Life is Beautiful




 Life...is beautiful.
This is a movie, not justone of my random realizations.
Though a realization in its own.
The movie is actually a comedy, romance, and tragedy all wrapped in one.
Now how about that?!
Well, the man (seen in the picture) falls in love and weds the woman (in the picture also), and they have a child (guess what i'm going to say...). There's humor. And then there's darkness.
See, the moive is also about the holocaust.
The family is jewis, and are taken to a concentration camp.
The part that gets me is how the father convinces his son that they are there to play a game' and if they get 1000 points' the son will win a tank, and get to go home.
He brings light into the darkest of moments. All up until his execution by a nazi.
Thank the lord this wasn't a true story...
But does it really matter?

xo, stefanie

P.S. Watch this or DIE! :P joking!...no seriously.
