ALL OF US STRANGERS | Behind-The-Scenes Broadcast Special | Searchlight Pictures

Discover the beauty and mystery of All of Us Strangers in this half-hour broadcast special, originally airing on ABC. Cast and filmmakers take us behind-the-scenes, as they explore love’s multifaceted dimensions and unspoken dialogs we wish we could share with our loved ones.
From director Andrew Haigh. One night in his near-empty tower block in contemporary London, Adam (Andrew Scott) has a chance encounter with a mysterious neighbor Harry (Paul Mescal), which punctures the rhythm of his everyday life. As a relationship develops between them, Adam is preoccupied with memories of the past and finds himself drawn back to the suburban town where he grew up, and the childhood home where his parents (Claire Foy and Jamie Bell), appear to be living, just as they were on the day they died, 30 years before.
Cast: Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, Jamie Bell, and Claire Foy

Not one single Academy Award nomination for this amazing movie. Further illustrates that awards don't really mean anything but how a movie makes you feel means everything.

[@artieash6671]

It is being released too late for this year's awards.

[@ejp1986]

​@@artieash6671No, it was snubbed.

[@ejp1986]

It's pushed me across the line of never engaging in the Oscar's again. I've said that for awhile now, but this makes it official. If this isn't one of the best pictures (ever) with some of the greatest acting ever, clearly they have no clue about what they actual stand for.

[@Chelts]

This confirms for me that the Oscars have very little to do with performance. What surprised me is the Baftas not recognizing Andrew Scott.

[@PrivatePrivate-so4if]

@@Chelts Although the BAFTA membership shortlists the films for the Awards, they then have a system of anonymous juries designed to promote racially inclusive productions and performers, that take over the process. It is these multicultural committees that then actually decides on the films for nomination. This system was created to “overcome” the perceived “problem” of too many “white” nominations in the past. Despite the brilliance of his performance, I suspect Scott suffered because of this prioritisation of racially diverse actors. The irony is that as he is a gay actor in a “gay” film, being part of a minority group was seemingly ignored by the culturally diverse anonymous jury who do not appear to have much sympathy with issues of gay sexuality. I just hope this is not based on their religious or cultural prejudices. Prior to the rejigging of the BAFTA criteria it was the quality of the performances that mattered not the prioritisation of racial diversity. So one has to wonder is it more preferable to promote artistic excellence or social equity in the movie industry and what impact this will ultimately have on the economic sustainability of the overall system? As Disney has found, to its cost, its attempts at “social engineering” in their productions has lead to a collapse at the box office of virtually all their latest film releases and a furious reaction from their traditional audience base that has put the future of the company in jeopardy - and resulted in its being attacked by such shows as South Park. Frankly speaking, BAFTA has been in a bit of a mess for some time because of its understandable, but clumsy, attempts to include racially diverse material in its shortlists and the ignoring of Scott’s performance this year just shows how unfit for purpose it has sadly become. These must be worrying times for a once great Academy that is now riven by the unspoken but deep concerns of much of its membership who fear the consequences of opposing the measures that have been forced upon them. Those who have spoken out have suffered “consequences” and I know of some folk who have been censured and, others who have resigned, because of their concerns about the way things are going. Scott’s omission will undoubtedly cause more questions to be asked his fate is just a tip of an iceberg that is changing the face of the movie industry in ways that concerns many thinking people from all cultures….

Can I hug you now? - "Yes, please" 😭

[@icycrea-mx]

I cried so hard

[@vapsa56]

The "Don't cross your legs " part caused me to sob. It hit me so hard. That was my dad. "Son, men don't cross their legs. Only women do that. " Don't cross your arms in front of you. You don't have breast to hold up." I am 61 years old now, and those memories burn red hot as if it were yesterday. My 6 year old self hearing that you have a flaw that your dad was disappointed with. The emotions are raw. Loneliness is something that I face now. My partner of over 33 years just passed from fighting a long fight against liver cancer. I am kinda lost right now. What will I do from now on? I have always been a strong person. But right now, just to hold someone and be able to cry and not be judged would be needed.

