Life is beautiful is really a very touching cum funny movie. Miss Chan show it to us last week. Its about a Jews man trying to save his son and wife at the concentration camp(?). At the first part of the movie the man is seen trying to win the hand of the woman he loved, 'Princess', but unfortunately, she is engaged to someone else she did not really love. So many funny things happened while the man went ahead and win her heart and finally 'stole' the woman during the day when she was getting married at a restuarant he is working in. Years later, he had a son and at that time, He, his son and uncle are captured to the camp. At first, there is not a need for his wife to go to the camp as she is not a Jews but because of her loves for both her husband and son, she begged the German soldier to let her go and he did. In the camp, as the man wanted to protect his son and not let him learn the truth that they are in trouble, he lied to him that they are going to a vacation and all the hard works the man had done, was changed into games that they have to play to earn points to win a tanker. In the end, when the war is going to an end, the german soldiers still wanted to kill every Jews in the gas chamber. The man hide his son and told him to wait for him and if he did not come back, the son was to come out only if they are no one outside. Then he went to find his wife but was spotted and killed by a soldier. Then, morning came and the boy is saved by a Amerian soldier in a tanker so in the end he did 'win' a tanker and it turns out that the mother did not die at all, so they reunite. Actually I think that the man's death is caused by the wife as if she did not come to the camp, the man will not go and find her and he will not be killed. So sad... But it is indeed a excellant movie that is worth to be seen agian and I wanna go borrow it from Miss Chan or buy one if there is.
