Life is truly beautiful

Rating: 10/10 (15 April 1999)

Bravo Roberto, This film reaches new heights in cinematic expression. Benigni's unique ability to reach out to the audience's hearts and minds through the talents of his writing, directing and acting is what makes this film the masterpiece it is. The other lead characters too, deserve high praise for their own invaluable contributions. It is not often that a director is able to combine elements of comedy and drama into a workable storyline. It is even rarer for this storyline to be able to convey emotion to the audience as well as involving the audience in the emotion of the film. This is a film that I will definitely pay to see again. This is cinema at its best.
ps - My favourite scene is the Tank scene at the end.
