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!
这个电影因为那个叫播客的豪猪给毁了，这选角导演也是个王八操的选了这么一个让人恶心的演员，菲比能和这么个傻逼做朋友也纯属扯淡，编剧也是个nt，好好一部电影因为这个豪猪愣是没看下去。
Nothing tops the originals, but what they did here was fun and thrilling enough.丨@ Pathé Breda, 24 Nov 2021
同志版《傲慢與偏見》，愛情線寡淡如水，友情線勉強能看，可惜一眼望去，皆是同志刻板印象，或者準確點說，以刻板同志視角出發敘事，又mean又drama，某種所謂的同志主流，而其實，Howie或Will們才更像現實里的同志。同志們一樣度假才不像電影里那樣，曾經和同志好友一起出國度假過，沒有亂搞也沒有撕逼，陽光海灘美食美酒，是我最chill的假期之一。
对妖艳贱系了有了足够的心理建设后，竟然觉得全gay版傲慢与偏见真的不违和呢，尤其当诺瓦那本书跟我书柜里的一毛一样，瞬间有了一点点莫名其妙的好感，总的来说还算顺便看看挺好玩的电影，至于什么LGBT社区的意义啊，亚裔配置我就不逼逼了。八一八，这一大波肉体集合是够爽，但个人不是很喜欢两位亚裔主角的颜，大概这种眯眯眼塌鼻子符合西方人亚裔审美，还是我又狭隘了呢。
还是很遗憾之前那个女版没有再拍下去 而是直接续牌了原版故事 情怀还是有的 棉花糖小鬼依旧可爱 可是故事为了照顾没看过原版的也设置得过分简单了 最后又回到了那个消防站仓库 希望这次不要再半路夭折了
小演員好給力，除了中國電視劇風濃郁又莫名其妙的boss以及鬼的出場種類和戲份太少⋯⋯其他都挺好
pride forever! 可惜主角一直没有quote傲慢与偏见

完全没想到是如此惬意又细腻的片子。我理解Noah理解Howie理解岛上的每一个人，就好像理解自己那样，所以感动、快乐和一些忧伤都丝丝入扣。如果说开去的话，05年的《断背山》还因为非主流的同志议题拿不到奥斯卡BP，短短十几年过去，美式同志片已经发展到如入无人之境，社会确实在进步啊。
怀念童年的儿童电影，如今40岁的我看到那些老家伙的时候还是有点感动的，希望现在的孩子看了这部依然能有幸福感。
比尔·默瑞出现时，眼泪差不点没下来！他已经72了……
还是太偏向小孩子看的风格了，后面的大boss也是太弱了
I'm like Howie without meeting Noah or Charlie....

少儿剧开篇，看来更适合家庭观看……建议15周岁以下，适合暑期档。吸收了老版本《捉鬼敢死队》元素，再现成了儿童版。
近些年来的发展，当然除开一些地区的持续倒退，同性议题本身也足够明显得向着多元化发展，并且亚裔角色作为主要内容的题材，意义更是具有节点性，肉眼可见的涉猎内容的多态性，也更加对于未来的电影生态充满好奇，当然没有说某些地区。
場景、燈光、攝影、道具(除了後面那倆狗)都很棒。能以這樣的形式紀念也很不錯。劇情和音樂俗套中庸。
满脑子都是大炳的声音在回荡：赵妈需要帮忙吗，最后是一群T把火给灭了，滴答答滴答答，阿碰我已经和你上过四次了……
One of the best gay cliche but inspiring movie.
怀旧向电影，结尾拍成《哈利·波特与火焰杯》闪回咒了~
