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!
戏如人生 人生如戏
前半段很好笑，但是后半段有很多没看懂，人们总是在窥视自己嘴里说的看不起的人的言行举止，但是不知道这种窥视源于渴望还是轻蔑，坐等一个长影评。西班牙语感觉不难，大部分都听懂了
把戏剧拍成电影，就应该是这个样子。
细节挺有意思的 但故事一直缺乏真正的进展 女儿喜欢的透明指甲油 天上的鲸鱼云 谅解时候反着抽烟 爆发之后又道歉 自杀女儿的母亲接着道歉 “强制的善意跟恶没区别”
故事很简单，三个主演的精湛演出撑起了空洞的故事内核，对人心的刻画是值得称道的，但还是略显轻飘。
但凡觉得精彩的，都是来自演员们的表演。剧本做的也挺工整和诡异，这个诡异是个双标。但的确是真诡异。潘潘更适合拿这个封后吧。
伏笔设置还挺巧妙的，不过影片节奏挺拉胯....还好有三位主演精彩的表演
拍得略显松散，但讽刺意味好足，演员也给电影加了很多分
2022.06.17 // 2022.06.19 个人原因打五星。不然四星。😛
其实中间绝大多数情节都是没有惊喜的，一直到导演跟影帝在死亡面前的对视。整部下来，我站佩内洛普。
西班牙电影的特点就是，从来不按套路出牌。这俩男人真的有够自恋的，都表演欲极强，而且自信满满。但作为电影来讲，还是太戏剧了。台词太密，看着就累。
戏精导演遇上戏精演员，戏里戏外狗血值拉满，还是蛮有趣的。其中不乏一些关于当下电影圈非常幽默、有趣的观察。
这电影真的好笑，比《杰出公民》还要冷幽默，所以双男主的电影真实排练状态是这样的才正常嘛
影片里戏中戏的故事原型，出自《杰出公民》主角的口述故事。
预算高了，形式好了，但是结束方式喜欢不起来
本着想去看看西班牙可惜都在室内 用排演影片的过程讲故事又全部在室内有点打瞌睡了😪
【3星半】把“论演员的自我修养”给搬上了大银幕，几乎就是在看三位演员的对戏和很有讲究的镜头构图了，也有几个很诙谐的点：一百块钱下赌，相互腹黑飙戏，能载入“影史”的绞碎奖杯名场面（福茂和巴贝拉在提刀来的路上了）。
尾巴有点垮，但真的好好玩！我喜欢！我爱佩内洛普！
能现场看一定很欢乐，最近看的西班牙电影从来没让我失望，西语听起来也感觉越来越舒服了
很硬核很正統的那種日本片，在這個形式下也拍得很好，能感覺到某種在父系社會中，各人都很用力去做事的那種能量與某種體悟，覺得這種片子好像只會愈來愈少，還能看到真好。
