This is a beautiful and sad film

Rating: 10/10 (11 April 2020)

I have seen this film at least a dozen times and each time I am carried away to the dreams of a small boy to come true and we can join his journey. The Italian language (it is subtitled) adds to the film's beauty and music, the characters are so real you can almost smell them. I am absorbed into this film each time I watch it, so that when it is over, I am shocked into the realisation that I haven't actually been anywhere except right there, in my seat. I am not a huge "art house" film fan or indeed enjoy subtitled films but "Life is Beautiful" is a gem and is worth seeing again and again.