[@rymorrow]

I know this won't take away your pain but maybe it could give you faith in the possibilities. My aunt Mary lost her husband two years ago from a sudden stroke. She was having cognitive issues, but his death sent her dementia spiraling. She moved into a long-term care home about a year ago, and on move in day there was a man in her unit that seemed interested to talk to her. A few months later and my sister and I take her out for lunch and she is telling us about her coworker named Harry and how she wants to tell him she likes him (she thinks she works there). He had immigrated to Canada from Liverpool and her from Larkhall, and they spent their days walking the halls of the home. We bought her a record player for her birthday last May and brought some old records and they danced in her room like they were kids. My sister eventually got the call that they were caught making out and it turns out Harry had a wife outside of the home. They moved them to different floors and then Harry to a different home but I find their story heartwarming. That they could find love in a dreadful place that it lit them up like they were teenagers is truly a testament to the human experience and the human heart. Wishing you peace, joy and love ❤ from Canada.

[@kitskivich]

I'm so sorry for your loss, and I wish you peace and new joys.

Memory is so strange... I am a woman, but I will always remember my mum telling me to actually cross my legs because otherwise my thighs are too big and I look fat. So now, I only sit with my legs crossed even though I know she was wrong.... Some things just stick with you

And people still repeating this bullshit that putting gay couple at the Centre of a movie especially drama is enough to get tons of Oscar nominations

[@Belaugh]

​@@peaceofiona9198The fact that the couple are gay is almost immaterial as it is really all about memory, communication, life's lost chances, about compassionate love and communication. Have you even seen it? Because if you have you cannot ignore the message of eternity and the universality of love.

[@peaceofiona9198]

@@Belaugh Yes I've seen it twice

[@halsxx]

@@Belaugh​​⁠​⁠​⁠It is not immaterial, it’s actually really really important. If you lived through this intense loneliness, which comes with being part of the lgbtq+ community then you would deeply understand. I’m not assuming you are not, just pointing the general idea and referring to your statement that it is immaterial. That’s the one of the most important things in the movie actually 😭 And yes, the portrayal of love is universal, but there’s still the side of acceptance your own identity and the others doing it..

[@Belaugh]

@@halsxx Sorry, but you missed my point entirely. What I meant was that it does not matter what your sexual identity is, this film speaks for and to everyone, about loneliness, mortality, missed opportunities, grief and sadness. The fact it is told within a gay framework, with a gay writer/director and lead actor, makes it more poignant, more moving, braver, but is in no way exclusive. I love the film, have seen it more than once, and I consider Scott one of the best actors working today. It is important non members of the queer community accept the wider importance of seeing AOUS as a morality tale of acceptance and tolerance of everyone for everyone, and not assume queer identity is being devalued by it's relevance being broadened to encompass every single soul touched by this story.

Adam "It was a long time ago" Harry: "Yeah I don't think that matters"

[@gorgeousgeorge8369]

Despite the ending being incredibly sad and beautiful I didn't cry in the cinema. However, the film sucked me in and haunted me so much that I felt compelled to visit some of the filming locations. God knows why. So when I got to the spot where Adam met his dad, with my headphones playing The power of love, all of a sudden I found myself sobbing uncontrollably in the middle of the park in broad daylight with people everywhere. It's something I never thought could happen to me, but I must say that it was one of the most surreal still extremely genuine encounters in my life. Although it was very painful and I'm still reeling from it I feel thankful for the experience. The world needs more films like this.

[@moniquedenouden9289]

It is a beautiful spot!

[@gorgeousgeorge8369]

​@@moniquedenouden9289 It is but when you get there you can't forget what happened there in the film and especially because it's so close to the house where Adam grew up it feels incredibly real. As if you've just stepped into the film, a different reality that Andrew Haigh depicted so beautifully and despite all the pain and sadness attached to it you just want to be part of for some unknown reason. Possibly to let it set you free.

[@kabildostories]

Reading this just now gives me goosebumps. I’d love to experience that too.

[@ilariaquaranta9672]

I saw the movie last week. I got out the cinema like "Ok, so what?" And now... well, I can't get it out of my mind, I feel all the sadness, and I think to Adam as a brother. This movie touched me in a way I can't explain. It spoke to parts of me I silenced for years.

[@SHare-eq4hr]

This film changed me in ways I can’t even explain. Possibly the most affecting performance I’ve ever seen.

