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!
Why can't you stay 29
这么好的音乐应该在大银幕畅响，加菲演得真好！
Bang! You're dead, what can you do?
林-曼努尔·米兰达确实是有才，这个电影我感触太多了，Jonathan Larson，Respect.
LMM首次做導演能有這個水平，他真的很有才華。這電影形式眼前一亮，展現musical行業的艱難，並致敬了LMM的知音Johnathan Larson。Broadway充滿有才華的演員，但有幾個能以此為生，感謝這些堅持夢想的人們❤️
p.s. 加菲，你还有多少惊喜是朕不知道的！
百老汇音乐剧这玩意应该是西方戏剧文化的衍变产物，看不懂，不过豆瓣分数一直都超高，大概有一些流行的附魅因素。
贫瘠地燃烧，燃烧到贫瘠。电影一般，内核动人，一流的故事、二流的剧本、三流的制作。很Beatnik，很社畜关怀，依靠free writing和improvising的创作完全解构世界的隐喻和意义、摆脱了象征秩序的压迫，叫嚣出最原始最纯粹的自我表达。我们为什么要玩火？当一败涂地的现实与热爱共存，人就获得了去挣扎去燃烧的所有动力。
8.2分！相当棒的音乐歌舞传记片，导演功底很棒，很难相信这是导演处女作，用画面来讲述整个故事，娓娓道来，叙事节奏相当出色，画面相当有电影感，连续且壮阔，还有多个画面的连续剪辑，同时辅以动人心弦的音乐演唱，开场的音乐剧和过去的故事两条线并行前进，相当有吸引力！
【3.0】观影最大的障碍在于，这个传记片主人公的心路历程和生平事迹于我而言毫无吸引力，所以LMM给再多花哨的歌舞剧表演形式也是白费力气。
能又唱又跳又表演的人都很酷 属于那种看一遍能浪漫一辈子的故事 加菲很棒 我心中2021的影帝 不要泄气 继续努力 希望每一个疯子的故事都能被展现出来 诱发更多精彩的疯子
谁都是曾经绚烂缤纷热情洋溢和这个世界碰撞燃烧着，但也会流于平淡失去光泽。
同意热评说的，作为音乐电影没有出彩的音乐真的是很致命的问题/
3.5。後半段真正意義上擺脫了音樂劇形式的束縛，開始了真正的影視化改編。但此處的「真正」也僅指分鏡層面，畢竟對彼時政治氛圍和社會環境的描摹極為不足，導致本就不多的現實感「折上加折」。雖然以創作者個體視角切入本身並無問題，只是在現在這個年代用小切口談《吉屋出租》，多少有些浪費題材了。
这部电影没有全然采用那一套常规的“有志者事竟成”理论，相反，它指出了一个艺术家想要被认同是异常艰难的，他需要付出巨大代价，付出时间、金钱、爱情，最后还可能输给命运。电影对梦想的质问也充满哲学寓意：究竟是因为热爱，还是惧怕？我想这是一种习惯，更是一种不甘。“梦想”与“自由”听起来都是遥不可及的概念，但是你努力的每一天，可能都是走向成功日的倒数。
30岁生日第一天看也太巧合了 前面20分钟一直想要呐喊谁在偷拍我的生活 然而后面的成功部分就与我无关了呵呵呵呵 总之是一个很棒的传记作品，就算是音乐剧形式也并不难接受，而且确实和人物很贴合
A musical about making a musical
LMM的音乐和灵感真的是赶上这个时代了，幸事啊，算是writer里面混的头一份了
用处理舞台剧的手法来拍电影，连带着加菲也用夸张式的舞台剧状态来表演，能感受到努力但也觉得有些用力过猛，基本也是全片观感的缩影。剧中剧的模式其实有些节奏上的割裂，尤其在于主线落脚点找不准状况下；稍微了解一下背景能被Jonathan的事迹打动，但片子内呈现的效果就很cliché了。
相较电影似乎更应该被称作数字化音乐剧，然而毕竟是不同的艺术方式，在音乐剧中时髦的东西说实话早已经是影视中的普及技巧；安德鲁演得好棒。
