Benigni's Tragicomic Tale is Brilliant and Touching

Rating: Null/10 (18 February 1999)

This is a movie the likes of which, are extremely rare. Benigni has created a movie that touches the heart and moves the soul. This film which is like two movies in one, should be seen by all those who are old enough to understand it. The first part about a man and his love for a women is funny and romantic. But, it is the second part which really hits you. About a man and his love for his son. What he did for him even as he was facing certain doom brought tears to the eyes of everyone in the theatre. Roberto Benigni is like Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton rolled into one brilliant person. Bring some tissues folks. Life really is beautiful. 5 stars ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
