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!
其实剧本一般，但印度有这个意识还是不容易，加一星
没有那么多歌舞，叙事剧情更加流畅，配色和运镜很舒服，居然是真人真事改编，女主太帅了！！！
（有一说一，女主真的好美）
女主很美加一星，影片本身比较失望，非一般的冗长。
冲着大女主的噱头去看的，宝莱坞电影太过理想化反而非常不真实，花了四次才把后1/3看完，MY合法化很割裂，唯有女主颜值还行
层次分明，高潮迭起，一路贵人，整个剧情毫无坎坷且一马平川的顺利，虽然非常理想化，但也侧面表达了黑玫瑰们对自由和尊严的极度渴望。大女主人设演绎的真好，霸气又妩媚，白天鹅当之无愧。
似传记也似小说
在镣铐下尊严而自由地活着立意可以，某些情节如牺牲利用小男友也有弧光闪现，Alia的表现也自然灵气，这些种种让我觉得本片原可以描绘出一个复杂玲珑的灰色人物，但SLB就是能把他的所有女主都拧巴成伟大光明正义模范神的形象，现实主义意识为零，画面依旧是假而空的雕饰，表达全靠台词，至今都没学会把影像哪怕和他自己那堆空话建立联结，看不下去了…
性合法 我还是不能理解 她生在那个环境 回不去的家 可以理解她的诉求 大环境不同 对于性服务是否提倡合法真的不敢苟同
总体还不错，可以看看的
题材和人物塑造角度，真不错，很佩服印度有这样的人物和影视作品，但从作品本身来看，对社会丑陋和女性苦难遭遇没有更深刻反映——也许默认印度这些问题非常严峻，所以从我们观看角度，故事后半部分逻辑完全无法理解。但总体是个好作品，推荐。
这是一部传记类的电影，但整部电影给人的感觉就是女儿当自强，大女主的爽剧。
失望。SLB的片子怎么还是流于形式和画面啊，十年前拍的和现在拍的根本没有区别，只会喊口号、毫无力量的剧本太鸡肋了。SLB真的应该给自己这个靠谱的美术摄影团队磕三个响头。总是在重复一些几十年前印度电影就拍过的东西，无语，请不要assume观众有健忘症或者没看过老片。（小声ky：看的时候一直在想象tabu演女主的样子。
非常的理想化，非常的不现实，属于一种意识层面上的突破，虽然拍摄手法，演员表演都还可以，但我很不赞同电影对卖淫合法化的表达。
典型的好莱坞式叙事。影片的意识形态我持保留意见，接收作为妓女的事实是前提，但是接下来应该反抗，而不是将暴力合理化。大女主的叙事掩盖了残酷的底层现实。
也不算是女性主义，中间有各种逻辑不通，但还是好看。
电影既保持了印度特色，又找到了独特的叙事切入点，不拖泥带水，直切主题。近几年，印度女性主义电影层出不穷，而且佳作频生，想想也是跟世界大环境有关吧。
最被打動的一幕，女主坐在車裡，拿著小男朋友的手摸自己的頭，摸著摸著就哭了，多久沒被好好疼惜。
真人真事改编。大女主，甘古拜，我女神！
印度电影总是两个半小时以上，没有强烈的戏剧冲突很难让人看下去。剧情上有些顺拐，咋就能那么顺，为了女权而女权？人物刻画上也缺乏立体度，如果能看到一些女主人设的不完美则更容易让人信服。
