Life is beautiful

Some connections I would make between our poems and this movie would have to be the way the people were treated. For example in the movie it gave us a very detailed picture of how the Jews were treated. While in the poem the Jews had more of an impactful type of thing. I could distinguish the way Germans and Jews were treated. I think the movie had made the holocaust into more of a positive mood.



The tone and mood that the movie set for me was that to stay positive and always look on the good side. While the poem spoke more about the type of depressing feelings they had encountered. The movie and poem shared similarities because they gave extensive detail about the holocaust. The tone that was set by the movie was sad and positive at the same time. But, the poem gave me more of a sorrow look of it.


Life is shown as beautiful by the way the character guido gave us spirit. The way he made up the whole idea of a "game" to protect his son from being harmed was just a way of saying if I can keep you alive it is my biggest accomplishment. Also when guido would work hard for a piece of bread showed out that being optimistic in hard life situations gives you a feel that life is beautiful. Also at the end when the little boy yells out we won still thinking it was a game and that his dad gave up his
life for him. I think those two things make life beautiful that knowing you may not come out alive but still give anything for your child and wife is amazing.
