There are many films describing the Second World War, many of which emphasize on the inhumanity of Nazi. Those films are filled with sanguinary scenes which depicts the slaughter of Jewish people. In ordinary people’s impression, the Second World War is horrible memory especially for the Jewish people. The audiences are convulsed by the bloody scenes again and again. Happiness, to Jewish people of this period, is impossible. However, not all of the directors choose the same angle, there is a director choosing to use another angle to reveal the War and to produce a film called Life Is Beautiful. It has less to do with the Holocaust but more to do with the human feelings and the beautiful relationship between a husband and his wife, a father and his son. After watching the film, some audience may be happy and some may be sad. But no such a piece of art has ever before bined laughter with tears of sadness in and after the movie. We do not know what feelings the audience has after watching the film Life Is Beautiful, but the audience may feels really happy, because both Guido and his son have a beautiful life. And we also find the qualities of a perfect man from the actions of the hero Guido. A successful image for a husband and father is presented by Guido perfectly. We find a humorous, optimistic, romantic and brave man in this film, and the behavior of Guido is full of love. A perfect man should not only be successful in career, but also pay more attention to building a harmonious family with family members and should be the reliance and spiritual mainstay for his wife and the protective god for his child. Then he will have a beautiful life. This thesis tells us the anatomy of the film Life Is Beautiful, and we can see the deep love and hope of peace from it.

In some degree, it is useful for our beautiful life. 唐 山 學(xué) 院 畢 業(yè) 論 文 2 Part I Anatomy of the Film Life Is Beautiful The creative background and main plots of the film The film Life Is Beautiful selected its material from the Jewish life in concentration camp of Nazi, which was the most unfetable picture in the World War Ⅱ .
