When I first saw it, I thought the whole tone was lighthearted and humorous. Although it is also a war, the whole film is not bloody, brutal, crying, and painful~ He brought people a different World War II.
What "Life is Beautiful" brings is that in those cruel years, there were indeed corners where blood and tears could not fully spread. A great father turned cruel war into a game, let laughter replace fear, let hope come true in children, and let pure children live in inhuman environments without distorting their minds because of terrible concentration camps. That's what makes life beautiful...
even the scene where the hero (the little boy's father) is murdered. When the concentration camp was about to be liberated, it was the end of the film, and everyone thought that their family could finally endure the hardships. Quito was taken to a corner, the camera stopped at that corner, and after two shots, only German soldiers came out. In the end, the romantic and magical male protagonist in the film failed to come out with a smile after the gunshots.”
When I thought everything was returning to reality and cruelty. In the end, the cute son followed his father's words and waited until the entire concentration camp was empty. In the desolate concentration camp, the final prize of the game his father said was a real tank, which the US military drove to liberate the concentration camp. The tank really appeared in front of the son! He opened his eyes wide, and all the doubts and puzzles he had about this "game" were replaced by this real tank. " It's
a little brilliant, a little cute, and a little magical.
At this point in the story, I was completely overwhelmed by the protagonist's attitude towards life.
He treats the absurdity of life with an unbelievably optimistic attitude, treats the ugliness of life with the same spirit, and faces this history from another aspect.
Although Quito was not fortunate enough to leave the camp with his wit, the feeling of that beautiful life is limitless.”
