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.”
故事很简单，也不太吸引人，东木老爷明显老了，90岁了，太厉害了
多一星给老爷子面子 其实可以更好 一直以为最后俩人会中枪然后骑马去边境 做成让子弹飞的开放式结局效果 但也很好
毕竟是东木的电影。英雄迟暮，似乎无力去激荡，但永远的牛仔会变行动的冲突为内心的舒缓，能利用手中的夹笔之力书写另一番人生风景，孩子说他曾经辉煌，现已垂垂老矣，东木不去辩驳，他去拥抱他暮年的爱情，去享受他活着的每一秒，没有什么完全彻底的对错，父母之爱，友谊之光，没有什么永恒，都会逝去，我们不能只感慨美好的流走，我们要把目光投放在力所能及的当下。
“你以为你得到了所有答案，然后随着年龄增长，你发现你什么都没得到。但等你发现这一点的时候已经晚了。”他的电影都像是半自传体，就像他年轻时候演的那些牛仔片，当时他感觉自己很酷，什么都有了，但是他现在发现这些荣耀男子气概这些东西都是虚假的
我怕这就是他的最后一部作品，他自己似乎就这么想的。
《廊桥遗梦》中的东木老爷子确确实实有其独特的男人魅力，但本片中还不断有女人倒贴就多少有些他想展现自己不服老的意味了。
老爷子九十多了还自导自演，祝您长命百岁。
多一星给91岁的老爷子，一开始任务出来还满是期待的，坚持到老人训野马戏时候就显强弩之末了。一方面不太相信他如今的身体状况能完成片中的危险动作，同时又觉得这样的非商业片，找动作替身的概率也不大，以至于男孩奇迹般的就成了驯马天才，期待的老牛仔一展雄风的戏也只能省了。男孩表演太让人出戏了，公鸡很亮眼，但格格不入。好多点都具备足够张力造成“极端后果”的，却都轻易的略过，有点可惜。耐心看完老人的流水账，能感觉到一丝丝温情，但还是觉得很失落，很失望。6.7/0.15万 【IMDb5.8/1万 北美票房914.43万美元，全球票房985.73万美元】
后半部分好一些。
大道无形，返璞归真，都九十一岁了，还有什么是不能看开的呢？
不得不说，剧本上实在是太糙了 ，各种剧情转折和人物动机都说不过去 ，但是作为东木的影迷，还能说什么呢，有一部看一部
故事虽不够厚重，但老爷子90+了，要啥自行车，还给自己安排了甜蜜蜜。超级喜欢他
一些瑕疵在91岁的老爷子面前都不算什么了。
西部慢调，抚慰人心。希望老爷子一直拍到120岁
老人、孩子与鸡。一场乘着夕阳之光而行进的公路电影。东木年事已高，在他的创作中已十分明显，有着一种不愿面对纷杂纠葛的慈悲与和蔼。
感觉这个片子问题还挺多的，首先是除了东木和后来小镇的老板娘，剩余的演员表演痕迹实在太重；然后里面人物情绪的转折经常不make sensé （我说那个小男孩）；还有就是对于墨西哥人的stereotype，感觉拿着枪的黑帮各个像傻逼。故事不复杂，但完成得不是很好。后半部份的音乐还算加分。
东木老爷子的这部，节奏和剧情发展上都有些随意有些散，想那拍那。多少有点让我想起他自己早些年那部凯文科斯特纳的《完美的世界》。不过，都这岁数了还能要求他什么呢，开心就好。拍一部少一部了。
3星半，吉他配乐特别引人入胜，整个事件过于简单又顺利，基本说服不了观众的动机。美墨边境的混乱常态根本不值一提，少年一路上也省心，碰到的都是好人，大方的女老板、从天而降的车、以为是拦路虎却没什么用的警察。和以前的片子比，就是个流水账，不想说它是“童话”，可拍得很安然无恙又太过浅白。这西部片的配乐很符气质，虽然到处槽点也不至于很难过，看到这片，想着牛仔导演怎么还不退休。
情节之间僵硬脱节，不是很好的剧作。老牛仔的暮年哀伤，我相信东木自己是接受时代和岁月变迁的，但是对于一个几乎将自己2/3人生都贡献给电影的人多少还是能看出他的不甘心和不消停（褒义）。希望老爷子长命百岁，我认为对于东木的最好结局是逝于片场吧。
典型的公路题材电影，可惜没有多少闪光点，有点太过细碎和泛泛。
