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!
一开始气氛总是层层压抑，暧昧极尽克制，直到两个人走在水中，和开头的天堂重合，才有一种豁然开朗的感觉，清楚到两个人都看见了那道墙，一道穿不过的墙，最后的孩子，虽然徒添遗憾，但是感觉直到最后两个人才明白想要的是什么
氛围 悸动感很足
宗教框架下的压抑和失控。洗礼doi还蛮疯批的。最后结局是要双双出轨的意思吗真的会栓Q
很美，看哭了。
為什麼總要繞來繞去待到結婚生子了才出軌般的戀舊情呀⋯
前边部分拍得很好，是那种青春的萌动，但从这部分的美好之中我开始怀疑自己爱的能力
好久没看电影了，生活开始好一点了之后有点想谈恋爱了。这个好适合东亚的环境啊
多一星给她们的chemistry。What the fuck给剧情。
女主被拿捏死了，为了约会还要去bible study，心疼了。我还是很爱这样的片子，没有明确的be我就当可以he了，我真的很需要快乐的女同电影，很需要。
鉴于marike爸爸说“受洗是你会做的最大承诺”，我想导演将浴缸受洗拍成婚礼现场之后全剧终会比现在好得多....
人与人之间最真挚的感情，不因外界的阻力而消逝，即使是时间和空间也无法淡化这份感情。
marike太会撩了吧，厕所那段性张力爆棚
都是同岁的人，她已经是有一个孩子的妈了，而她还没大学毕业🥲
玛丽卡这个人好奇怪好矛盾，转折好突然，又加上是开放式结局，就变得很迷糊。。好在两位女主强烈的chemistry撑起了整部电影，贡献了不少女本子的心动名场面
所有我以为“嗯 导演该让杰米发火了”的地方 杰米都没发火 天使一样的性格 表达自己的同时不会用火气去伤害别人 玛丽卡真的在想办法了 就是这个解题思路太emm了
uncle roger say: thisu isu nota lesbian. You bad bad. Shaku my head.
可惜摒弃男性成见的表达在后半段弱了下来；剪辑上有些地方也比较碎，歌曲铺得有点满。以及，把打破社会成见在后半段偷换成“想赢/别人只看你行不行”，不可取。
现实里，“我们会白头偕老，只是天各一方。”
一般，最后俩人不应该再见面了，一个继续追求自由去旅行去交新的女友，另一个就在家相夫教子夜深人静时拿着明信片以泪洗面吧。
yclf已成为本人年度最佳姬片...两位眼神一碰感觉可以起火，打五星纯属是翻来覆去看了好几遍看出感情了
