A movie, a life. Today, I suddenly wanted to take a look at the movies that I had accumulated for a long time. Most of these movies have not been viewed by me. The reason why they are stored on the hard disk may be because of the relatively good reputation. Now I want to share with you a classic Italian film, the masterpiece of the famous director Robert Bernini, a film describing the life of Jews in Nazi concentration camps, "A Beautiful Life" released in 1997.
It can be said that the movie’s release date is older than my age, but when watching this movie, I can’t help being brought into that era and spying on this humorous Jewish youth from the perspective of God. The actor Guido is from the countryside, who came here to work as a service manager in a bar, and hopes to open a bookstore here.
At this time, Italy has already begun to show signs of anti-Semitism. Guido’s request to open a bookstore has been repeatedly rejected by the review department. The angry Guido is still clumsy and optimistic. He vents to tease the reviewer and hides the eggs. In the hat. The encounter between Guido and the heroine Dora is also full of drama. Dora wants to drive away the yellow honeycombs for the residents, but accidentally falls down and is caught by Guido passing by. The two have an indescribable affection. In the first half of
, Guido looked nagging and funny. He tried his best to please the "princess" in his eyes, and Dora, who was secretly moved, looked at Guido with infatuation. Until seeing Dora being arranged by his family for an engagement banquet, Guido once again used his ingenuity to pull Dora on the horse. The two established a romantic relationship and entered the hall of sacred marriage. In the blink of an eye, World War II broke out, and Italian Nazi soldiers searched for Jews in large numbers. Guido and his son Schopenhauer were arrested along with the group of Jews to a concentration camp.
The humorous Guido does not want Schopenhauer's young mind to be harmed, so he made up a white lie: "This is a competitive game. The first place in points can get the treatment of sitting in a tank." Let Schopenhauer believe that when the Nazi officer asked who could speak German, Guido raised his hands high, and with witty actions and humorous words, he successfully amused Schopenhauer. However, at the end of the film, Guido did not survive. He exhausted his last energy to perform the last play for his son, staying behind that wall forever.
"Life is Beautiful" was released at the height of the anti-Semitism movement. Bernini did not choose to use the surviving ending. He believed that if Guido survived in the end, it would not be a film reflecting the tragic history of the Jews. .
