I watched this at school, in Uruguay. I remember most of us cried at the end and how they made fun of one of my classmates for loudly sobbing, but I think she was doing what all of us felt and wanted to but were ashamed to (you know how kids are, thinking that crying is weak when that's not true). It is a beautiful but tragic story, obviously considering the theme and the reality behind it; I'm glad I could re-watch it with you both now 17 years later, when I can truly appreciate and understand it fully. Sending you lots of love, from South America. XOXO

Oh @moiaena i was crying already! Your comment was the cherry on top!! But your insight, I agree with that, showing emotions and shedding tears loudly sobbing is no other than a sign of empathy and being human. Perhaps The world needs more people crying nowdays.
@@thosesiblingss not so cool. She Is a notorious bad actress, a paragon in this field. But since She Is the wife, She gets roles anyway. There are often bad performances in their movies.
I first saw this movie in an old vaudeville theater in Glendale California that was built in the 1925. You couldn't ask for a better venue to see this movie. This is really one of the best films of all time. I am glad that you watched it.
I love the carefreeness and poetry of the first part and the way Roberto Benigni kept this poetry all along the movie while suggesting the horror without showing too much (no gory images except one frame in the fog). That's why it makes it a poignant masterpiece for me. I'm glad you discovered and reacted this movie with us not too soon after Jojo Rabbit.
Im half German and half polish. This is one of my fav. movies. The movie is just fantastic, it's shows the biggest crime in human history, the murder, this tragedy in such a brilliant way.

I've been recommending this movie to so many reactors- especially those who reacted to Jojo Rabbit - including you guys. You guys are #1!!!!! You WON! (No pun intended). Roberto Benigni won the Oscar for Best Foreign Film in the most memorable acceptance in the Academy Awards history. You must search for it on TH-cam, in which he climbed on all the chairs and got a long-standing ovation. The award was famously announced by Sophia Loren, who followed someone in the audience and cheerfully yelled out, "ROBERTO!" His wife in the movie (played by Nicoletta Braschi) is his REAL LIFE WIFE! On top of that, he shocked everyone that night at the Oscars when he was also announced as the winner of BEST ACTOR! Greatest Oscars ever and one of the best movies of all time. Great reaction (Sudden ending like the movie) :)

There is another Italian movie "Perlasca-un eroe italiano" (an Italian hero)... The movie is not as good, sadly... But Giorgio Perlasca story is the most incredible ever, my favorite, saying nothing for 50 years and found by the people he saved in Hungary, from Jerusalem, just in 1997... Protecting 4 times as many people as Schindler... If you don't know his story, please search for it.. Is inspiring
now you have to watch the video when Benigni won two oscars for this movie, you will see that he was just being himself when he was being crazy in the movie 😄
As someone with some Jewish family on my mother's side, I find these sort of movies a hard watch, but this is a truly original take on a horrible part of human history. Well done for being strong enough to sit through a great movie.
I loved this film. I would like to recommend Cinema Paradiso. Not another holocaust story, but also beautiful, with a wonderful cry at the end. But a good cry, not a sad one.
You two are more brave than I am! Will not watch, I know this movie will brake me. Same reason I couldn"t go into the Jewish Museum in Prague. Couldn't bare to view the artwork of the children in the camps. Shalom❤
There was an Auschwitz exhibit in Boston, and I wanted to go since I have never been to the real site, as sort of a small sample before one day I go to the real one. It completely broke me... I went with a friend and I was trying to not embarrass myself by sobbing any time he asked me to translate something or explain something. I reached the end, took a deep breath, and my head was spinning, can't even describe the affect, then I read the sign again and realized it was not the end... but about 50%... it was the halfway point, and my friend told me he was sorry and that he couldn't finish. I told him that at the point we owed to the stories of those after that point to see it all and we pushed through. I did the rest crying because I couldn't hold it in. I don't know how I'll ever be able to go to the actual site if this was as impactful as it was...
Wow -- this is such a beautiful film! Well done with your reactions and commentary. It's amazing that this film makes us laugh and smile while it depicts arguably the darkest and most evil episodes in all of human history. I think that this is why the film resonates so much. A father successfully attempted to save his son (and his son's mind) from the perceiving the worst of humanity during an actual process of unfathomable genocide. He did this by making him smile and laugh (often at the Nazi's expense) under the pretense of a "game." What a beautiful gift!
