简介:肯尼斯,他习惯性地称呼自己为凯。他最近发现自己正在成为心中预想和崇拜的那种坏蛋和恶棍,即使肯尼斯实际上是一个可怜的倒霉蛋和失败者,也不能阻止他内心的这种“坏蛋主义情节”的自我膨胀。辞职之后,肯尼斯走上街头瞎混。他以为自己全身酷劲,人人都要惧他三分。可实际情况是,酒吧里的辣妹根本不买他的帐。给自己惹上一身骚的肯尼斯不得不开始在街头贩售大麻烟来还债和度日。这个时候,当地的一个小恶棍头目蒂隆把肯尼斯招致麾下。可以说,蒂隆给肯尼斯打开了一个通向犯罪、斗殴和致富的大门。现在,两难的问题落在了肯尼斯的面前:黑帮是能帮他致富呢?还是黑帮只是想利用这个可怜虫?一句话评论虽然有些种族主义和性爱场面的镜头让人不舒服,整部影片的素质还是说得过去的,尤其是亚当·迪康自编自导自演,让人印象深刻。——每日银幕整个一部电影监制全是亚当·迪康的个人秀。不过,他做的不错。如果没有这个在银幕上上串下跳的明星的话,整部电影会乏味不少。——综艺这是一部不可救药的、毫无意义的、生搬硬套的、一点也不好笑的英伦城市喜剧。——卫报幕后制作按照亚当·迪康的说法,这部电影与他早年间主演的《年少轻狂》和《成年之殇》一脉相承,讲述的都是那种发生在街头的故事,聚焦的都是英国社会的边缘和底层人民。只不过,前两部电影是略带有忧伤、悲观和消极的正剧,而这部《街头岁月》则是一部彻头彻尾的喜剧片。在某些评论眼中,这部电影甚至还是一部喧杂的“闹剧”。谈及影片的出处和历史,亚当·迪康说:“十几年前,我曾经看过一部叫做《星期五》的电影,当时我还很年轻,我觉得那部电影没啥意思。可是当我成为真正的演员之后,我却梦想自己有朝一日能拍出一部那样的电影来。后来我和菲米·奥耶尼兰合作了《年少轻狂》和《成年之殇》,我问菲米,我们能不能拍出《星期五》那样的电影。菲米说可以,于是我们就开始撰写剧本和一切拍摄前的准备工作。可能你们看不出来,这部电影和《年少轻狂》有着千丝万缕的联系。”影片的创作其实并不顺利,亚当在一开始其实还是想把这部影片创作成一部正剧的,可是他又觉得银幕上一群年轻人拿着刀和枪杀来杀去,可能会让人反感,于是他便把影片创作成了喜剧。他说:“一开始工作,我发现人们之所以会来看电影,是因为他们当中的很多是来看我的——我之前的电影和我之前的那些形象是他们对我的认识的来源。如果我还是继续在银幕上拿着枪、拿着刀,到处打打杀杀。他们如果真的要看这种东西,那么还不如去贫民窟走一圈,那里全都是现实版的‘古惑仔’。所以我觉得,喜剧是处理这种题材的好办法。后来,我在拍摄《逆我者亡》的档期内和我认识的人都说了我的故事和创意。他们告诉我,为什么不把它写成剧本呢?这些人的疑问激励了我,我找来了我从小就认识的迈克尔·瓦(Michael Vu),和他一起写出了剧本。整个剧本,可以说都是我的某一段生活的再现和展示,我知道只有我自己和我的朋友才能把这个故事表演出来。而且,因为我创作了这个故事,所以我觉得,似乎也只有我才合适来执导这部电影。我找来了一些投资和制片人,他们都很支持我自己来导演这部电影。所以,顺理成章地,我成了这部电影的导演。”花絮·亚当·迪康与诺尔·克拉克在《年少轻狂》、《成年之殇》上紧密合作了两年,然而在拍摄本片时,他决心与前两部划清界限,拍摄一部完全个人的喜剧片。

