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!
合格的类型片叙事节奏，至于现实，深圳早已不是奇迹之城，片中俯瞰下的白石洲也早已在“俯瞰下”荡然无存。
最大的主题“创业”因为某些原因清汤寡水，某些地方太想当然，这就不是奇迹，而是童话了。加上主力刻画兄妹情对配角团一笔带过，导致群像戏失败。
结局是喜闻乐见的齐欢笑，但是觉得那个啥发布会有点愣愣的呢。
真的很好看的一部影片！全程无尿点！有泪也有笑！有苦有甜！就是我们身边很多人的模样似的，被搬上了大荧幕！每个人的演技都在线！
一个整天劳苦挣钱的哥哥被杀了.....
虽然有些时候总感觉电影演的跑题了，但又觉得没跑题，谁说穷就一定没有快乐。每件事情叙述包括片段的裁剪是值得表扬的，题材并不是很吸引人，但电影整个叙述很完整。
很好的片子！！年度最佳预订！！易烊千玺那小子演得巨好！！！！啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊都给我去看！！！！
做好电影容易，做好人很难，现实中可遇不到这么多好人。
平民意识，底层互助社区，类型叙事，这片着实不错
四字弟弟的每部电影真的都有保证 加一星
这两年看过很多叙事大师的电影，这种现实主义的电影最好还是平静叙事的比较好，不要太刻意制造剧情冲突，太出戏了，也不要一会哭一会笑的，太刻意了，应该一路“现实”到底，努力而没有结果，那种最后飞黄腾达太假啦，换你，你信吗？简直就是意淫，悲剧收场才是人生的真相。
文牧野导演一如既往地稳！剧本扎实，节奏利落，人物群像圆润有棱角，鲜明到位。易烊千玺和哈林真的的共情能力太强了，我整个被代入进去了，有泪有笑！笨小孩也可以创造奇迹的，我信了！
应该是近几年最直击心灵的一个电影了，想说这些年恐怕也只有《我不是药神》能给人这种观感，发现是同一个导演。小女孩演的真好；电影里易烊千玺抱着的小bb女孩穿着袜子，和后面眼睛大大的小女孩表情无辜无辜的，都给人非常真实的感觉，尤其有小孩的更懂；那个拳击老哥，外形挺日本电车之狼的，这个反差说明导演会用人；连集装箱都被压扁的那一刻，恐怕连观众都彻底绝望了，先抑后扬的手法运用的非常不错，最后验收见老总估计所有观众都是跟着捏一把汗的恨不得叫老总直接签约。片子穿插了搞笑，温馨，接地气，煽情等各种元素而又不违和，每个配角都出彩，这片子本该是个大片，按照那些所谓票房冠军的对比。从春节出资源就压在硬盘里没动过观看的念头，今天无聊打开看了几分钟就停不下来。
看之前很期待，看之后感想很多，觉得每个人都不容易，世上没有奇迹，而我要创造奇迹。
看了让人想上班赚钱的电影哈哈哈 很适合春节看
整部电影看下来十分流畅，主题鲜明，节奏准确，表演到位。减一颗星，是因为少了一丝灵气。
没人能抵御这种底层小人物的温热，虽然对套路化的情节设计做到了比较完整舒适的呈现，但依然没有逃脱刻意煽情，取悦于初级观众的弊端。日韩的同类型电影，已经可以将情感融化在最日常表达中，而非单独拎一块出来彰显情感，这也是目前这类华语电影面临最重要也最需要解决的问题
努力总会发生奇迹的！奇迹就是属于奋力发光的每一个人！
文牧野再次从小人物的生活入手，用略带现实主义的手法塑造了一个奇迹。在这个功利至上的社会，每个人的初心尤为珍贵，而更为珍贵的是超越血缘亲情的那份友谊。众人拾柴火焰高，只要齐心协力，我们就可以相信奇迹！
