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!
什么鬼！看Paul Thomas Anderson看出了千年女优是怎么一回事？！导演本人是不是lock down里光看日剧了？！最后的奔跑蒙太奇我都要看哭了。本来中间程觉得都太长了大概只能给三星的。没想到结尾兜的也太懂了。各位导演最近都爱拍迷影向的电影么。这片的私心也太重了，一堆PTA粉参演，跟今年的Wes Anderson如出一辙是怎么一回事。
“不可能事事都顺你心意啊”
那组双向奔赴的镜头还挺感人。女主这个人物很飒也很特别。
我一直以为这是林克莱特拍的，结果一看PTA
虽然不是一部John Hughes式的青春片，但结局浪漫得让我想起『十六支蜡烛』。
电影上映期间有太多大片看，就完全忽略了这一部。再加上另一部同期的文艺片belfast真的是看的睡着了，也牵连了对这一部的预期。没想到坐飞机时候看完意外的好看。摄影，灯光，舞美，演员演技都超级过硬，更难得的是剧情也超级好，并不是一个只重视美感的空架子（比如moonlight和if beale street could talk。没错，都是同一个导演的电影）那种青春爱情友情模糊不清的来回拉扯被拍的淋漓尽致。演员长得不惊艳但演技超级棒。是个很容易杯忽略的年度好片。
以后不感兴趣的电影还是不要看了，70年代真的挺无聊的，剧情，人物，感情，都很无聊
柔柔，我的柔柔。

只有Grace Kelly，其他梗都无感。
开卡车那场很刺激，两人跑步跑得我神清气爽，复古风格也做得很好，就是没有特别的动人。片尾发现女主一家人真的是现实中的一家人…女主没换名字只换了姓氏出演
加上一个个事件折射出七十年代的美国一些危机
更像是《不羁夜》那种可口却咂摸不出到底是啥滋味的感觉。时代只做为注脚的轻盈，女性的犹豫和脆弱实在是动人。
“我们可以选择爱，相信爱的魔法。”
歌好听。第一次特地去看中配，第一次做了一匹马的梦女🤗
12.27 看不太懂 在一个vintage电影院看的还挺有感觉 感觉就是很散的片段拼凑起来的 有些还挺搞笑的 配乐也还可以的 看的不明所以倒是真的 不知道想表达啥 但导演风格个人特色挺明显 整个片就是那种脱离结构的离散感 但结构某种程度也是有必要的哇 有bowie的歌也还挺好听的哟 还有结局两个人he了莫名没有那种青春狗血的感觉反而觉得挺真实的 就里面所展示的情感都是短暂地联结 再短暂地分流 就好像一切都是暂时的都停留在当下了而已（电影院在los feliz 结果发现最近去世的joan didion以前也住在那里+昨天去二手书店买了她一本书
我跟Coming of age电影有仇 而且这部丑到无法直视
所以说啊…..唉，也没什么好说的。男人至死是屁孩儿，女人至死要当妈。永远的拧巴，永远看不见尽头。
很青春的调调（抱着纯欣赏的心境 并不想经历） 那个口音其实我觉得是在两次嘲笑学口音的人 结束得措手不及 女主演得好 镜头下的她特写脸部质感都出来了 很美