I'm italian, back in the '90 they would play this movie on tv, I guess nearly all my generation watched this one when we were 10 years old. This movie is one of those that none of us would watch more than 1 time, even if we were kids back then, and we still remember it. I've found myself humming the theme out of the blue more than once even after 20 years.
Oddly, this is the first movie I bought on DVD circa 1997. I had bought my first DVD player and went to a used media store. It was inexpensive and looked interesting.
Giorgio Cantarini, the child actor who plays joshua also played maximus son in gladiator, he is the youngest actor to ever win the young artist award. And Giustino Durano (Guido's uncle) was a ww2 veteran, artilleryman in the italian army, he started his career in a prison camp shortly after being captured by the americans, he did little theater shows for other pows
I like how Steven Spielberg tried to use what pull he had to stop this movie from winning any awards, because according to him, it made light of the Holocaust.
I didn't know that. That makes it stranger to think about it at the Oscars ceremony when Benigni was standing on the chairs and Spielberg helped him to not fall... People should check/react to Benigni winning the Oscar video...
I love how the uncle, well knowing what is about to happen once he’ll undress, still help his “captor” up when she falls and ask if she’s hurt. That’s what growing up I was told a “real men” is like. One that no matte what, still follows his belief and if slapped on the right cheek turn the left.
È un riferimento a fatti realmente accaduti nei campi. La stessa Liliana Segre, dopo la sconfitta dei tedeschi, si ritrovò davanti uno dei soldati disarmato. Avrebbe potuto raccogliere il suo fucile e uccide*lo senza pagarne alcuna conseguenza, qualsiasi essere umano avrebbe voluto farlo dopo anni di prigionia e tortura, ma lei non lo fece. Sembra irrealistico ma l'umanità è sopravvissuta davvero persino ai campi di concentramento.
I need to mentally prepare myself for watching this. Haven't seen it since I was about 18 and I remember it broke me, especially the "We won" at the end. Even more than Schindler's List that I watched with my whole class when it came out when I was 13 or 14 (I'm from Austria and obviously old - I think we rented Life is Beautiful from a Blockbuster back then). My 8 year old son is now starting to ask questions about the Holocaust, he knows very little so far, only what they learned in 2nd grade. He's a foster child, he's been through a lot and young for his age and to be honest I wish I could hide the truth from him for much longer.
Se è stato adottato, posso dirti per esperienza personale che probabilmente ha già un filtro di normalizzazione per alcune atrocità, ma al contempo anche una certa empatia e la spinta al bene. Non ne sono certa perché ovviamente non conosco il tuo ragazzo, ma per quanto riguarda me non ho mai avuto traumi riguardo le tragedie del mondo (al limite se si avvivinano troppo ad un qualcosa di personale evito di ascoltarle). Mi si spezza il cuore ma tendo irrimediabilmente al domani, alla compensazione positiva, anche all'attivismo (alla sensibilizzazione, alle donazioni, adozioni a distanza, sono anche volontaria per la A.A.E. ed ho casa piena di coniglietti adottati...) Il mondo sa essere crudele, io per dargli un senso inseguo il bene, amo il bene che fanno le persone. Ecco se posso darti un consiglio, ricorda a tuo figlio che al mondo esiste ed esisterà sempre Umanitá.
Really enjoyed the reaction guys. I'm italian and it's always heartwelming to see the love for this precious film. If you liked it, maybe can i suggest "Johnny Stecchino"? Same actors and a funny story.
Since you both enjoyed Roberto Benigni's performance in this movie, I think you would very much like his slightly earlier movie The Monster, much closer to pure comedy though the story involves a serious background set of events; it's a brilliant film in which a serial killer is preying on women, and Benigni stars as the shlemiel who unwittingly becomes the main suspect the police are watching. It's hilarious to see how everything he does, of which we know the innocent explanation, makes the police more and more sure that he is the killer.