[@julzee111]

I felt this way about Weekend. Also a queer film but not quite as heavy as this. This movie was incredible.

[@yaboyskinnypenis]

Yes, me too. I’ve been thinking about ways to articulate it for months, but I can’t quite fit all the pieces together. It just means so much to me and that’s the only sentiment I can express that feels complete.

[@julzee111]

Being a hetro woman, I was very uncomfortable in the beginning of the movie with the gay relationship. Not because I was judgemental, but because of the foreign nature of it. But as the movie progressed, I was pulled in by the universal themes of relationships, and I truly saw the beauty of what love can be and I felt their fears of being vulnerable. This movie was unlike any movie I have ever seen and I am so grateful to be given this experience that was so unexpected because there is not this quality of movie making anymore. And OMG - the acting. I was just floored with how real these characters became to me. It felt so unbelievably organic that I just wanted to savor every word of dialog. And being a parent, I experienced emotions of my own childhood and of being a mother simultaneously. I did not want it to end. When it did, I sat by myself in silence feeling the loss that u feel when you have literally allowed yourself to fall in love with the characters. This movie is a masterpiece. It changed me. And I am so grateful for the experience.

If someone described this film to me, about gay sex scenes and the processing of grief-based trauma, I’d have said no thanks to another contrived art film that arty people feel obliged to bandwagon around. The experience, however, not only didn’t put my guard up, it sucked me right into its vortex. The story was so damn good, the writing was so damn good, and the acting was so damn believable. Still comprehending how it got through my defences and right to my core

[@seufubeca1]

My new favorite film. Gold standard acting and original approach. I felt like I saw myself onscreen in a way I never had before. Andrew Scott's character's internal and external behavior are stunningly exactly how I do/would behave/feel in those situations.

[@jana_123jana]

it's so disappointing that the movie didn't get the award nominations and recognition it deserves. The story is so original and clever and touching. Not the typical cheesy one. And Andrew's acting is a whole other story itself. So real, genuine, touching, sincere. He was incredible. And then there's Paul's talent and sensitivity and pain and strength, portrayed in a phenomenal way. It's such a great movie that people can relate to in so many ways. It's not one of these movies that you watch and forget about it the following day. It rather resonates with you and keeps you thinking, wondering, asking questions, contemplating its effect on you by relating to the story and the characters and imagining what it would be like to meet up again with a deceased loved one, confronting them with things you never got the chance to say, healing, accepting the past, and getting closure and moving on. It's such a deep movie with so much meaning and morale behind it. It deserves so much more recognition and success. Incredible actors, amazing storyline, brilliant script and cinematography. So moving, i loved it❤

All Of Us Strangers is probably the most effecting film I've ever seen. So relateable for gay men my age (I'm 44), especially the effect of growing up in a quite homophobic world during the aids epedemic, the isolation and the disconnect from the broader world around us. It was quite remarkable to sit in a cinema (in Melbourne, Australia) and hear people in the audience around me sobbing at different points. Im recomending this to every gay man of my generation.

[@shannmaddox1836]

Well said, and absolutely agree. 43 year old gay man in the American South here. I saw it yesterday and I’m still tearing up thinking about it. The dialogue and acting resonates deeply. It’s so true to life, particularly, as you said, for our generation of gay men.

Or any generation. I'm 71 and bawled at so many scenes. Beautiful

[@Mario-xr3jo]

Perhaps you meant "affecting"... This is totally different...

[@ryanlew1980]

I just turned 44 this month, and I agree with every word you’ve said. While I believe this movie can touch anyone of any generation, this was targeted to us specifically. We grew up in a very specific time in history. We were without internet for the first part of our lives and got it in a very pivotal time in our development. So many of us grew up very lonely with our thoughts and no real outlet to express what was happening to us. Knowing we were different than others and in a lot of cases, being told we were evil and going to hell. While the movie didn’t delve into the religious parts, as someone who grew up in the Deep South, it was just an added pressure point and reinforced the line about being a stranger in your own family. It’s not an easy film to watch in some parts but no movie has ever spoken directly to me like this one did. I second the recommendation; it should be seen by anyone, but especially for Xennial gays for sure.

