Apple TV's best works this year are frequent, first the workplace thriller drama "Life Cutting", and then the Korean drama "Pinball Game" that took over the baton "Squid Game" are deeply loved by the audience.
Now there is another big production that has made a big deal.
"Rogue Man"
Slow Horses
The play is adapted from the spy novel of the same name by British novelist Mick Elon, and there is a sentence in the Guardian interview article that fits the tone of the play:
If the work of the master of the spy novel, John Le Carré, is a reflection of a post-war world fraught with moral uncertainty, then Elon is a manifestation of our chaotic and fragile age. In the play, these "Slow Horses" who are swept up in the office politics of the beautiful agent's workplace to low-rent housing are not banished lambs, but wolves abandoned by bureaucracy and have to fight with their real enemies at the same time.
Here are more explanations:
"Slow Horses" means a horse that slows down, and the translation "streamer" borrows from an old language.
"Pre-Qin Prose • Zhuangzi Xu Wu Ghost" has a cloud: The son does not hear about the people of Fu Yue?
On Salt and Iron. Executive Duties: When the province is endowed and the peasants are not lost, the people will return to their fields.
Book of the Later Han Dynasty. Volume III6. The Biography of Jia Kui: Civilized by virtue, the people call it, and there are eight or nine thousand households that have returned from exile.
"Displaced person" refers to the person who was exiled to the field, which means very much in line with the situation of the intelligence officers of the "House of Despair" of the play.
In addition, the translated name is also suspected of referring to the spy movie Ronin, the English name of that film is the English pronunciation of the Japanese ronin, referring to the fact that this group of international mercenaries are like Japanese samurai who have lost their lord, which actually means the same.
For "Streamers", Apple TV+ made a big move and gathered a group of fairy top-notch actors to help it.
Director James Harveys, one of the directors of the hit science fiction drama "Alien Catastrophe" and the drama version of "Snow Train".
The lead actor, Gary Oldman, known as "Dog Daddy", has a lot of works and talent, with "plastic surgery-like acting skills".
In 1986, he became famous for his film Sid and Nancy.
After that, there were many masterpieces, "Assassination of Kennedy", "Four Hundred Years of Thrilling Love", "This Killer Is Not Too Cold"...
Later, he won an Oscar for "Darkest Hour".
Post-90s actor Jack Louden, domestic audiences affectionately call him Old Deng.
In 2016, Deng Sr. starred in the BBC historical drama "War and Peace", starring in "Tom's Glory" and was nominated for Best Actor at the British Academy Film Awards Scotland Awards.
With 2017's Dunkirk, Old Deng became famous in one fell swoop.
Some fans have likened it to a mint in the film:
"After the little brother was rescued, he shook off the water droplets from the sea, and calmly said good afternoon to the captain's son, as if a girl's heart had sprung up in a heavy and depressing atmosphere."
Goddess-level old drama bone Kristin Scott Thomas, abbreviated KTS.
Representative works include "Bitter Moon", "Four Weddings and a Funeral"...
Her best-known work was The English Patient, for which she was nominated for an Oscar.
In the play, the KST with short hair is really charming and compelling!
In addition, there are Olivia Cook, the actor of "Ready Player One" Artemis, and Jonathan Pres, the great leader of "Game of Thrones", and so on.
Such a movie lineup can condescend to the TV series, but it is really a god who saves the audience.
In the opening scene, Agent Carter, played by Deng, is amazing for eight minutes of chasing the suspect at the airport in a suit, but the mission fails.
The reason for the failure is the mistake in the transmission of information.
"Blue shirt, white t-shirt"
"White shirt, blue T-shirt."
As a result, the "suspect" detonated the terminal...
Although this was only an exercise, carter's mistake was calculated to cause 149 deaths and 212 injuries.
And that almost meant that his career as an agent was over.
But Carter's grandfather used his connections to keep him in MI5, albeit in the Rolls division.
Department boss Jackson Lamb, played by Dog Daddy.
He hung his feet on the table like that, and the man collapsed in his chair, with a big belly, completely oblivious to his sloppiness, and his socks were both broken.
But it's really as amazing as an acting award. Although there is a bit of a card division, in fact, there is no old Dundo in the scenes under the two episodes, but as long as the dog daddy comes out, there is no one else to see. He naturally convinced people that this was the image of a lazy boss who was not doing his job.
Several others were either paddling in the office or were tasked with looking up records from hundreds of years ago.
The future of this department is worrying!
So, what is the significance of the existence of this department?
There are always movements that can't be dried in the sun, requiring a detachment from the center such as the Slough department to get their hands dirty.
Carter, whose career died prematurely, was full of reluctance in his heart, and he wanted to work hard to change all this, and on this basis, he also began to do whatever it took.
And in this waste wood department, everyone has their own unspeakable past.
As the plot unfolds, it will be presented to the audience one by one.
Such a story is good to look at.
Partners who like British dramas can rest assured that they will be in the pit.
