Life Is Beautiful, is a movie directed by Roberto Benigni, set in 1940's Italy. The entire movie is in Italian, so you will need subtitles to enjoy it. Roberto Benigni is also the main character of this movie. I thought the movie had a very powerful meaning, for a number of reasons. The main characters were Jews, in Nazi-occupied Italy. The use of comedy to explain the horrors of a concentration camp was done very well. The main character uses funny comedy to shield his son from the horrors of what is actually happening. I really enjoyed the way this movie was created, and I thought it was really interesting. Overall, the movie was very educational and eye opening, as well as comedic and entertaining.
