      I'm Greek and every time I watch this movie I get emotional. You have to be proud about Roberto Benigni and Nicoletta Braschi. This movie is an ode to joy and life. Not to mention Giorgio Cantarini, who as a child, gave as a majestic performance on that movie. Actually, there's nothing less than majestic on that film. Everyone worked perfectly to create a masterpiece. And to be consistent with "Guido"...Buongiorno principessa!
      P.S.: Much respect to Thor, who actually watched a great movie and not just another meaningless, indifferent and empty "blockbuster". A three well deserved Oscar winner (although it deserved more).

    I watched this movie when I was a teenager, My parents told me this film was released the same year I was born, so I will always appreciate it. The screenplay was inspired by the story of Rubino Salmoni's book ("In the End, I Beat Hitler") and the story of Benigni's father who spent two years in a Nazi concentration camp, and told his kids about that experience with humor, and he realized that help him to cope with the situation.

    Fun fact, I used to live in the city in which it was filmed!!! It’s a lovely town in Tuscany called Arezzo. There are plaques up all around the city center stating what scene was filmed where. Even the street below the “Maria, la chiave!” window is marked! It was such a surreal thing to walk downtown and pass their bookstore, or sit and eat in the square next to which Guido fell off the bike.

    i'm italian and this movie i feel will always be a point of pride for all of us. it was so emotional for me, i was only 8 when it came out but my parents made me watch it because, well, my grandfather was in a concentration camp for 1 year during the war and i never really understood what that meant, with this movie i started to get it, without being overwhelmed by the brutality of that reality. unfortunately my grandfather passed away when i was 1yo so I never got a chance to talk to him about it, but everyone always told me he had a great sense of humor and could tell wonderful stories, so I would always imagine he'd tell me the story a bit like guido would.

    Yes, Italians talk that fast lol its because of the long words filled with vowels (I'm a child of Italian immigrants but my Italian is not good and therefore slow lol).
    Roberto Co wrote, directed and starred in this movie.
    As I said over on Patreon, you have to watch his win at the Oscar's for this film, it was MEMORABLE! Just for yourself, not necessarily as a reaction video.

  • @riccardomallardo7779

    Benigni's signature move is to make comedies about very serious issues, he makes you laugh about it but he still manages to let the drama transpire. Other great movies he did like this are johnny stecchino (about the mafia), the tiger and the snow (about the iraqi war) and the monster (about the monster of florence, a serial killer who targeted young couples in florence back in the 90s). If you like his kind of humour check them out, johnny stecchino with english subs is even on youtube

    There is a massive Charlie Chaplin quality to this film and one of Chaplin’s thesis statements is the famous song… “Smile”.
    The simple message at the core of Chaplin’s character and this film is to “smile”, to see the joy, the purity, the beauty and the innocence of this life in spite of the truth of the world’s evil and many problems, to keep shining joy and seeing the goodness when it seems impossible - to fight back with a smile and love.
    That is a true victory in life!

    Giorgio Cantarini played the son of Dora and Guido, and he later appears as Russell Crowe's son in The Gladiator.

    Not saying I agree, and if I remember correctly, the difference in length wasn't very significant, but that's what we were told.

You can see those are the kind of films they studied, because the comedy back then was over the top facial expressions.

    I watched this yesterday on Patreon and it made me so sad. Virtual hugs to you Thor...I know this was a tough one 😢I actually saw this film 2 years ago and I knew the ending going in but I forgot how loveable Guido was. This is such an interesting film because Guido would make me laugh so much but at the same time the situation was horrific. I think Saul in BCS is the only other character that has executed that contrast well. I will say, Guido and his son are my favourite part of this film (I wanted to hug the little boy so many times haha). They really are the heart and soul of this film...but more than that, I feel like the overall message is such an important one. I suppose you could say that Guido's ability to think on his feet was part of his personality but for me, what he demonstrated was the power of our imagination which is something accessible to all of us. I do think Guido was scared of course, but I feel like his ability to create laughter and beauty out of pain wasn't delusional either...it didn't feel forced. For me, it always felt like it came from his heart...like he could imagine something better so that just radiated out of him. That resonated so much with me because I too believe that our imagination is everything and that what we believe in defines our experience. Guido's creative thinking reminded me of how children think. To access that limitless way of thinking, one would need to abandon "logic" to a certain degree because that can only take you so far. Using the key analogy, I see logic as a singular key that can only open one door, whereas imagination is a key that can transform and open any door. The mind is so powerful and that was set up earlier with Guido and his friend's technique...so I love, love, love the message...it's so hopeful despite the genre/ setting.
    PS: I agree that the first half of this film was amazing. I only remembered the second half so I forgot about the romance. Guido and Dora were SO cute! I never watch shows or movies like "Marriage Story"...there is always a best and worst case scenario in life and I prefer to fill my head with happily ever after. Couples like Guido and Dora do exist...I'm convinced that the only reason people think that kind of happiness is rare is because we're so accustomed to thinking that it is. Again, as per the lesson in this film, "life is beautiful" and that begins in our mind :)

    very good video, but I think what happens to the doctor is something different and sad, by that point he had already lost his mind

