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!
当然这是一个勇敢男孩的自我救赎的故事，问题是这种技法用在这样的囚禁类型片中与感情的烘托又有点显得格格不入。另外导演的配乐太烂了。。。
2分。低成本cult片，基本上是一个通灵男孩反杀变态杀手的故事，其实血腥场景倒不是很多，也没有多么惊悚恐怖。看了一下这导演之前也拍了不少类似题材的，还是《奇异博士》的导演。伊桑霍克几乎全程没露脸，结尾终于露了一半还被反杀了。
The phone is as a medium again keeping in touch with another world
《打死大反派》之《灵界电话指导》，小孩们拉个腾讯会议的话，男主是不是能更早逃出来？
7.1分左右。
掳童犯到底为嘛绑小孩杀小孩，结尾也不说一下。剧情有些闪断，前面妹妹刚拿石头跟校霸打了一架还被踢了一脸血，后一镜头啥事没有。
演技很怪，人物很怪，剧情也很怪，那些人的想法我也看不懂。。。。
妹妹靠梦境一遍遍寻找藏匿处，哥哥靠电话一通通汇聚能量。
有点东西，比预想的好看 。烂片看多了全靠这种隔三差五找到的创意精致的小格局电影来调剂。同类型之前有一个《八四年夏天》也还不错，都可以吊打小丑回魂几条街。就是伊桑霍克这两年老接这种神神叨叨的角色，这还怎么拍爱在4…
凶手是伊森霍克演的，完全没看出来
说实在真没觉得好在哪里了。原本还对伊桑霍克的表演有所期待，谁知道看了一部以男孩为主角的带点惊悚带点灵异味精的青春成长片。
超自然灵异与悬疑犯罪拼接的创意不错，可惜拍得不温不火。作为本片的破局关键，地下室墙上那部老旧黑色电话成为链接阴阳两界的通讯工具，在死去孩子的协力帮助下，主角得以依靠亡者提供的信息一步步开展逃生计划。只能算是中规中矩的商业恐怖片，完全可以执行地更好，节奏过于平缓，叙事几无波折，剧情简单到没有任何反转与诡计，密室逃脱的过程也因为直给的线索丧失了紧张感，伊桑·霍克居然演了一个毫无魅力的变态反派，直接拉低整部片子的格调。“总有一天你得为自己挺身而出，而那一天就是今天。”纵使身陷绝境也要奋起反抗，无论如何都不要放弃生的希望，恐怖片外壳下，内核其实还是青少年在面对压力和恐惧后获得成长的故事。电影无论背景还是各种元素都很有斯蒂芬·金小说的味道，小镇、气球、面具怪人、黄色雨衣，确实赤裸裸地致敬《小丑回魂》。
真的又蠢又无聊。构建一个完全的空壳的假兮兮背景然后就演自己的故事搁那自说自话。别来搞臭“恐怖”“悬疑”“超自然”题材好吗。一个悬疑电影故事的推动纯靠导演想干嘛就干嘛。至于为什么无需解释因为就是这样。holy shit
Surprisingly Good 小男孩没有犯蠢 只是不懂伊桑霍克为什么要接这个戏 戏份少就算了 还不露脸 只露肚皮🙄
男主的颜，我简直享受至极！细长眸卷发薄唇高挺鼻梁，微微皱起的眉头～就差一副眼镜了！难得这么符合我审美的男性出现～很享受！不知道他爱不爱机车摇滚和白万，还有野格与白洲……
上映前被吹得太过，实际就是一部普通的B级片。被绑架前的文戏太冗长，妹妹线有头无尾，对其能力毫无解释，我的大Ethan上了海报首页，戏份却少得可怜，总的来说差强人意。
会道歉的父亲形象好罕见，或许也只能在电影里见一见了。
始终认为恐怖片导演的自我修养应该是：要么相信科学，要么相信鬼神。两种信仰都不肯撒手叫人格分裂。很希望跟导演和编剧当面对质，你们到底信什么？糊弄观众是不行的，两头都不讨好。如果定义为高智商犯罪，显然信科学的观众不会买“托梦”的账：警察办案叫小女孩躺床上多做梦就可以，门牌号都可以梦得一清二楚，再搜罗线索太多余；如果鬼魂可以教小男孩打败掳童狂魔，用“黑色电话”以及加一些“密室逃脱”这种逻辑推理向情节同样显得毫无必要，鬼魂跟精神变态斗法，有点像“奥特曼大战哥斯拉”，是不同次元鬼扯的黑色喜剧，信鬼怪的人肯定不信鬼怪居然斗不过“麻瓜”。两套房子两种信仰，一套用来认认真真虐童，另一套用来招魂，很难不让人翻白眼。但感情线发展得很好，父亲不争气，两个孩子相依为命，最后的大团圆显得很治愈，三颗星都给兄妹大团圆。
很普通的恐怖片，更加写实版的小丑回魂，很正能量，也不是太恐怖，节奏还特快
倒也没有很恐怖。。。小男主让我幻视好多人😂
