A different film...but it works

Rating: 10/10 (18 April 1999)

This film is obviously much different than a film produced in the United States. I thought the sub-titles were going to be a problem, but I didn't mind. Much better than a bad voice over in my opinion.
As far as the movie itself, it is truly a masterpiece. Much better than all the other films nominated for best pick (it is in a tie with Pvt. Ryan in my opinion).
The main character Guido, shields his son from the horrors of a concentration camp by making it all seem like a game. Sad and funny at the same time.