I saw this film when it came out and to this day it is one of my favourite films ever. A storie of the most beautiful unsellfish love even when everything is submerged in ugliness and horror, all ending with the most powerful victory of light over darkness. Roberto Begnini does remind me in some ways of Charlie Chaplin, an actor that the younger generations are perhaps not so familiar with, unfortunately. They both are comeadic clowns (Chaplin very much so) and use their whole bodies as an exceptional communication tool. Chaplin made his film the "Great Dictator" in 1940, where he satirizes Adolph H. and Mussolini, even when others were still denying, sometimes supporting, their crimes. He payed a price for his visionary and brave rejection of those regimes and ideologies. Roberto Begnini won the Best Actor Oscar for this movie and the movie won the Oscar for best foreign movie.
I am Italian and I am proud of Roberto Benigni but I remember that part of the Jewish community was not happy with this movie because the reality was too dramatic to make it into a comedy movie.
I loved the movie when I watched it at school, just released, when I was 12. Now that I'm a father I can't fugging watch it no more. Wonderful reaction to a wonderful movie.
i cry everytime i see this movie, even tho i grew up muslim. killing innocent jewish people was so wrong, and now history is repeating itself but now its the jewish killing innocent muslims, and its just so sad, God gave us free will to build the reality we live in and we really decided war, wow
One of the most compelling movies ever made. And ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE. It should be treated and honored as a world heritage object, like we do with historical sights etc.
Damn you guys… I’ve seen this movie a lot of times but your reaction made me emotional again. Please stop the war. Every child killed is our own responsability. Stop war, stop genocyde
Awesome reaction guys 👍I first saw this movie as a kid and it literally gave me nightmares, thinking that so many people could do what they did without considering the absurdity of their actions. Years later this movie taught me to hate racism.
I'm Italian too... Even though I almost know this movie line by line, I can't avoid breaking in tears each time I see it, even with you now... That's why I stopped watching it! 😭😭😭😭😭 If you're still wondering if the story is real, it's not... But the reason why I cry so Much is not because it's a great movie, but because unfortunately what happened during the shoah is true and much more painful of what is shown in here... 💔💔 The sad thing is that too many people has forgotten and repeating the same errors! Am Israel chai! ❤
The first time a watched this movie I had the strangest dream, scary but with an ironic ending.I was in the same camp with my little basset dog (she's gone now). As the nazis were splitting I was with an officer who swore he'd kill the dog first and then shoot me. I picked up his fountain pen and stuck it in his neck behind his Adam's apple and wore his uniform. This is where it turned ironic. Leaving the camp and acting stoic with the puppy on a leash a thought struck me: " I am not convincing as a damned nazi but she is even less believable as a German sheperd!".I woke up in my bed with the puppy licking my nose to calm me down.The scene, the colours and sorroundings were exactly like in the movie. 😦😢
I am Italian and obviously I love this film, but I would also like to recommend another film released almost simultaneously in 1998 entitled "Train de vie" - directed by Radu Mihăileanu with music by Goran Bregović, whose main role was offered and rejected by Roberto Benigni precisely because film "Life is Beautiful". It is a funny, brilliant, philosophical, surreal and tragic comedy about the escape route to the Shoa (Holocaust), where the desire to live, humanity is stronger than fear
I loved this film as did my mum who was a Holocaust survivor. But let's be clear. This is a fantastical take on the experiences of Jews and others who were forcibly taken to concentration camps. A parent and a young child being kept together? Any child too young to perform some sort of labour would be sent to their death immediately, unless they seemed to be useful for some sort of medical experiment. Would that a father's make-believe story could erase the reality! Just didn't happen that way, as much as we would wish it did...
E infatti lui muore nel campo di concentramento...attenzione, il padre stesso di Benigni fu internato in campo di concentramento e cerco di raccontare al ritorno quella esperienza nella maniera più "leggera" che gli era possibile . Inoltre prima di essere portato nei cinema, fu fatto vedere ai sopravvissuti dai campi di concentramento... è un grande film proprio perché non minimizza la tragedia, ma la rende fruibile anche ai più giovani...
You must watch “il postino”. It’s a different story but another Italian masterpiece. And if you know the story of the main actor, Massimo Troisi, you are going to have goosebumps at the end of the movie.
