A very good comment

I think this review is very good. Thank you for forwarding it: This is a nearly perfect movie, a sad movie, just like a book I have read, "The Count of Monte Cristo", which is very wonderful and magical. It tells a story. A person's life, from life to death, what he has experienced, in that era, he can still face life optimistically and positively, which has given me a lot of positive energy. There are many classic sections in it, especially the section where the father coaxed his children. Although a long time has passed, it is still fresh in my memory. "This is just a game, and the prize is a big tank. In the end, he actually got the reward of a big tank." This is perhaps the most perfect and whitest lie that a father can fabricate for his children. Let our children live in the world of fairy tales! This is what they deserve, even if the reality is so cruel and unbearable.

Life Is Beautiful quotes

  • Giosué Orefice: [slowly reading signage on confectionery shopfront] "No Jews or dogs allowed".

    [turning to Guido]

    Giosué Orefice: Why aren't Jews or dogs allowed to go in?

    Guido: They just don't want Jews or dogs to go in. Everybody does what they want to, Joshua.

    [pointing at store ahead]

    Guido: There's a hardware store there. They don't let Spanish people or horses into his store.

    [pointing at another store]

    Guido: Further ahead, there's a drugstore. Yesterday, I was with a Chinese friend who had a kangaroo. I said, "May we?" "No, we don't want any Chinese or kangaroos here." They don't like them. What can I tell you?

    Giosué Orefice: We let everybody into our bookshop.

    Guido: No. From now on, we'll write it too. Is there anybody you don't like?

    Giosué Orefice: Spiders. What about you?

    Guido: [mock-seriously] I don't like Visigoths. Starting tomorrow we'll write: "No spiders and Visigoths allowed." I'm sick and tired of these Visigoths.

  • Guido: [being shipped to a concentration camp] You've never ridden on a train, have you? They're fantastic! Everybody stands up, close together, and there are no seats!

    Giosué Orefice: There aren't any seats?

    Guido: Seats? On a train? It's obvious you've never ridden one before! No, everybody's packed in, standing up. Look at this line to get on! Hey, we've got tickets, save room for us!
