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!
“tonight we honor what was lost，but we also commemorate what we found”
就是幾年前看過這個令我一發不可收拾的愛上歌劇！
CFA！！！世界上最好的音乐剧！！！本岛民热泪盈眶！！！
调度好厉害。虽然说主题立意远大于故事本身，但一个半小时我还是从头哭到尾。喜欢用圣经交流，加油站默哀，消防员妈妈和凌晨四点做德餐这几个片段！可能因为时长和故事基调，一些问题讨论得浅尝辄止。
这真的是我看过现场调度最牛逼的剧了。
太喜欢了………编排太牛了编曲也都好喜欢 太好看了点………太喜欢了😭
u1s1，4k大屏比电脑屏舒服太多🚬
看之前甚至不知道这是一部关于911的歌舞剧，前面还在想怎么会有这么奇怪的故事设定（籍籍无名的小镇突然迎来大量飞机和数千名旅客），反应过来后十分佩服这个“在别处”的视角。
演员业务能力都好强 人道主义精神里巧妙的渗透着美国精神
因为一种“我想做点什么”的朴素心情伸出的援手，在美国空域关闭的背景下发生。紧急状态下维持多元的自由国际主义童话，节奏很快，笑点很多，我看的时候却久久不能摆脱那种讽刺感，911啊911，在三十多分钟的时候，中止罢工的校车司机，带着非洲人到救世军营地，非洲人不肯下车，语言不通，校车司机看到对方捧着圣经，圣经的章节编号总是一样的，“看，腓利比书4：6”，Be anxious for nothing。“我们就是这样开始说起了同样的语言”。啊。还是随之泪目了。以及美国第一位女机长，在讲述自己成长的漫长故事之后，说我最爱的被用作炸弹，啊。我知道这只是stop the world 的小岛呼告，但我想世界本该如此。
在现在这个时刻，太需要这部音乐剧了。小镇人民敞开大门接纳受911事件影响的一架架飞机，女性男性同性恋、少数族裔、不同信仰的乘客一齐来到了小镇上，这一刻不再有性别与人种之分，面对突如其来的恐怖袭击，他们一同祈祷默哀，人们守望相助和惺惺相惜的状态太治愈人心了。现在世界正在发生剧变，宅生存成了普遍状态，可如果连人心都被锁进了幽闭空间，就挺绝望的。一人分饰多角的表演形式完美契合全剧的主题表达，而其中的个体故事也很有代表性，女机长唱的Me and the sky让人感动。小细节：演员在扮演汽车上的乘客时，身体会保持小幅度的晃动，非常贴近真实，好棒。不过一份分饰多角也会带来一个问题就是人物往往需要用念白的方式来解释自己的身份，剧中也有一段是人物发生争吵，但就匆匆带过了，没有正面解决，有点在意。
上次看CFA还是疫情前，彼时世界仍是一体，地球仍似甘德镇。在充满猜疑与撕裂的当下，人类守望相助、携手共进的故事更显珍贵
救援物资里提前考虑到女性用品；语言不通就让我们用圣经来传达
911 20周年纪念， 同名百老汇托尼奖音乐剧电影版，诙谐与感动充斥于歌词与音乐中。。。(*￣︶￣)
The island Newfoundland,the town Gander, we honor what we lost but also commemorate what we found.
特殊时期来看这种民间自发互助还是挺感动的。临结尾的创伤后遗以及十年后的生活还得继续，只愿不要歧视和平共处吧！
年度最佳！超五星超五星超五星！！！节奏！调度！百老汇演员的专业素养！！！看到返美那段音乐可太共情了！！！
太敬业了，一人饰演几个角色还那么好看，瞬间切换，好想现场看一次百老汇的表演！剧情也很好，从小处着手，面对危难人类的团结一致，真的很令人动容！
9.11二十周年，当初岛上停留的旅客，机组成员和原住民给彼此带来的温暖延续到了现在，女机长的部分全剧最佳。愿战争远离我们，和平不易。
没那么好诶 但很cool 看的时候俄罗斯正在接收世界各地的恶意 蛮讽刺的
