Life Is Beautiful (or La vita è bella in the original Italian) is a 1997 Italian tragicomedy film about The Holocaust written and directed by Roberto Benigni, who also stars.The first half of the film contains elements of the Romantic Comedy, featuring a young Italian Jew named Guido Orefice (Benigni) planning to set up his own bookstore, working as a waiter, and trying his best to romance Dora (Nicoletta Braschi), a young Christian schoolteacher who comes from a much richer family, while living with his uncle. Several years pass, and the two have a son, but become estranged from the rich relatives: however, they begin to reconcile.Nevertheless, the second half of the film takes a turn for the dark: Guido, his uncle Eliseo and his son Giosuè are taken to a concentration camp. His wife chooses to be deported with her family but is separated at a different part of the camp. Giosuè is hidden from the Nazis and Guido tries his very best to keep the actual darkness of the camp from his son.The film won three Academy Awards: Best Actor for Benigni, Best Foreign Language Film and Best Original Dramatic Score. In reaction to the second win, Benigni was so excited that he climbed over the seats of the Academy members in front of him and bunny-hopped up to the stage to claim the award. (See it here. That's Sophia Loren presenting.) | |

Heroic BSoD: Guido takes a sleeping Giosuè through the camp, only to find what appears to be a pile of bodies, partially concealed by darkness and mist. Dora has one too when she realies that the Nazis don't send kids and elderly people to work because they kill them all through the gas chambers. She becomes paralyzed fearing that Giosuè might one day be killed or even that he's already dead. | |

Punch-Clock Villain: Dr. Lessing's work as a concentration camp doctor. He's not a sadistic man and doesn't seem to harbor any particular hatred for the camp inmates; he simply sees his role as a job and probably as a national service duty. | |

Guile Hero | |
| Life Is Beautiful / int_2a02e5c9 | comment |
Guile Hero: Guido. Some of his little tricks include: fooling a customer at a restaurant into ordering exactly what Doctor Lessing had ordered, as Lessing was too preoccupied with his riddle to even touch his food, allowing the customer to immediately get his meal, and making Dora pray for Guido to get a new hat just as the man Guido stayed with came and switched his hat with Guido's, as Guido had switched them earlier. Becomes deadly serious at the camp - probably the most notable moment being when Giosuè absent-mindedly lets slip a "grazie" when he's pretending to be a German child. This is overheard by a Nazi, who goes to report it, only to return and find that Guido's hurriedly taught all the German children to say it, providing a cover story for how Giosuè knows the word. | |

Secret Message Wink: Right after Guido is caught by guards, he catches the eye of Giosue, who's hiding, and winks with a smile to say not to worry about him, even though he himself is well aware of his fate. Giosue winks back. Guido doesn't make it, but Giosue's innocence stays intact. | |

Evil All Along | |
| Life Is Beautiful / int_4aa98555 | comment |
Evil All Along: Played with - Dr. Lessing is introduced as a humble visiting German doctor during the first half of the film and largely disappears after a couple of scenes. But not before befriending Guido. Guido later meets him as a doctor at the concentration camp, and seeing Guido gives him an unfortunate reminder the "untermenschen" around him are human beings. He's clearly ashamed of himself, but seems in no hurry to quit. | |

False Reassurance: During the translation scene the German guard claims that nothing bad will happen to those who will follow the rules. It's obviously a lie since in real life the Nazis killed the prisoners once they could not work anymore and to cover the evidence of their crimes which they do at the movie's end. | |

Token Good Teammate: Dr Lessing appears to be the only non-cruel member of the concentration camp's staff. He doesn't take pleasure in what he does and seems quite remoursefoul for his actions. He still does nothing to help Guido and his family to get out of the camp since his obsession for riddles is revealed to be stronger than him though it's possible that he was going through a mental breakdown for the atrocities he saw (and probably took partecipation in, albeit likely unwilling) and riddles are the only thing who could distract him. | |

First Law of Tragicomedies: Surprisingly averted or at least played with. While the second half of this film is darker than the first and much more serious, it never truly loses the spirit of the humor involved - its handling of this is probably why it won many awards. Rare is the movie that can continue to make you laugh and keep up the seriousness of The Holocaust. | |

Oh, Crap!: Many German Nazi officers and their children are visiting the concentration camp, so Guido, who is working as a waiter for the dinner, smuggles Giosuè in with the kids so he can have a real meal. But then Giosuè lets slip a "Grazie": an Italian word that none of the German kids would say. This is the first time in the entire movie that Guido has shown actual fear. | |

| Life Is Beautiful / int_c3c18143 | comment |
Hope Spot: In the prison camp, Guido meets Doctor Lessing again, who looks visibly shaken seeing his friend there and asks to meet him later. Guido tries to find an opportunity to tell him about his wife and son in the hopes of somehow getting one or both out, but when they manage to talk properly, he finds out that the only reason Doctor Lessing tried to talk to him again was to consult in another riddle (and is possibly suffering Sanity Slippage from what he's doing, and is using the single-minded focus on a riddle to keep going). Later it turns out that it's actually a subversion, as the riddle in question is a colorful metaphor meant to covertly give Guido an idea of how to get his family out of the camp. | |

Refuge in Audacity | |
| Life Is Beautiful / int_d45c0b86 | comment |
Refuge in Audacity: In a real life example, Roberto Benigni made a nominal comedy about The Holocaust, the supreme film artistic challenge that got him hailed as a master filmmaker for doing something even Charlie Chaplin would never have dared. This is pretty much the reason Guido gets away with half the stuff he pulls, ranging from his repeated run-ins with Dora to announcing over the intercom system of a concentration camp. | |
