If you loved The Truman Show, try Life Is Beautiful

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Truman Show, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Life Is Beautiful is

1930s Italy, sun-drenched piazzas, accordion music. A carefree Jewish bookseller woos a schoolteacher, they marry, have a son, and are deported to a concentration camp. Roberto Benigni's fable is a poignant blend of comedy and tragedy.
