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!
刚开始以为是一部悲情片，但影片的内容一直在跟着主角变换，亲情，友情，爱情，直到无悲无喜，皆是过客，只有自己的自由才是人生的归宿。配乐好评。
看过关于年轻人背包旅行的，中年人寻找自我的，如今第一次看到老年人在经历破碎人生后上路游荡的…觉得没有什么做作，非常的悲伤和真实。当你穷了一生努力过得体面，到最后发现维持体面反而才是最不重要的，还有什么值得的呢？于是，游荡吧。
周末看了两遍。美国中西部，亚利桑那，内华达，新墨西哥，奇迹一样的地方，美不足以形容。
有过背包客的经历，在旅行途中会碰到形形色色的人，交织成了一段段故事。片子最打动的我的就是女主被迫踏上旅途面对新事物的那份心境，随性、淡然。Happy new year，献给不得不上路的人。
寄蜉蝣于天地，渺沧海之一粟。吾生之须臾，羡长江之无穷。挟飞仙以遨游，抱明月而长终。
“See you down the road.”
被经济潮流和时代大势抛弃的人们，各自上路，游荡，几乎像一个个孤胆游侠，穿梭在城市的衰老中，或者说这个国家的的荒凉与温柔中获得了自由。难以置信，赵婷居然担任了编剧，导演和剪辑的工作，完成度如此高，作品呈现如此自然舒服。
倔强与孤独，逃离人生的无意义，让自己始终保持游荡/遇见/寻找/放纵，沉浸在自然与无为中，大概就是最自由的样子。
写到这里，我蓦地想到《兰亭集序》中一段话，虽意不相通，然情可共，附于此：“向之所欣，俯仰之间，已为陈迹，犹不能不以之兴怀，况修短随化，终期于尽！”
灰蓝色的群山边缘，你总能看见一抹将逝的残阳。夕阳西下，但Fern并不是断肠人。萧瑟的生活中，她依然坚守心中最后的一片浪漫与诗意。
当Swankie讲起她难忘的旅途、那些在地球某个角落里一直发生着的「奇观」，她整个人都在发光——“就算在那一刻死去也此生无憾了”——生命之光。相比之下，《无依之地》比《骑士》更加「散文化」，轻叙事，着力于描摹状态和表达情绪。很多动人瞬间唤起心中的流浪之魂。
一场漫长的告别以回到原点作为结束…导演很文艺情怀地展现一群流浪人的孤独故事，MCD的表演一如既往地独撑大局，配乐长镜头很出色…毫无波澜和高潮的文艺片，辛劳一生无福享乐，失去挚爱人生无望，一群素不相识的陌生人互相取暖，为孤独的灵魂披上暖心的棉袄…never say final goodbye…
希望每个人都文化自信
然而电影本身用诗意的镜头与配乐让流浪这个行为变成了某种天涯沦落而并不仅仅是窘迫，主角也没有自怨自艾强行加入令人反感的尴尬戏份，这就已经很好了。
看得好绝望，一个人、一帮人跟整个社会的抗争。前段时间看到一个数据，80、90年代出生的人，是00、10年代出生的人的整整两倍，想要依赖社保基本是行不通的……
【2.5】世界与自然自有其能量蕴生，赵婷能捕捉到那些Magic Hour并加以调和入巡视众生的目光里，自然证明她还是敏锐的，却和内容并不紧密。全片着力均匀，因而缺乏深入和关键一击，始终诉说着陈词滥调。现在已经没有兴趣再肯定这般的电影了。
有选择的人去拍没选择的人并冠以浪漫的名义。就会怎么看都有些别扭。
北美最高排名：6
这里的人不好好道别，这里的人说I'll see you down the road.路上有什么呢？空旷静寂，还有永恒的孤独。但“会车”或“宿营”的时候，也总有片刻花火。对于现在的我来说还是太平淡了，3.5吧。仙女棒里的“新年快乐”至美。十四行诗读得就远不如抖森。
3.5，面前旷荡广袤的，不是无依之地，而就是人生啊。核心提取出来也蛮鸡汤的，刚开始还以为是比较严肃的社会议题，后半段一路滑到了“和爱的人总会遇见”这个调性，重回工厂也变成了抒情段落，就还挺奇怪的。可能会朝迈克·李的方向发展？
