BFI At Home | Help Q&A with cast and creators Jodie Comer, Stephen Graham, Jack Thorne, Marc Munden

Фильм және анимация

Jodie Comer and Stephen Graham, writer Jack Thorne and director Marc Munden discuss a powerful and extraordinary Channel 4 drama addressing the crisis in care homes unleashed by the coronavirus pandemic.
Set in a fictional Liverpool care home, Help tells the moving story of the relationship between a young care home worker (Comer) and a patient (Graham), whose lives are changed forever by the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.
A determined Sarah (Comer) goes to extraordinary lengths to protect those in her care. But the staff’s unwavering commitment, compassion and heroic efforts can only do so much, and Sarah is pushed into a dark corner.
Help transmits in the UK on Channel 4 on 16th September at 9pm and is then available in the UK on streaming service All4.

    I’m not gonna make this all about Jodie because Stephen & the rest of the cast and creators have done as much of a remarkable effort to tell this story in the most genuine way but she is just so captivating. Her talent is beyond extraordinary. And I can’t wait for an entire movie with her speaking her full on Scouse accent. Not being from the UK I will have to consider subtitles 😂 anyway, so excited for this important project.

    An incredibly gut wrenching drama acted so close to the bone. If you watch it/have watched; please consider the lasting effects on care home workers. Pay/treatment etc. I love channel 4 for these opportunities

    Thank you so much. I wish I had the platform to thank you in person and tell you how projects like this impact our sector. Changing peoples perceptions of a “low skilled low paid” workforce and seeing that we are equally as important as our NHS system partners. I can not wait to watch this and I hope a brave producer continue this effort with another project / series highlighting social care in the UK! A massive thank you again. Regards Olivea Allegrini-Jones, Adult social care workforce lead.

    Living in the US, I'm going to have to find some way to watch this. I'm hoping it's released to BBC America sometime soon after it airs. I'm a big fan of both Jodie Comer and Stephen Graham. Having recently found out Stephen introduced Jodie to his agent Jane Epstein, now also her agent, it gave me a little more respect for a man I'd already held in high regard. Stephen has said Jodie's talent alone would have carried her, and I agree. However I believe that introduction to a great agent helped expedite the process. I've not seen the one episode of Good Cop where Stephen and Jodie first met, so I'm very much looking forward to seeing them act together in what promises to be a great story.

    My favourite actor is Stephen Graham. He slays any production he’s on. I didn’t know he introduced Jodie Comer to his agent. What a big hearted guy. Unfortunately I don’t think it will be on bbc America as it’s on channel 4. Channel 4 is very hard to view from another country.

    In You Tube try Jodie Comer Help Drama. that is bringing up the whole programme here in UK. Should point out that it is a very British drama and the accents are very thick. I had to consentrate and my family are originally from Liverpool. Having said all that Jodie Comer is a genius and she will have you crying your eyes out. Hope you find it.

    I knew this would be good. I don't watch TV at all these days - like sitting down at a set time and 'tuning in' to a program ... only the football really. But, I made a "special occasion" for this one ... I was transfixed - my blabbermouth flatmate came in halfway through and started talking .. "SHUSSSHHHH!! - this is brilliant!" He sat down next to me for the next hour ... At the end: "that was brilliant", he said And so it was.

    This was an incredible piece of filmmaking. It was wonderful and harrowing - it was so engaging but felt personal and something that needed to be said, despite still being in the pandemic. All the cast were incredible - the depictions of mental health illness were all too real (my grandfather was in a social care home and died before the pandemic). Stephen Graham for me, is the best actor of his generation and only goes for stories and scripts that mean something. He could easily go for the blockbuster - but his work, especially recently is engaging and he’s really building a body of work. Jodie is also proving to be a versatile actress and I am really looking forward to see where her career goes - especially with The Last Duel by Ridley Scott. The best but was the most harrowing part which looked to be filmed in one shot - very tense, very real and really brought into,the world of carewroking during the pandemic. My hat always goes,off to care working - but this filled me with such respect. My only criticism of the film was the end - it felt like the another statement had to made when the statement was made before during the night shift. It felt a little unrealistic but I get that it was trying to depict the mental health of both worker and patient. Otherwise - incredible.

    I don't 'do' dramas, as usually they are shit and so unrealistic. But after I saw it was Stephen Graham and Jodie Comer, I just had to watch Help. It was true to life, harrowing, disturbing, and I can't get it out of my mind. Care workers are treated like shit in the UK whilst on minimum wage.

    My intelligent, well-read father got Alzheimer's around 75 and he became a shell of his former self. I would love to see this but it looks like it's nowhere to be seen here in the US. And I've seen Jodie Comer in some of her movies and series and she is a remarkable actor. Her range is incredible. However, the entire cast is excellent. Please find a way to show this important film in the US. How about PBS or? Thank you all who were involved in making this film. It wrenched my heart.

    This made for heart breaking, hard hitting, harrowing , but honest viewing last night. Brilliantly and sympathetically performed by the brilliant Graham and Comer. Well done on bringing this desperate time in social history to our TV screens. I sincerely hope that all involved win many awards for this one off drama.