[@edrianbobbycalabio1]

This is probably the best movie I've seen. It is amazing! I love everything, but most especially how it's written. Such a brilliant mind to create this movie. Brought me into a world of different emotions.

[@queenbee2324]

Absolutely fantastic film. One that will stay with me for a long time.

[@Mcfreddo]

Wow, what a tie up of a film!

[@JoeBreeVideos]

I’m so glad this is on the internet. I needed to take a deeper dive into the film afterwards. A behind the magic. ✨✨✨💕💕💕💕

[@lyndairish4047]

Before I finish listening/watching this … it’s a parable.. I get it as I am at this point in my life. Thank you!

[@WilliamAndScout]

Extraordinary.

I left the cinema devastated, I was about to fall down the stairs

This film is a masterpiece. It does not need silly little awards to sell. I was never ever one to get excited over long lists of nominations, etc.

[@juliewillis2988]

My partner n I went to see this film a couple of weeks ago, we totally loved it❤❤❤ still playing the sound track and rembering my twenties. Thank you all,it stirred up SO many emotions ❤

[@tigrehaller4315]

Masterful in all aspects.

[@antoniahein3565]

Incredible work from everyone who worked on the film, but bravo to Sarah Finley. That set design was so amazing, I felt right at home in every single shot!

[@tatianacucos2859]

I just needed it, this behind scenes❤

[@andrewaway]

WOW. I can't wait to see this. ❤

[@silverhooligan1256]

This was beautiful to watch, I can’t wait to see the movie.

[@MichelleCuello]

This is the best movie I have watched in a long time. So unexpected, moving, and with an ending, I did not see coming. Andrew was perfect a Paul Mezcal I was not familiar with him. What a relevation. One of those actors that I will watch anything that he is in.❤

[@VictorHLopez33]

What an extra-ordinary film! xxxxxxxxxxxx

[@user-jl2bh4tl8b]

Superb film in every way. It's def a film that stays with you.

[@jaclaird2651]

My mind is blown!

[@barryispuzzled]

I was reluctant to see this at first because I knew I wouldn't identify with the type of relationship the two lead characters had. However, it was actually a film about isolation and it's effects. It was a delight to witness the nuanced scenes of two of my favorite actors: Andrew Scott (a charismatic Moriarty in Sherlock) and Claire Foy (stunningly good in Lungs at The Old Vic). Andrew Scott is a master of drawing you into the world of his character.

This movie is really beautiful in a way i can not explain

[@vesperl1038]

I just loved this movie. Loved it.

[@francescasweeney-androulak5483]

Beautiful film--evocative, haunting. A really novel exploration of the interstices of familial and adult love. Excellent casting and crewing.

[@shakypam]

i think one of my top five of all time, tbh

[@shakypam]

[@MsMcKat-ub4sm]

I cannot wait to see this movie. I have not seen Paul or Andrew in anything that I didn't just love.

[@ejp1986]

Run, don't walk

[@spirit796]

Haven't seen this film yet. Sobbed my 💔 out just watching this tho❤️

[@grahamcrawford4773]

Just saw this in the cinema in Australia. One of the most beautiful things I've seen in a long time. I almost had to walk out in the coming out scene to Mum because it was so close to my own in the 80's

[@soerren5393]

a piece of art and sheer beauty! I have to call my mom now.....

[@Erik-nu1rm]

Superbe film très émouvant on reste l.enfanr de ses parents❤❤❤

[@cequ]

Thank you❣️

[@RDSimonse]

This film nearly instantly became my favourite, until the last twist. Its so beautiful, it brings you to think about so much, it portrays the queer experience so authentically... I just got absolutely destroyed in the last part. I kept hoping, and I still cannot manage to accept that what is supposed to be the reality. Beautiful and destroying in so many ways💙

[@pinoyeto2002]

Nice film. One of the best film that i wish it can happen to me as well... giving another chance to be with my parents. Just to be with them... and the love story between Harry and Adam is fantastic... sad ending. Lots of love and respect to Andrew Haigh... a masterpiece. A movie that will be talk about even after 100 years later. Sending all my love and respect from Manila Philippines.❤❤❤

[@eleninatsi9543]

What a movie really and top-notch acting ❤ A must watch.

[@ADavid42]

it was a very moving, very smart film. Thank you.