Do u like Benigni eh?😂 remember this guy its magic ❤❤ Ps this fantastic film to remember the freedom from the Nazis when we reach the last years of school it becomes a traditional film to watch, and today it reminds us again of the sensations, the goosebumps
I'm italian and Roberto Benigni is very beloved in my country, and this movie is an institution here in Italy. PS : The actress who plays Dora is Nicoletta Braschi, and she's married to Roberto irl :) .
Yes. And the movie is based on a true story. Grazie Giulia e grazie a voi ragazzi per questa reaction ❤
Bella, sorè😂😂
Il film più sopravvalutato di Benigni, ne ha fatti di molto migliori
No no no
Benigni è il migliore
In Italy they show us this film in school. It's really an institution for us, everyone over the age of 15 has seen it.
In Italy we also have a third of the country that goes around with their right arm straight in the air crying "viva il duce", and that would burn all the copies of "La Vita e bella". That's the sad thing.

In "JOJO RABBIT" the kid has to grown up. In "LIFE IS BEAUTIUL" the kid has to stay a child, to keep his innocence. ❤
Good observation!
true, but the kid in JOJO RABBIT is older than Joshua...anyway the scarlett's shoes is so touching and beautiful...great movie, i agree

Not sure it's a comedy movie, it's definitely a dramma.
Only the first part is a comedy and the second is a drama...And that change is what makes the film even more dramatic.
È assolutamente comprensibile. Forse neanch'io amerei una commedia riguardo la dittatura di Ceausescu...
Però aspetta... chissà cosa debbano pensare di Charlie Chaplin. Il grande dittatore non è ancora più vecchio come film?
Wonderful comedy with same actor and actress, consider reacting:

I'm not Italian. I'm not Jewish. But it's impossible not to cry watching this. Beautiful and sad.
Reminds me a lot of shawshank redemption. There's a lot of shawshank before Joshua shouts out "é vero!" (Its true, I've won a tank)
Damn you guys… I’ve seen this movie a lot of times but your reaction made me emotional again.
Please stop the war. Every child killed is our own responsability.
Stop war, stop genocyde
Un film bellissimo....
Great reactions for a great movie!
06:16 - 06:21 I love this parallel!🤣🤣💖💖I'm so proud of this movie and of our Roberto!💚🤍❤
posso piangere solo guardando un video reaction?
roberto's character is 1 of the best fathers in movie history
This won the Oscar for best movie
Awesome reaction guys 👍I first saw this movie as a kid and it literally gave me nightmares, thinking that so many people could do what they did without considering the absurdity of their actions. Years later this movie taught me to hate racism.
I'm Italian too... Even though I almost know this movie line by line, I can't avoid breaking in tears each time I see it, even with you now... That's why I stopped watching it! 😭😭😭😭😭
If you're still wondering if the story is real, it's not... But the reason why I cry so Much is not because it's a great movie, but because unfortunately what happened during the shoah is true and much more painful of what is shown in here... 💔💔 The sad thing is that too many people has forgotten and repeating the same errors! Am Israel chai! ❤
The only movie that makes me cry from the first to the last minute and even then.
Hi from our Italy ❤ Benigni Is a Genius..peace..
Too emotional to watch a second time for me. But it’s fantastic.
Very much understandable 💔
this hits everytime, and in Italian it's triplicated. Can only imagine what even deeper emotions gets on you❤
I recommend the film in b/w 'Daunbailò (Down by law) of 1986...all acted in English by Roberto Benigni with Tom Waits and John Lurie, bye ! 😊
u r beautiful human beings
One of the greatest films of all time
wonderful reaction, so sentimental and beautiful
Cant hold my tears great reaction, peace for everyone
😭😭😭…🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇹…😉
Great movie... Looking forward to seeing y'all's reaction 😊.
Take Care and Stay Safe 🙏✌️💞🕊️
Thanks ♥️♥️
The first time a watched this
movie I had the strangest dream, scary but with an ironic
ending.I was in the same camp with my little basset dog
(she's gone now). As the nazis
were splitting I was with an
officer who swore he'd kill the
dog first and then shoot me.
