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.
虽然说最后反转当下没想到，但想想都是那个套路，可只有反转没用啊，前面都散架了。
四分是为了最后20分钟的惊天大反转，也许整个影片想表达的就是妈妈给自己的永远比自己给妈妈的爱想象中的大。
没有感觉特别好，如果撇除十几分钟的泪点，其他部分都是很平庸的电影。这部电影最大的特质是真诚，还有最后打在字幕上的“从我有记忆起，妈妈就是中年妇女的样子”，这句话太动人了，太发人深省了。
既然母亲能在匮乏中让孩子快乐，为什么平凡的我们非得等到拥有什么才去回报，让妈快乐是很具体的很眼前的事情，不要让它变成遗憾。
《乘风破浪》是穿越回去寻找妈妈，和父亲和解，流畅的剧本＋浮夸的表演。
其实看得出拍的比较稚嫩 但是题材很好 谁不爱自己妈妈呢？后面反转是意外之笔 没想到是一起穿越回去的 五星吧没的说
天要下雨，娘要嫁人，这种话我真是在电影院极度难受，而且贾玲想让她妈过得更好只局限于让她嫁得更好，这可不就是最可悲的吗，还有啊，跟猪头三结婚，还妄想生洋娃娃？
大部分小孩子总会听妈妈说“要是没有你们我现在早就....”很少有李焕英式的妈妈说“我宝啊，有你妈妈就最幸福了”
反转之前都很普通，反转后的十分钟眼泪就像水龙头一样止不住了......
电影是和妈妈一起看的，我在异地住院，她从家里赶来照顾我，见到我说，不知道怎么，明明是离开家，但见到我就有一种回家的感觉。
李焕英是一个真实的名字，出于商业考量，影片名称并不讨巧，但深层的逻辑还是一次较有把握的赌博，拿贾玲的真实经历以及这些年在综艺领域密集的曝光度。本来韩寒抄袭《回到未来》的《乘风破浪》不值得拿来说，大概利用筒子楼走廊穿越是全世界导演的必修课，没想到在贾玲这里倒成了例外，直接拍成被打下凡间的天蓬元帅。段子基本是小品质地，通俗有了，审美跑了。表达”白“得吓人，就像掰羊肉泡馍，生怕观众在理解剧情方面有任何障碍。那点真实情感大概是影片最后的尊严了，什么时候好哭成了评判电影的标准了？
7.7分，看完后问一同观影的妈妈这个电影和《送你一朵小红花》哪个好？她说各有千秋。其实这是有道理的，就以这部电影前半段而言，真的很缺乏电影感，难怪让那么多影评人诟病。但比起《送你一朵小红花》那模棱两可的结局而言，无疑是《你好，李焕英》的反转胜了。有一个好反转的电影，在豆瓣上评分往往不会太低。
这就是导演只拍给自己妈妈电影 而不是献给所有妈妈的电影 你懂我意思吧 全片0共鸣 更别说泪点了 6.5分 但是如果我事前知道是双穿越设定 结合剧情 不及格分
给父母了一碗水，就以为自己爱父母无与伦比，哪知道父母对子女的爱深如大海。
前半段女儿独自穿越时，她努力想让母亲活的更好一些，后半段母亲跟着一起穿越更让人泪目，她想让母亲知道和亲历她对妈妈迟来的爱。但在真正的世界里，早早去世的母亲，她已完结的生活既不会更好，也不会知晓自此以后女儿一辈子的遗憾。
看完了很委屈，知道了自己严重的mami issue咋来的了，嘤。
大部分小孩子总会听妈妈说“要是没有你们我现在早就....”很少有李焕英式的妈妈说“我宝啊，有你妈妈就最幸福了”
不好吃，但美食一条街只有这家店了。感谢吧。。
最后10分钟这劲儿可真大，周围都是擦眼泪的；小段落节奏有一点点问题，几乎可忽略不计；沈腾的表演克制了许多，刚刚好；太有诚意了，纪念自己的母亲、新人导演处女作，我不听我要给满分
加长版小品式电影，那些永远无法在现实中被涂改的遗憾，总算找到一个可以任意改写的方式了，在电影里，贾玲完成了与母亲的和解，她是幸运的，因为大多数人一辈子都做不到。