简介:温斯顿·丘吉尔、哈罗德·威尔逊、玛格丽特·撒切尔、约翰·梅杰、大卫·卡梅伦……这些为世人所熟知的英国首相的名字,在60年来不断更迭,而英女王伊丽莎白二世始终在端坐在他们背后。人们不知道的是,60年来,伊丽莎白二世在白金汉宫的一个被称作“相约星期二”的密谈中跟12位首相进行过会面。与其他英国公共生活的会晤不同,这是女王与她的首相进行的私人会晤。关于每一次会晤的内容,谈话双方一直保持着心照不宣的共识:永不复述谈话内容给别人,甚至包括他们的家人和配偶。然而,英国国家剧院现场呈现的《女王召见》却打破了这个沉默公约,并想象了一系列唐宁街官员和女王之间的重要会晤。从丘吉尔到卡梅伦,每个首相都曾用这些私下谈话作为传声筒和忏悔录——时而亲密,时而具有火药味。曾经在2006年的电影《女王》中因扮演伊丽莎白二世而斩获奥斯卡奖的影后海伦·米伦,此次“驾临”伦敦西区,领衔主演剧场大作《女王召见》。从年轻的母亲到祖母,这些私人谈话记录了伊丽莎白二世时代的弧线——政客们穿过选举政治的旋转门来来去去,而只有她依然如故,等着迎接她的下一个首相。剧作家彼得·摩根与海伦·米伦在奥斯卡影片《女王》的合作之后再次在这部西区热门剧作中聚首。而这部戏的导演由曾获奥斯卡提名的导演史蒂芬·戴德利(《舞动人生(Billy Elliot)》、《时时刻刻》)担当,其精彩程度获得了多重保障。《泰晤士报》评价其观演感受时说:“有趣、真实、善良、跌宕起伏,并充满惊喜。我爱这部剧里的每一分钟。”

简介:第一集第一战之后,随着英国盘算到了战争的毁灭性,以及帝国的衰亡,人们在战间期萌发出了自我怀疑与意识形态危机,这使英国小说界发生了变革。在此期间,一些最为伟大与创新的英国现代小说作品横空出世,它们从此主宰了小说界的命运与财富,永垂不朽。第二集第二次世界大战的尾声迎来了原子时代——那个威斯坦·休·奥登杜撰出的焦虑年代已然来临。大屠杀与蘑菇云霸占了当时人们的情感,随着政治局势的恶化,焦虑、惊骇与惶恐“世界末日大战可能爆发”的情绪日益强烈。新一代的小说作家们身负重任,将遭遇并表达出这个时代。第三集最后探索了70至80年代——这段时期诚如安吉拉·卡特所示,鉴于当时的风俗观念无时不刻不被质疑着,确是“没有什么是神圣的”。由于英国小说猛然成了众人瞩目的焦点,小说家们无疑站在了一场新革命的最前线。作为挑衅的使者们,他们改变了文学思潮,根深蒂固。

简介:Britain, is an island. Surrounded by a cold and unforgiving sea. For centuries it protected us from attack. But to prosper and thrive, we would need to do more than hide behind her salt water shield. Britain needed brave men, willing to venture out into the unknown and she needed good boats to take them there. I've spent my life at sea. Now I'm going to take passage on six boats that together, tell the story of modern Britain. Built for exploration, war, fishing, industry and our very survival. These are the boats which built Britain, and changed the way we live - forever.

简介:历史学家 露西·沃斯利博士将给我们带来一段距今已经200年的英国历史--那段最具爆发性,最具创造性的年代--摄政时代。一幅生动的画面展现在眼前:一个颓废堕落的王子--臭名昭著的摄政王掌控下的优雅颓废时代。他对美色,美食,声色犬马之道沉迷至深,以此成为了一代传奇人物...也正是这个人,重塑了伦敦城,开拓了举世闻名的摄政街,通过对艺术和设计的大力支持,把摄政时代打造成为英伦风尚的缩影...第一集:不加掩饰--王子的画像露西·沃斯利博士带领我们领略摄政时代的初期,当时的英国在1815年战胜拿破仑,一时风光无限;我们还将一起探索摄政王扭曲复杂的个人性格。他对美色,美食,声色犬马之道沉迷至深,以此成为了一代传奇人物...第二集:摄政时代风格大发展露西·沃斯利博士将给大家展示滑铁卢之战后的英国,这个趾高气昂的新兴国家想要在世人眼中树立何种形象,它又是如何在建筑设计中体现出这种气质的...同样,依然是摄政王引领风尚大旗。他变得越来越胖,爬不了楼梯,也走不了路,建筑就成为了他创造力的出口:最具表现力的就是位于布赖顿的皇家行宫。这座行宫在他做摄政王初期,仅仅是一座新古典主义的优雅别墅,但是,与建筑师约翰·纳什共事之后,乔治在1815年之后,把这座别墅建造成为一座令人震惊的皇家宫殿。在这座宫殿中,露西对摄政王的品味有了更多的了解,也发现了他与他的厨子之间的共同点...第三集:多数派和少数派--分裂的十年露西·沃斯利博士仔细研究了摄政王骄奢淫逸带来的反作用,他所代表的精英阶层与大众的嫌隙。在乔治作为摄政王统治的末期,英国的革命一触即发...在这一刻,舆论的力量--也就是激进的作品和演讲,挑战了国家的司法权。诗人雪莱和他的妻子玛丽公开支持革命者,玛丽的著名小说《科学怪人》表现的正是这种恐惧,这种被不可控制的新工业世界围绕着的恐惧。