I picked up his fountain pen
and stuck it in his neck behind
his Adam's apple and wore his
uniform. This is where it turned
ironic. Leaving the camp and
acting stoic with the puppy on
a leash a thought struck me:
" I am not convincing as a
damned nazi but she is even
less believable as a German
sheperd!".I woke up in my bed
with the puppy licking my nose
to calm me down.The scene,
the colours and sorroundings
were exactly like in the movie.
😦😢
I am Italian and obviously I love this film, but I would also like to recommend another film released almost simultaneously in 1998 entitled "Train de vie" - directed by Radu Mihăileanu with music by Goran Bregović, whose main role was offered and rejected by Roberto Benigni precisely because film "Life is Beautiful". It is a funny, brilliant, philosophical, surreal and tragic comedy about the escape route to the Shoa (Holocaust), where the desire to live, humanity is stronger than fear
Bro is this guy "Samir" Victoria' s boyfriend from TheBoys ? 🧐🧐🧐
Another beautiful film about WW2 is (The Pianist, I recommend it)
Ho adorato quel film.
È un capolavoro
Watch Roberto Benigni’s oscar winning acceptance speech. It’s amazing.
If this movie made you cry so much, get a truckload of tissues ready for "Schindler's List."
Good reaction but I can’t stand the fact that he was saying everything before it happened, just shush and enjoy the movie damn😂😭
It is a shame it just won an Oscar for best foreign movie. Today it would win best picture Oscar outright.
t'ere is a very strange inaccuracy, in the film the "rescuer" is from america, in the reality , the lagers was liberated by soviet ... fun fact
I've been thinking about this movie so often since the genocide began again. All the displaced children who dont understand what's going on
It's nice that you ended the video without further words
One of my favorite movie! 🔝
americans tanks in poland haahhahahh
in reality it was soviet
seeing your reaction make me feel proud to be italian...
amigame pasas la película porfa💔💔💔💔
Ho pianto solo a rivedere le vostre emozioni 😢😢
This movie is the love ❤ thank you to have give it a shot.
Great reaction. I always liked this movie but you made me really like it a lot with your reaction
Thank you ♥️
One of the greatest sell out in the history of the italian cinema, we had far greater actors (and directors) than benigni
Esatto!!
Quanta ipocrisia
Questo film secondo me è un capolavoro. Cosa ne pensate voi
Italian's films are Next level!
Madonna che fastidio che parlano ad ogni scena
I'm not crying... you are...😟
Noa (Achinoam Nini) did a beautiful song on the film's soundtrack - th-cam.com/video/-OyXpzd6WBk/w-d-xo.html
Omg i always loved that song, didn’t know it's for this movie 🥹♥️
Non solo ebrei, tanto altro 😢
The movie has a huge problem though. None of the characters speak English.
The world doesn't turn around english, you know that?
I loved this film as did my mum who was a Holocaust survivor. But let's be clear. This is a fantastical take on the experiences of Jews and others who were forcibly taken to concentration camps.
A parent and a young child being kept together? Any child too young to perform some sort of labour would be sent to their death immediately, unless they seemed to be useful for some sort of medical experiment.
Would that a father's make-believe story could erase the reality! Just didn't happen that way, as much as we would wish it did...
E infatti lui muore nel campo di concentramento...attenzione, il padre stesso di Benigni fu internato in campo di concentramento e cerco di raccontare al ritorno quella esperienza nella maniera più "leggera" che gli era possibile . Inoltre prima di essere portato nei cinema, fu fatto vedere ai sopravvissuti dai campi di concentramento... è un grande film proprio perché non minimizza la tragedia, ma la rende fruibile anche ai più giovani...
Do you support Palestine??
One of the best movie.
You must watch “il postino”. It’s a different story but another Italian masterpiece. And if you know the story of the main actor, Massimo Troisi, you are going to have goosebumps at the end of the movie.
Exceptional difficult joyous movie to watch. Well done.
This movie will be always a magic!You have to see also Train De Vie
Do u like Benigni eh?😂 remember this guy its magic ❤❤
Ps this fantastic film to remember the freedom from the Nazis when we reach the last years of school it becomes a traditional film to watch, and today it reminds us again of the sensations, the goosebumps
This... to this day is the Movie that made me feel the widest range of emotions
