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.
刘浩存都很美
好笑的地方就靠台词。
我的大学生活很美好，以至于毕业的头几年，我每次经过学校都会心生怅惘，现实的不如意让我更加怀念学生时代的美好。然而随着时间的推移，我依然沉迷于回忆过去，但是心里再也生不出有重量的情感。韩寒的这部电影就是这样的感觉。他依然会被自己的记忆感动，然而年纪轻轻就走到社会上层，他对乡愁、对于回忆，甚至对于品味、幽默的理解已经固化在二十年前，他不需要改变了。电影里的氛围，多像世纪之交文学杂志上会出现的散文。然而韩寒的读者已经年近中年，即使继续相信那一套，也不会生出心底的共鸣。韩寒也意识到了这个问题，因此用女主的死强行制造悲剧——即使你不喜欢刘浩存的表演，你也得承认，她在影片中的死亡很有冲击力。这是撕人绷带一般的耍赖，却很奏效。于是我的四星并不是给电影，给曾经的回忆。即使不感动了，回忆依然是珍贵的。
青春小清新，还行挺好。“我忘了是从什么时候开始明白的，在这个世界上，说出来的都不会实现。” “越想要的越得不到，无论多爱多喜欢，到最后，一定都会失望”
剧情虽然有点老套但真的很甜很写实，十几岁的我们缺点勇气，词不达意，要印证很多还要等到末尾才会述说自己的心意呜呜呜
纯正偶像剧味 同意不要想十五年后的自己 后天的自己都别想了 指不定明天就死了
这个结尾
两个人骑脚踏车的时候让我看到很青春的爱情。
虽然感觉有些矫情，但是不影响故事啊
韩寒下一部电影就没人看了吧。。。越拍越烂。。。无语到了。。。
看完真的好想吃饭团，看着就很好吃啊。不算俗套的爱情故事，中间满满的推拉是有一点难受。但这就是青春不是吗。索性结局是好的。
说真的 看不下去 这到底在讲什么啊 谁来告诉我 它在表达着什么
②含腾量不高，加在一起二十分钟左右，但笑点很多。
说真的 看不下去 这到底在讲什么啊 谁来告诉我 它在表达着什么
之前矫情的影评人总批评韩寒电影像段子合集，这回真拍了一部段子合集，没头没尾的胡搞，导演手艺的大退步间隙竟然能看出一点被制片方架上去硬拍，安插无数卡司掣肘的刻薄（收钱做事，尽量少一点自我表达）。总的来说还是麦琪的礼物（顺便给果麦带货）土狗情趣青春片，但是刘浩存的性感填补了好多剧力的不足，偶尔蹦出来几句屁话也确实能逗乐，不管怎么说2022年还能看到纯粹只是娱乐，笨笨的商业片还是有点惊喜的
“就像一首你听到好像被打了一拳的歌”（碰拳那段好有意思）
台湾电影青春电影总是在某个时间戳到我当下的哭点
二十一，快二十二了，可我还是喜欢这样的校园电影，喜欢那些稀疏平常，却已是历历在目的剧情，学生时代的爱情不就是这样，小心翼翼，躲躲藏藏，总是口是心非，却又暗自吃醋而泪流满面。
一连串表白那段看到笑哈哈感情食物链吗这是
①能忍受女主是刘浩存的，韩导选她拍这部电影是她被爆之前。
