Life is Beautiful (1997) Italy, comedy
We watched this in class today and will finish it next week. I've seen it before, and loved it. The moments that stayed with me were the sadness and happiness that followed at the end when Roberto Benigni's character dies and his son, released from the concentration camp by the Allies, comes across a tank liberating the countryside. "It's true!" he shouts. (His father had told him that good boys who didn't cry in the camp or ask for mama would get a tank when it was all over.)