    So yeah he asks the man at 5:00 what are his politics and he yells at his kids Benito (Mussolini) and Adolpho (Adolf Hitler) to stop playing 😅 hence why he stole the hat and left quickly

    I was having Italian lectures during college and watched it. It’s a movie that I can not watch second time, so happy that I can watch it with your reaction to make it a little lighter. There in the first half are many preshadowing hints about the political situation. But I feel the same that I would not be able to protect my kid in that kind of chaos.

    I live at the border of France and Germany, a land profoundly marked by the WWs. I watched this movie when I was young (11 yo I think) and I was traumatised. I would dream of hiding in a mountains of corpses, being hunted by nazis. Even walking alone in the dark, I would be afraid to walk into that "mountain" of corpses.
    I watched your reaction video to see if I could re-watch it now that I am 30 but really I couldn't. Still horrifying :(
    But this movie is a masterpiece, so clever in its writing

    They weren't robbing the old guy at the beginning. It was a racist attack. He was Jewish and they were fascists. This was fascist Italy Judy before WW2.

    Ufff...I Still can't watch this movie. I'm from Germany and I had to watch this movie back in 3rd or 4th grade (when I was about 8 or 9). I mean, I get it as a german that we're supposed to remember the history of our country...but at this age I just got traumatized by this movie 😵‍💫

      I'm Dutch and for historyclass, we were made to watch a documentary-type story on colonisation and especially slavery.
      Now, just beforehand, I'd like to say; I know that many kids in the classroom probably could've handled the story and were in dire need of a clear load of information about what colonisation was (because I've heard a teenage idiot suggest that colonizing is like when someone temporarily takes over your country, so that you can be shown how you can work properly and against a small refund, the bigger country helps you out with some sewage-pipes in the ground etc. Like some sortof extra-care for the special-needs-countries in the world. God knows where he got that from.)
      But it was a story that followed a slave-made family around from 'capture' to slavery and I still get chills when I think about certain scenes. I was 12 at the time, now 31 and I probably was the only one that was nauseous when leaving the classroom.
      An unclothed woman was being held down in sand and they burned a mark on her shoulder, while she screamed bloody murder. They roughly examined her mouth and bought some teenage women for some rich dude to have sex with (including the marked-woman's daughter.)
      She was seperated from her husband, who was purchased by someone else and they screamed and cried and were beaten while they left on a boat.
      Dead people were thrown overboard, they didn't get enough to drink, one guy got a boot on his head or something...with his eyes really close to the camera and he was crying. I might've misremembered that, could be that I'm mixing it up with another movie, but I remember bullets and broken teeth.
      And I don't know...just the general vibe and the fact that "The Dutch" were the ones that made you nauseous... I already had severe trust-issues and hearing that the ancestors of those dreadful people that tortured, raped and murdered were among us... that just made me want to lock myself up alone, scared that my Dutch blood would make me murder again or something. (I was 12..I essentially understood I came from evil.)
      So, yeah, I get it now, but damn, that was something to watch. It took me a while to even talk about that screaming scene, I kept hearing it in my head whenever I thought of the scene.

      My teachers were a little more careful I am Austrian and the first time we learned about the Holocaust was when I was 10 but with a short movie that was mostly about a mother telling her son what the Nazis are doing to the Jews. At that point I had read the word "Nazi" before in a childrens book but didn't know what it meant and I knew there was a WW2 and about Bombs destroying citys but not anything about why it had happned. Anyway I think 8 or 9 is a little young to watch movies that go deeper into that historic chapter.

    Loved your reaction. You're a great guy, Thor. Yes, we talk very fast, but Benigni even faster than most of us, and in a very pronounced Tuscan accent. This is a wonderful clip of him talking about poetry in a film, but really about a philosophy of life, a very Italian one if I may say so. Sanjay Gupta did an interview of some of the many Sardinians who have lived to and past 100 and asked them their secret. They mentioned what you might expect: pure food, water, air, but also things you might not expect, like hard work, good friends, and above all, love.

    Thor I dont know if you've seen any other Roberto benigni movies but he has others that are super funny and not sad. I recommend Johnny Stecchino and The Monster. the actress who plays his wife is in all his movies and his real life wife.
