Life is beautiful and so is this movie

Rating: 10/10 (12 September 2013)

The Holocaust has been always cited as one of the biggest examples of human tragedy as many lost their lives at the hands of the Nazis. Schindler's list takes the cake as the most true portrayal of the atrocity, yet this movie captures those horrors yet at the same time, gives people hope that some have survived. Roberto Benigni, the comic genius that he is, helps establish light in a dark time with his vivid imagination of a game to shield his son from such horrors (they do show dead bodies in one scene, but not as bad as Schindler's List). Even before the experience do we get a taste of Benigni's invention to create hysterical comedy, even in the most inappropriate of times. All in all a wonderful movie
