Set to broadcast in two one-hour films, this family treat is inspired by the classic books of Barbara Euphan Todd and is pegged to be the TV event of the season. Mackenzie Crook has taken Scatterbrook farm and the infamous characters of this well-loved tale and injected them with a tender and authentic charm. This is the perfect family adventure, packed with a fun, mischievous spirit and delivered with an environmental message.
Mackenzie Crook, (Pirates Of The Caribbean, Detectorists) who has written, directed and stars as Worzel Gummidge, has gathered a host of both accomplished and brilliant actors who are set to appear in this eagerly anticipated adaptation.
Playing The Green Man, creator of the scarecrows, who arrives to Scatterbrook in episode two, is comedy legend Sir Michael Palin. He says: “It’s a lovely part for me, but the whole script is very memorable and touching, and very funny too. It quite skillfully weaves in something for everybody all the time.”
Zoë Wanamaker (My Family, Harry Potter And The Philosophers Stone) will play the eccentric local aristocrat, Lady Bloomsbury Barton in episode two. She says: “The whole thing is so charming and inventive. It’s the sort of thing I’d watch. I’m sure it will be a huge success. I know it will - it’s divine.”
Vicki Pepperdine (Getting On, The Windsors) takes on the role of the formidable Aunt Sally in episode one. She says: “There’s something for everybody. It’s got this heart to it, and you’d be hard pushed as an adult not to engage with it.”
Steve Pemberton (League Of Gentleman, Benidorm) will play Mr Braithwaite, the farmer. He says: “This is the kind of show the whole family can enjoy together. It has a lot of humour, a lot of visual humour too, and I think kids will enjoy watching the children being central to the story.”
Rosie Cavaliero (Gentleman Jack, Cleaning Up) will play Mrs Braithwaite, she added: “It’s a story about the imagination, and children escaping into this different world. Mackenzie’s version is totally contemporary.”
Ones to watch India Brown (Hetty Feather) and Thierry Wickens (making his TV debut) will play Susan and John, two city children spending their summer at Scatterbrook farm who quickly befriend Worzel and begin a summer of adventures.
The first episode, The Scarecrow Of Scatterbrook, sees two young strangers arrive in the village of Scatterbrook. It’s not long before Susan and John encounter Worzel Gummidge, the Scarecrow of Ten Acre Field. Their world is sent spinning into confusion when they realise Gummidge comes to life. The only person more shocked is Worzel, when he discovers that the children are not in fact fellow scarecrows but humans.
Their worlds should never commune but fate has conspired to create an extraordinary union. The seasons have stopped and the harvest hasn’t arrived. The rhythm of the natural world is out of kilter and this unlikely trio must try to put it right. Magic, mystery and mayhem unfurl.
The second episode, The Green Man, welcomes another mysterious arrival to Scatterbrook. The Green Man is the creator of scarecrows and keeper of scarecrow lore. He isn’t at all happy that Worzel is consorting with humans. Elsewhere, local aristocrat Lady Bloomsbury Barton is holding a fete, with a Scarecrow competition that Worzel is determined to win. What will The Green Man and Worzel's most competitive rival, Soggy Bogart make of it all?
Worzel Gummidge is written and directed by Mackenzie Crook and is a Leopard Pictures, Treasure Trove Productions and Lola Entertainment production for BBC One. It is Executive Produced by Kristian Smith for Leopard Pictures, Lisa Thomas for Lola Entertainment, Mackenzie Crook for Treasure Trove Productions, with rights holders Patrick D. Pidgeon and Eric S. Rollman executive producers for Pidgeon Entertainment, Inc. It is produced by Georgie Fallon and Alex Moody is the Commissioning Editor for the BBC.

