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!
越来越觉得电影游戏化和“元”特质成了商业片制作的趋势，可是剥去这层形式，故事还是很老套，夹杂着各种影视梗也像是在自恋…
五个寂寞的灵魂，就像五条直线在某一个点相交又相离。
凯奇的心酸啊，这么努力有天赋的人，居然被时代抛弃了！！！
连是枝裕和都开始了这样，没有故事强编故事。反正有大把老底慢慢消耗。
我觉得拍一个凯奇这些年怎么拍烂片还钱的心路历程要更有趣。只有开头那点拍的符合预期。
前半段还挺好的后面突然开始没必要地拖延……………………IU演技还不错啊挺惊喜的
希望凯奇能再回巅峰！两位男主的演技无可挑剔
表演上IU一角的心理转变拉动了情节蔓延；宋康昊的影帝表彰的主要是他对韩国影坛的贡献，而不仅基于本片。
凯奇的心酸啊，这么努力有天赋的人，居然被时代抛弃了！！！
说回春了倒也没有，中规中矩也没什么尺度的流水线喜剧罢了，Nic自己演自己就是最大看点，以及……谁不爱小本老师的帕丁顿熊呢？
抛开《小偷家族》的框架，没太多是枝裕和的影子。回头想想让冯小刚来拍也不错，葛优演大叔，舒淇演女主，任素汐演女警察....
确实有理由怀疑，立足于异国的是枝裕和，担心被扣上“韩黑”的骂名，于是以浪漫化表达来拍韩国童话。一手好牌，宋康昊、裴斗娜是演技派塔尖，IU是偶像派塔尖，往哪打都有风险。模板化的不仅是导演，还有IU，还是那个保持脸黑又始终偶像的她，隔着一公里看她上楼梯都带着MV质感。
树木希林换成宋康昊还凑合，但女主的表情确实少了点
凑合吧，算是近七八年里凯奇主演的电影里还能看地下去的
行云流水，一气呵成。剧情似曾相识，但更像是一个女主播的故事。小偷家族升级版，但比小偷家族好看多了。裴斗娜这发型怎么有点像陈翔三点半。结局的处理略显草率。
戛纳入围提名，IU演电影跟其他前辈在一起还是差多了，故事本身没有太多精彩之处，胜在情节线索之间的联系。btw开头我还以为是寄生虫...
分了好几天磕磕绊绊地看完，期间看完了N个cut，n部电影，太破碎了。
戏中戏中戏的套娃模式结构上比较有趣，作为浪子回头的凯奇洗白之作，既有自嘲也有豁达，玩得尽兴。
意外的是，“娃娃鱼”李东辉的客串是亮点，不愧是自带笑点的男人～
还蛮喜欢的，以现实题材讲了一则当代社会的“童话”，轻重有度的留白，很多问题也没有给什么答案，“比起生完孩子再抛弃，生孩子之前杀死孩子，难道罪就更轻吗”；演员都很恰到好处的，组成了这一段彼此人生明亮的记忆