简介:Anne Boleyn is one of the most famous and controversial women in British history. In 1536, she became the first queen in Britain's history to be executed. The brutal speed of her downfall, and the astonishing nature of the charges against her - treason, adultery, even incest - makes her story shocking even to this day.Yet whilst we know how Anne died, the story of why she had to go and who authored her violent end has been the subject of fiery debate across six centuries. In a radical new approach to televised history, a stellar cast of writers and historians, including Hilary Mantel, David Starkey, Philippa Gregory and others, battle out the story of her last days and give their own unique interpretations of her destruction.

简介:Documentary that reveals the secret story behind one of the greatest intellectual feats of World War II, a feat that gave birth to the digital age. In 1943, a 24-year-old maths student and a GPO engineer combined to hack into Hitler's personal super-code machine - not Enigma but an even tougher system, which he called his 'secrets writer'. Their break turned the Battle of Kursk, powered the D-day landings and orchestrated the end of the conflict in Europe. But it was also to be used during the Cold War - which meant both men's achievements were hushed up and never officially recognised.

简介:A special follow-up to the programme that broadcast exclusive access to the research into the remains of Richard III found underneath a Leicester car park. The research confirmed that the remains were his, and helped build a picture of what he looked like. Using unseen footage of the dig and tests, and fresh interviews with the lead scientists, this programme reveals multiple new dimensions to the hunt for England's long-lost king. The project involved dozens of specialists, in the fields of archaeology, osteology, history, forensic pathology, genealogy and DNA analysis. The programme pieces together the critical steps in the archaeological excavation, explaining how the Greyfriars Church was uncovered and detailing the painstaking exhumation of Richard's grave from the first indications of human remains to the exposure of the body's twisted spine. In the university's labs, the programme follows the scientists as they examine the skeleton to unlock the lost king's story, revealing its clues to his diet and social status, and to the diseases he endured. The film reveals how the DNA match with Richard III was made. Perhaps the most harrowing stage of the project was the minute forensic examination of the cause of death. Piecing together CT scans and microscopic analysis, the team identified the major injuries that Richard suffered in the last moments of his life and shortly afterwards.

简介:We take our liberties for granted. They seem absolute and untouchable. But they are the result of a series of violent struggles fought over 800 years that, at times, have threatened to tear our society apart. On the frontline was a document originally inked on animal skin – Magna Carta. Distinguished constitutional historian David Starkey looks at the origins of the Great Charter in 1215 to check the abuses of King John - and how it nearly died at birth. He explores its subsequent deployment, its contribution to making everyone – even the monarch – subject to the rule of law, and how this quintessentially English document migrated to the North American colonies and eventually became the foundation of the US constitution. Magna Carta has become a universal symbol of individual freedom against the tyranny of the state, but with ever-tightening government control on our lives, is it time to resurrect it?

简介:In the late 16th century Europe was in the grip of a ferocious witch hunt, where thousands were tortured and burnt at the stake. The church was fully behind this terrifying crusade against the imaginary enemies of Christianity. In France and Germany alone up to 40,000 people may have been killed as witches. But England and Scotland were almost untouched by witch persecutions until King James himself decided to launch his own, personal war on witchcraft.In 1597 King James VI of Scotland published 'Daemonology', a handbook on how to recognise and destroy, witches. The book explored the threat that 'those Detestable slaves of the Devil', posed to James himself. It fuelled waves of witch hunting throughout Britain.The legacy of James' 'Daemonology' continued throughout the 17th century, and led to the torture and execution of hundreds of women in a series of infamous witch trials. No-one knows exactly how many men and women died in these trials, such as the Pendle trial of 1612, or how many others were killed in cases that never came to court. The documentary reveals the purges in many areas of Britain drew directly on King James' book. Also for the first time, remarkable new archaeological evidence from Cornwall, suggests that witchcraft was actively practiced for centuries, even during the most intense periods of witch-hunting. Experimental archaeologist Jacqui Wood has excavated strange pits lined with swan's feathers, and filled with animal skins and human remains.

简介:Poet Simon Armitage traces the evolution of the Arthurian legend through the literature of the medieval age and reveals that King Arthur is not the great national hero he is usually considered to be. He's a fickle and transitory character who was appropriated by the Normans to justify their conquest, he was cuckolded when French writers began adapting the story and it took Thomas Malory's masterpiece of English literature, Le Mort d'Arthur, to restore dignity and reclaim him as the national hero we know today.
