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.
我们需要一部讲女性冒险题材的电影，ok，just do it
看尿了...就是一个组织搞假钞，因为管理层小弟老婆出轨，导致假钞被小弟员工误以为是预支薪水借给了（男）朋友，而（男）朋友拿钱去pc，把钱给了小姐，小姐把钱还给了男主，男主送另一个小姐的时候夹着钱的书被碰巧带走了，而这本书被还到了书店，又和店主的养老金一起回到男主手上的这样一个狗血的巧合故事...然后管理层小弟就一波被带走了...时间叙轨还有点意思
剧情3星， 没啥不好的没啥好的，一开始的慢节奏让人有后续大反转的错觉，导致看完结尾有种“啊 原来只是这样”的感觉。多的一星献给风间！！ 风间一带眼镜不得了！！ 气质这块拿捏死了啊
看的很乱, 首先拍的一般般, 拍的调调很高但是故事完全不吸引人, 第二是感觉和电视剧没接上. 看睡着了.
nobody understood me or no one can share my feelings with
一星给黑帮残杀的血肉横飞还有父亲情妇的异国情调
每一部电影都有七濑（2）。|2.23日，晚上加刷，早上《我的初恋女孩》。1。一小时磨出20分钟。半晚44分钟。跳一下对手戏，弃片。
圣诞节过后的假期看了一部男主角死在圣诞节的电影。。。除此以外不知所云
小成本，戏很简单，剪辑一般，节奏缓慢。人物性格模糊，行为合理性存疑。
这种电影，问题是一开头观众就知道他要演什么，包括会遇到什么困难，心灵的救赎，大自然的壮丽景观等等。就算导演把所有这些都呈现出来了，看完以后也就觉得平常，没什么惊喜，除非你有极强的超展开。
先说剧情结构，多线故事有一个外壳，有点创意镜头，故事外叙述人展现，外壳就是作家男主给出版社编辑看自己的小说，而小说就是主线故事。再说主线故事本身，结尾揭开谜底以后有一种就这么点事的感觉，讲的花里胡哨的，其实故事不复杂，就是三张假钞的去向，而且这个故事的起点有点怪怪的，假钞为什么这么重要，男主为啥对只见过一次的舔狗眼镜男这么看重并为此这小说，眼镜男为何对妻子忍气吞声，书店老头为何留钱给男主，问号太多了，可能在日本比较合理吧，整体来讲还算下心思了，6.8
只记得一个Motherfucker了，还有，后妈很有味道。
还是挺真实的。尽量生活化了。剧情太多，篇幅太短，应该做成电视剧。
4，莫明有种盖瑞奇的fu~而且神奇的是还有一点点文学性在里面。
对意大利黑帮题材还是比较有好感的。但毕竟前有《教父》之类经典高不可攀，后期想有所突破的确很困难。
《黑道家族》的男主角扮演者詹姆斯甘多菲尼在剧集结束七年后因病去世，非常令人遗憾，在本片中扮演东尼小时候的演员正是他的儿子迈克尔甘多菲尼，我觉得这就是对他最好的纪念了，说不定正因为迈克尔甘多菲尼也像父亲一样走上了演员的道路才促成了本片的拍摄呢。
两颗星都给娜奥米的卖力演出。
其实不错，可惜我看的删减了，精彩部分没看到
颜狗等线上片源了/除了龙也外演员全员酱油啊......土屋这个造型真认不出
看懂讲什么，但感觉莫名其妙的，那个秀吉是绿帽侠吗？
