Dove Review

Life is Beautiful was amazing! The subtitles were quickly overtaken by the power of the story. It made me laugh, and almost cry (hey, I’m a guy with appearances to maintain). For Benigni to flawlessly weave comedy and tragedy was no easy task, but he pulled it off. I know there are some people who think it was wrong to inject humor into a story about the Holocaust. Roberto Benigni did not trivialize Hitler’s evil deeds. Indeed, he demonstrated how far a father is willing to go for the son he loves.
