152-06 The movie Life if Beautiful by Roberto Benigni addresses how love between people can remain strong even through the most horrible of events. The movie takes a very interesting approach on how a father can bring comedy and light to the events of the Holocaust to maintain his son’s happiness. I personally thought this movie was excellent because it challenged the way that most people would want to think about the Holocaust. It is hard to bring an element of comedy to these events but Life is Beautiful
