About this product
Product Information
Conjuring keys and hats out of thin air, Guido (Roberto Benigni), a clever Jewish-Italian waiter, successfully courts Dora (Nicoletta Braschi), a beautiful local woman, in Fascist pre-WWII Italy. His life, however, is turned upside down a few years later when he, Dora, and their young son, Giosue (Giorgio Cantarini), are sent to a Nazi concentration camp. Refusing to give up hope, Guido tries to protect his son's innocence by pretending that their imprisonment is just an elaborate game, with the grand prize being a tank.<BR>For years the box-office champ in Italy and the country's most beloved slapstick comic, the Chaplinesque Benigni took a huge risk with LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL. Many people worried that the film would be as offensive as plopping a cartoon character in Auschwitz. (A similar work--THE DAY THE CLOWN CRIED, a Jerry Lewis film about a comedian in a concentration camp--turned out to be a disaster two decades earlier.) Although LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL did provoke some controversy, many people found the film to be a poignant, tragicomic story that profoundly reaffirmed the humanity of concentration camp victims. The film became the highest grossing foreign language film in the U.S. and established Benigni as an international star.

Reviews
Premiere - ...[Benigni] puts a serious spin on his comic genius..., Entertainment Weekly - ...[Benigni] succeeds, to an extraordinary degree, in reviving the neo-Technicolor lushness and affectionate screwball rhythms of postwar Hollywood....A delicate romance spiked with antifascist farce..., New York Times - ...Mr. Benigni effectively creates a situation in which comedy is courage. And he draws from this an unpretentious, enormously likable film that plays with history both seriously and mischievously..., Sight and Sound - ...[A] magnificent film....Real emotional strength...

- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseFragile item wrapped impeccably so it arrived in one piece. Royal Mail failed delivery for no good reason wasting my Saturday (gave me a 8.49-11.49 slot and then eventually at 3.10 said “property inaccessible” ie they lied and I’m furious with them for wasting my weekend as their app wouldn’t allow me to nominate a neighbour on Friday) but this is not the Seller’s fault. Item is beautiful and arrived in one piece. Thank youReply from: airglowfires- Feedback replied to by seller airglowfires.- Feedback replied to by seller airglowfires.Glad to hear the item arrived safely and sounds like it's gone to a good home - thank you for your lovely feedback. No idea what Royal Mail were playing at giving false expectations like that - annoying!
