With the imminent release of Rose Matefeo’s brand new romcom Starstruck on BBC Three at the end of April, this coming year marks a watershed moment in broadcasting history with most BBC Three comedy either starring, written by or created by women. BBC Three will be the first UK channel to achieve this landmark in female representation with 58% of long-form scripted comedy written by women.
Upcoming titles include Lazy Susan, Starstruck and Ellie and Natasia plus the second series of both In My Skin and Back to Life.
In addition to this, the BBC today announces four new BBC Comedy Slices for BBC Three, all of which are written by and/or star female talent: Ladybaby, Amicable, Dinosaur and Britney, which results in the majority of comedy programmes on BBC Three now being female led.
Kate Daughton, outgoing Head of Comedy at the BBC, says: “Building on the huge success of Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Daisy May Cooper, this marks a monumental achievement and is testament to the fact the most pioneering and exciting new voices in comedy are increasingly female.”
Kate leaves the Comedy Commissioning team today having made a tremendous impact overseeing a raft of female first titles. Since Kate’s arrival in 2017 she has commissioned and nurtured Fleabag, Mum, Ghosts, Gavin & Stacey: Christmas Special (2019), This Time With Alan Partridge, Back to Life, The Goes Wrong Show, Out of Her Mind, Two Doors Down, In My Skin and Man Like Mobeen. Alongside the forthcoming Witchfinder, Alma’s Not Normal and Stephen Merchant series The Offenders (w/t).
Shane Allen, Director of BBC Comedy, says: “Five years ago there were still articles asking where all the funny women were. That hoary old nonsense can finally be dispensed with once and for all. It’s a level playing field with the most vibrant and dynamic work coming through from females writers and writer performers who are elevating the art form of comedy and expanding its horizons. As for Kate Daughton, no longer will she curse at me for loud sneezing in the office. Partly because she’s leaving and mostly because we’ve not been in the office. Truly bereft; in denial that she’s off and we’re lucky to have had her for so long.”
Charlotte Moore, Chief Content Officer, says: “Kate’s impeccable taste, whip smart comedy brain and beguiling ways with talent have had a transformative impact on the comedy output in her time here. The fact that BBC Three can claim to be the first UK channel with a majority of female led and written scripted comedy is in large part down to her vision and passion for backing genre defining female creatives. She’ll be sorely missed but thankfully leaves behind a terrific legacy of shows ahead.”
中国人多数都有落叶归根的执念，居有定所是最起码的生活状态。所以，弗恩这种65退休的失业白领游牧式的生活很难在中国想象。有数据显示美国大概有25万人没有固定住所，房车网站总是宣称这些人中的多数在过旅游人生。但本片却告诉观众，不是为了旅游而漂泊，而是你不得不选择在路上。影片很成熟，做到了形散而乘不散，特别是年轻华裔能拍出这么老道的美国文化，难得很！
nomadic和sedentary，不同方式不同选择罢了。有人一直在路上，心却持久地锚在了某处，宛如放线的风筝。整体风格很冷峻很无力，但中后段插入了一处特别温暖的画面，随后又复于沉寂。个人而言没有感到特别亮眼或触动到。
You know what I'm talking about.
科恩嫂如在三广中一样硬朗而深刻，脸上刀削斧刻般却很耐看。
纪录片式影像、冷静的镜头、忧伤配乐，沉郁苍凉悲伤执着的格调，这是比较鲜明的感受。以公路片“在路上”与生命之旅呼应，包含逝世与新生，孤独与温暖，困境与相助，那些路途中我们曾相遇相知相依相伴相离的灵魂，刻骨铭心，积淀为黯然柔软脆弱、不可碰触的角落，选择远方的山峰荒漠草场放逐，期待伤口的愈合。。。弗兰西斯不用说话也具有极强的表现力。
虽然和克隆和个体之间达成了和解，也和自己和解，但是就算有百分之九十九的相似，也有一些细微的改变，比如爱狗变成怕狗，更多的还有什么都是未知的，甚至一些我们自己都不知道的，就是有这些存在，才让个体独特，所以再像也不是那个人了。
身体的箭头虽指向前方，灵魂的箭头却指向过去。被留下来的人如何与自己的余生相处。
生活显然是艰辛的，但依我看Fern大多时候并不痛苦。有的人一阵子在路上，而有的人注定一辈子都要在路上，我们只能路上见见…
home love life woman 越简单越困难
除电影本身而言，现在的Anti-Asian Hate运动/ First color Asian women 应该起到了一定的作用，不能说这没有“天时地利人和”的”运气” or 运气本事也是一种实力？
结尾挺好的！我就知道她应该回去看看！我全副武装去电影院看的，回来打开hulu发现hulu就有！鼻子差点气歪呃…
观赏此片时，我在想每个人都有 #无依之地#，同时我又感觉所谓的自由也许也是禁锢…也许我们内心都有个“洞”，用不同方式去“填补”。Fern在一次次告别中上路，她与Swankie告别的那一刻，我挂念的是Swankie（她是无奈的）；但之后的一次次告别呢？尤其是与Dave的四次告别，自由、放逐还有家，都无法让她寻求到平和，但至少她知道自己想要什么！
No, I'm not homeless. I'm just houseless. Not the same thing.
画面的确很美。让我想起了每回我父母来看我的时候，我们都会计划很长的公路旅行，有回我们开车从纽约到佛罗里达，以及至少两回跨加州的公路旅行，我们在这样的路途上的确感到了某种诗意，看到了类似的景色。每个人都有这种放逐天涯的冲动，但是最终被迫实现的原因是因为女主在人类世界中没有了任何牵绊，在这种无奈之中你也总得倔强的寻找自己存在的意义。但是事实的真相是，人的一生没有任何意义，如同一捧散沙，你人生的各种挣扎只是为了让它充实的虚度掉而已。如果我是她，我会收留那只狗，为这种虚无寻找某些意义。当然，这种自觉的摆脱别人对她的牵绊的倔强，也毫无意义。
感觉就像公路上的减速带，看这部片子，你不得不减速，握紧方向盘，小心驾驶，才能往前走。我也想与他们在路上见，可惜我还有责任在身。但愿有一天……
1，有纪录片风格。2，是疗愈电影。3，相当于美国版的《天水围的日与夜》，渐渐揭开整个人或家庭的真实情况，暗中情感激荡，却不给你发泄的出口。4，是个公路电影。5，探讨了生死，和《一天》结尾部分一样，还是疗愈。6，貌似公路电影都是疗愈的。7，没有一个台词和画面是无用的，全部细节都是伏笔，在后半段一个个呈现。二刷的时候，一开始就会有2个感动点扑面而来，真的是细节控。8，缺点也是一样，太完美了，每一个坑都完美的填上了，甚至刻意而为之。谁会记得几个月前送你一个打火机的路人？9，《大佛普拉斯》并不需要交代的那么清楚，却依然震撼。留白其实也是一种完美。10，细节伏笔：全部细节都是在出现后才交代，让观众恍然大悟，犹如画卷，一步步揭开她完整的人生和性格特点，非常值得二刷。11，鲁多维科·伊诺第的钢琴曲作品。
Ali演的是没话说了，风景和装修也美得很。就是这故事是不是略弱。。。当然，是个很精致的小品了！
