This may be one of the best films ever made. I've never seen a movie with such a balance of hysterical comedy and serious drama. Roberto Benigni totally deserved his Oscars. People on this ps have said such positive things about him and this film. Mr. Benigni had a lot of guts to make this film, and there's not another film like it. He handled both the comedy and drama aspects beautifully. I loved the beautiful cinematography, scenery, and the characters. This movie is magnificent in every way. Don't miss.

Absolute 5/5 stars. Robert benigni truly shows what it means to be human. Even in the midst of tragedy and hardship Benigni masterfully crafts a beautifully film about beauty through tragedy. What makes this film so unique is that it not only explores the tragic elements of WW2, but also the moments of comedy that we experience in every day life. Life isnt always sad or joyful, sometimes,its both. We're all human, we laugh, we cry, we sing, and we dance but most importantly of all, we are alive.

This is one of my favorite films. My mother & I, always reminisce about its
propensity to empower people in dark and depressing times. It's somewhat
similar to "Schindler's List", but makes a lighthearted gesture about WWI
events taking place.
