整的 而且本来我对那些锃亮花纹繁杂的盾牌 又重又长银色铁剑 眼花缭乱的奇怪巫术还有打斗时大声怒吼的维京文化真的很感兴趣 但是我是真的不喜欢太过于怪力乱神 就好像完全把王子这段岁月的历练辛酸幸运化了 他的那些忍辱负重全白费了。安雅还是美的 她是我来坚持看下去的动力 其实结局双双死掉我还挺喜欢的 没有胜者才是电影的真正的结局。
我从未见过这么艺术的史诗片。一开始我是冲着《冰海战记》真人版看的，结果开场没多久错认为这是醇厚的A24暴力神棍片，结尾回想确实是哈姆雷特原型。看到导演我明白了，他的片子后劲都有点大。以及冰岛演员演冰岛人好合适啊！尤其是Björk哈哈哈哈！
北欧史诗，灰调荒原，成人仪式，近战肉搏。一个男人要杀伐多少部落才能从一条狗变成一个人？
8.0 很诡异， 角色的“感觉”消失了，这里的所有关于躯体的，是以视觉呈现的，多次非传统性戏的部分都有观看行为的发生，在这里最为核心的部分是在本片没有明面涉及的人脑
太多自怨自哀的解构型对话，反而浪费了设定和人类未来大环境的描述。所谓新旧两派和真正的“罪行”都只是浅浅而谈
是死亡，那小黑所说就是对的
我以为看完《钛》之后，再也没有片子能恶心到我了，谁知道又来了一部《未来罪行》，这片子应该不是拍给本世纪的人看的。
故事中最带感的冲突点是男主妈这个角色，妮可基德曼飙戏看得很爽，加一星。
看预告片还以为要往好莱坞爆米花的路上走，结果片子居然尽最大程度地保持了罗伯特艾格斯神秘、野蛮与诗性的个人风格。制片方也是心大，9千万美元让罗伯特这么玩儿，肯定亏成狗，就当为提升大众审美与院线片逼格做贡献了，也算功德一件。摄影真是吊炸天，瓦尔基里真就艾尔登法环真人版了。
北欧人的悲剧，麦克白的复仇，not my type
又一部沉迷于神话影像氛围而内容空洞乏味的形式之作，这类作品的现代文化价值几近于无。
最后索尔吃下食物，不再痛苦，留下了泪。开放式结局，
故事算Robert Eggers目前三部里最弱的，但是视听太享受了😭 应该是近年我看过拍close-up拍得最好看的，拍对称的频率堪比Wes Anderson但是又完全不像Anderson。过后补采访才知道配乐是贯穿全片，但看的时候其实也没有觉得突兀，Bjork yyds
PS:好像理解了该片……又好像没理解😂😂😂但是要我去看什么解说又是万万不能的……所以就当自己看懂了吧，哈哈哈
阿姆雷特他妈竟然是尼可·基德曼 女神老啦 很舞台剧的表演风格
画面和bgm还是能打的，但是真的真的太长了。个人认为这种超慢节奏氛围片，大家都是能分分钟猜到结局，一定要短小精悍。时间长了这么多慢镜头，谁都会觉得累。而且这个片和《麦克白》有点像，同样是强调宿命感和逃不出的命运，但完全没有前者简洁的说服力。男主的反复横跳整得我有点无语。
3.5。顯然，當大銀幕觀眾因為沈浸感接納了完全由神話儀式建立的劇作節奏後，本片絕對沒有在質量上過於粗疏。只是在艾格斯個人維度，其中不僅大量穿插前作元素作為補丁，吵鬧的台詞削弱了各類儀式的嚴肅性。更糟糕的是，此種對於復仇神話毫無思辨的一比一搬演，似乎更加坐實了他在炫目技法之下內核空洞的可能性。希望他別再接這麼大製作了。
和《女巫》一样，她脱下了衣裳，但是在糅杂着北欧冰冷与野性肌肉的世界里，她的存在感实在过于稀疏与刻意。

The perfect render of ethnography and mythology, authenticity and outlandishness, OG viking black metal music throughout (!!) in the background and icelandic landscape in the fore. It just builds and builds and keeps getting better! I didn't know what to expect going in but came out mind-pretty-fucking-blown.
