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!
天下没有不散的筵席
无与伦比的舞台艺术，12位演员，精彩绝伦。
但总有人在黑暗中书写歌颂人性，微微闪烁之光，飘飘忽忽在黑夜摇曳，些许时刻给绝望的人一丝安慰。
精彩啊，OST每首都好喜欢，很好的展现了人之本性，既善既私
一部让人舒服、给人安全感的电影，即便有看似挑战的话题下，叙事策略依然在“治愈”的思路上不停探索衰老的欲望，和人生的意义。
演员太棒了
虽然有点太完美以至于不真实，但足以激起无数人的憧憬，大千世界男男女女。
太棒了！演技全程在线，当对情感状态和人物心理不甚理解时，剧情表现会一次次让你感到意外和牛逼，多理想主义的关系，多感人的交流，我们都需要对自己进行回顾和突破，最好的自己可能是自己想象不到的模样
ps.怎么预约leo啊？请告知！
20年了，这群像剧的切入视角真的不错，彷佛完全没有关系的地方和人们。以及我隐约想起疫情之前好像来过上海巡演？？没去看真是太遗憾了TAT
疫情前买的最后一部音乐剧门票，结果被取消了，这样一想好像快两年没看过现场音乐剧了。女机长的几首歌都好好听，一人分饰多角也很厉害，舞台虽小但利用充分，虽然还是感觉太普通了。
好精彩的剧作推进！看得我好几次热泪盈眶，到最后直接泪流不止。这样的剧作应该已在我的脑海里预演过千万遍，但这是第一次被做得如此系统与完整。这部性喜剧，相比起其他任何的性题材，显得那么的单纯与真诚。这不仅关于性，还关于人与人之间的交流、尊重、理解和文明。当Emma最后像是喊口号一样地说出“pleasure is a wonderful thing,it's something we should all have”时，我觉得感动得不得了。我们把羞耻建立在爱人对你的爱抚、亲吻与倾听之上，用罪恶去捆绑原始的欢愉。我觉得或许当有一天我们选择去原谅自己的原罪，那才是我向往的人类文明的彼端。
无论如何，享受性爱是非常开心的一件事。没有任何理由值得我们压抑和自我禁锢，尽情的享受其中，享受自我。
男主有点帅，拍得很好笑！确实一些难以启齿的正常需求不会得到正视，regulated and safe太理想了哈哈
很感动！开始感觉可能有点闹腾，而且因为每个演员都担任了好几个角色，会有点错位的诧异感。不过最后那种厚重感和爱的传递的正能量还是传达到了，尤其是从那些人起飞离开后开始，那种怅然若失，挺戳人的。
封闭空间的作品毫无疑问人物要设置对，一个近乎理想化的秘密情人 一个教宗教学的假哈姆雷特式中学老师，有揭露回忆有矛盾有和解，剧作上节奏也是极好 至少不无聊。问题就在于性与道德这个脱不了干系两角，就如同后面打破幻想一般，你不知道你眼前这个人他会如何重塑你们当下的行为呢，而如此避谈，一是篇幅的确展不开，二则是暴露了作为寓言体去讨论但实则是灌输的形式。由此必然要考虑所谓的人物设置，也由此暴露了他所为新精品电影以保守中产女性作为目标这一属性，消解那些所谓“性化”的元素是为了否定性的承认先验的观点—我们都难以享受性并且性是生命源泉，而输出这一观点最大的悖论就在于排除一切社会因素却又必要的让人在社会中渴望它，排除必然的社会性却又妄图在真实中引用此种虚幻，而它女性向的打法最后只会失落于真实想象中
Fantasy？no. Liberation？YES！Even a first step！
一輩子有好多束縛，掙脫桎梏真的很難。看完覺得很感動，Emma和這個男生的化學反應出奇的不錯。｜和K，她說看完她甚至覺得性工作者真的應該合法化。我說，不，這只是電影，所以很理想很美好。真實的大環境下，合法化只會進一步加深對女性的剝削。
太棒的电影。果然是女导演才能拍出的作品。男主不是鸭，确实是性圣人。国内的异性恋女孩们真的好可怜，她们的男朋友处处不如这只鸭，还要配合表演高潮。
这无疑是一部充满勇气和突破性的电影——从话题到表现方式。尽管剧情走向和故事结局难免有着过分戏剧化的色彩，但通过艾玛·汤普森前后衣着、姿态、肢体语言的细腻变化，仍然极具说服力。非常棒的女性主义题材和准舞台剧佳作。
