Guido Orefice protects his child from the atrocities of the Holocaust through elegant charades

Rating: 10/10 (4 April 1999)

This is the greatest movie of all time. The actors and actresses were brilliant, in my opinion Benigni should have brought home the best picture award on Oscar night. Benigni brings his own personal acting talents to the screen in this fantastic piece of work. I disagree with peoples' opinions about Guido, Benigni's character, spinning the web of deceit for protecting his child, as lying. I think, if I were with my son in a concentration camp, that I'd protect his emotions at all costs.
