You are never fully liberated from Auschwitz, 11 July 2016 Author: Red-125 from Upstate New York The French movie "À la vie" was shown in the U.S. with the translated title "To Life (2014)." It was written and directed by Jean-Jacques Zilbermann. The film is a Post-Holocaust saga, although it opens with scenes in Auschwitz that are truly horrific. Hélène (Julie Depardieu) and Lily (Johanna ter Steege) were friends in Auschwitz, and they managed to survive the death march from Auschwitz to Louslau together. A third friend, Rose (Suzanne Clément) was unable to walk, so they were forced to leave her behind. As it turned out, Rose survived until the liberation of Auschwitz. The three did not see each other again until 1962, when they come together for a reunion at a beachside resort in Northern France. We learn early in the movie that Lily divorced her husband after the war, and is living as a "free soul," with no permanent partner. Hélène and Rose both married concentration camp survivors. The plot of the film--based on the lives of three actual friends--revolves around their interactions during the reunion. No matter how much ice cream they eat, and how they display their new bathing suits, thoughts keep circling back to Auschwitz. They quarrel about tiny details which they remember differently. They revive horrible memories. It's clear that the reunion will change their lives, but whether the change will be for the better or for the worse is an open question. For reasons I don't understand, "To Life" caries a terrible IMDb rating of 6.1. Fortunately, we saw it as part of the excellent Rochester Jewish Film Festival. If we hadn't had "All-Event" tickets, we probably would have stayed home. This is a movie to be seen, not missed. Ignore the rating and seek it out. It's available on DVD, and it will work well on the small screen. See it!
就挺平铺直叙的一部白开水电影 SIFF 20210620
单位红色电影课看的，非常经典，故事讲得好，镜头语言很厉害，即使现在看也不过时
电影的故事原型为在上海从事地下工作的中国共产党党员李白。
60年前的间谍类型已经拍得相当不错了。在当时相当于对10到20年前的生活的回忆，是现实主义电影最适合的创作时段。我们这个时间点这样的作品是什么？
潜伏的基础版，致敬为新中国解放所有贡献生命的烈士
彩色有彩色的味道，孙道临留胡子比白面书生的形象更有魅力！还挺喜欢早期国产电影中，演员举手投足间京剧的韵味
黑白经典老片的制作水准永远值得相信，老演员的颜值和演技更加碾压当今一票资本傀儡饭桶。而彩色高清重制的效果加成就更是绝赞了，调色带来的鲜活效果和个别场景的惊艳质感（我几个瞬间以为自己在看天使爱美丽或者水形物语），岂止是黑白转彩色那么简单。
孙道临真的帅 剧作上感觉太过于省略 有些需要铺垫的东西被省略了 整体感觉没出来
有好莱坞式慢镜头特效
致敬经典！很新鲜，我以为这种老片子只有电影频道才会见到的
以现在的眼光看，编剧有很多硬伤。毕竟当时从主创到观众文化素养普遍不高，需要脸谱化的表演。电影技法可以说比较幼稚，很多无意义的镜头，需要起承转合的地方又缺少必要的镜头语言交代（可能是在出品年代很多内容近乎常识的缘故）。但对本片评价不能拘泥于此，要参看电影所在的时代以及当时的电影工业水平和创作者局限性。
【他的点划清楚，间隔分明，真像一汪清水。】2021年，4K彩色修复。
——向尊重历史的上色师、修复师傅们，致敬！
不得不说，在大范围追求“先锋”的现在，最经典的电影语言依然发挥着属于它最好的效果。即使是以各种形式（文字、话剧、哑剧、舞剧）听过几百遍的故事还是看哭了。
3.整体还可以，属于中等水平，但是又有一两个闪光点的电影
最开始以为自己会看不下去，没想到却一直看到了结尾。看多了现在的电影，再去看这部电影，觉得好真诚好干净，每一个人，他们的感情都是那么的纯粹，尤其是兰芬年轻时那热忱得想立刻去做辛苦的工作时的样子，我真的被打动了。
一方面是家国大爱。一方面是可以将后背交付的爱情。虽死犹生。

孙道临好美好美好美好美！！真想穿越回在村头打麦场放电影的时代，一遍一遍看了又看。