事实证明依据个体经验而形成的个体叙事更锋利也更柔软
ps,看的是96min.版。不喜欢媒体宣传的大尺度让人看了晕过去的画面被删减这种说法，所有人都应该看看女性为了自己的命运做了多大的抗争做了多大的牺牲。如果这时候你说她不去sex就什么事都没有了，那我真的想把你八辈祖宗都问候一遍！
长期以来，繁衍后代、相夫教子一直被默认为女性的责任，随着女权觉醒，部分妇女争取合法权利，允许堕胎就是其中之一。迄今为止，世界上仍有地区禁止堕胎，不论胎儿的由来和未来，将生育视为女性的事。看似是在捍卫生命，保护新生儿的来到这个世界的合法权利。但实际上，这就是对女性生命和基本自由的权利，无情地践踏。这部电影以女学生独自承受意外怀孕，堕胎无门，生活受到消极影响，最终选择用无法保障生命安全、非正当的手段引产，展现了迫害“正发生”，维权“需发生”。
还是《阳光普照》的路子，后面再拍一部，可以搞个家庭三部曲了，虽然这次的配乐换人了，但还是一股林生祥的味道。导演的朋友圈几乎都用上了吧，熟人们都来了，疫情期间拍的电影，疫情只是导演灵感的开始，其实是借疫情和隔离去讲人的状态，家人之间的关系，这对母女的关系其实早就隔离了很多年，只是借着疫情和心理疾病的壳子对面对问题。瀑布是老妈内心积压的情绪，最后释放成了洪水，把女儿直接卷走。用文艺的对白解释瀑布，像《阳光普照》的结尾那样，配上优美的配乐，太爱钟孟宏的这种感觉了。
其实你对身体和自由一无所知
金狮。背景是60年代堕胎仍是违法行为的法国，几乎人人闻堕色变（比如女主片中两个好友），相同题材佳作在前，本片还是拍出了自己的角度。全片以”周“为章节的女主堕胎计划过程推进，女主精神压力的变化搭配足以令人产生不适感的画面，一步步带动、刺激和挑战着观众，导演大量的特写镜头也始终带来很强的压迫感，3星半。
当初爽的时候怎么没想到这出？出了事就让一个无辜的生命承担后果，左棍就是一群不负责任的自私鬼。
因為歐洲的藝術電影描繪的東西總是和現實太像了，所以那種在課堂上被老師點名回答問題的緊張，舞會想要穿的漂亮吸引眼球卻又怕流言的糾結，所謂“好學生”就不應該有性慾望的束縛，所有青春共情的痛點全部在熒幕上展現出來。
一部血淋淋的自传，贡献了与《女人的碎片》开头分娩戏同样真实揪心的几处堕胎戏。手持摄影近景跟拍，4:3画幅将人物困于压迫空间，屏幕上出现的时间数字在提醒即将到来的审判日，观众作为旁观者无从协助，只能在晃动的镜头下紧随安妮经历这场残忍磨难。比生理痛感更加焦灼的是心理摧残，父权社会剥夺了女性主宰身体器官的权利，堕胎是明令禁止的法律条文，是避忌不谈的敏感话题，女性满足欲望需要付出惨重代价，怀孕是一种只会攻击女人的病，剪掉脐带像是切断束缚。剧作和技法并不比同类题材4m3w2d或NRSA出众，威尼斯评审团授予它金狮更多是褒奖其直面社会议题的勇气，绝非陈词滥调，无论何时何地何种方式，它都值得被反复书写，我们也需要这样的电影不断警示世界，抗争之路从不平坦，由历史映照当下，直指这荒谬的时代，一切都“正发生”。
04/23 SFFilm 女主试图堕胎的过程简直触目惊心 虽然是60年代法国发生的事 可能又在德州之类的地方重新上演 it’s happening again and again
完全聚焦在女主本人的角度很好，特写近景拍的也很好。
女人应该拥有决定自己身体的权利。因为无论怎样，女人承受的都更多。
有很多暗示，但深挖又嫌没劲；仔细想来可能是因为故事本事的平庸性（trivial），而也正是happening导致了这一事件的必然平庸。抱着看《钛》的心情进入影院，没想到却走了和钛完全不同的极端。一端极度展露身体，性，皮肤，血液；一端却极度展现氛围，情感，及连续性。是一部一气呵成的电影，但或许将平庸描写得太过平庸了。
挺喜欢的片。四比三的画幅、近中景手持跟拍以及有些做旧的滤镜，可能会使得法国人看这片的质感像是我们看第五代第六代拍八十年代的片，无形的结构压迫和逼仄简单的环境一道，把人困于一种铁笼般的生存境遇下。 新时代只是开了个头，还有很多尾巴没来得及被拖出水面。女性的历史必然以一阵阵身体的疼痛为起点呈现出来，那就必然有对历史本身的把握。和隔壁的《钛》一样，都从身体出发，比《钛》好的是，其现实主义质料的疼痛更能深入结构造成的心理应激疼痛，是历史的(法斯宾德式的)，不是概念的(宣言式的)。
帮助，这就是我想要的
女性相比男性面临着巨大的生育风险，学会正确的生理知识和避险意思非常重要。即便是现在允许堕胎，其对身体和精神的影响也不容小觑。
网络资源版少了据说十分血腥的5分钟，一部让人极度难受和抑郁的影片。2021年是女性主题电影的崛起。
理解豆瓣这个拳台为什么给高分，但作为一部电影，真的很不怎么样。
英国，瑞士，爱尔兰，韩国，法国。全世界就这五个国家有这狗规定。
金棕榈和金狮是商量好了软硬兼施一起命题作文么。狗之力 上帝之手 正发生 你选哪个当金狮，就看你是啥性取向了。
