What`s your name??



What's your name¿
I guess if you entered in this blog, you probably should ask for the name of the blog.
well, The name of the blog is in honor of a film "Life Is Beautiful", a wonderfull movie about Guido Orefice (Roberto Benigni), a young Italian Jew, arrives in Arezzo where he plans to set up a bookstore.Guido have a son with Dora, a teacher who he love, Giosué. World War II enters the stage. Guido, Uncle Eliseo, and Giosué are taken to a concentration camp on Giosué's birthday. In an attempt to keep up Giosué's spirits, Guido convinces him that the camp is just a game, in which the first person to get 1,000 points wins a tank. He tells him that if he cries, complains that he wants his mother or complains that he is hungry, he will lose points, while quiet boys who hide from the camp guards earn 1,000 points.


Guido maintains this story right until the end, when—in the chaos caused by the American advance—he tells his son to stay in a sweatbox until everybody has left, this being the final test before the tank is his. After trying to find Dora, Guido is caught, taken away and shot by a Nazi guard, butt not before making his son laugh one last time by imitating the Nazi guard as if the two of them are marching around the camp together. Giosué manages to survive and thinks he has won the game when an American tank arrives to liberate the camp. He is reunitted with his mother, not knowing that his father has died. Years later, he realizes the sacrifice his father made for him and also, that it was for that sacrifice that he is still alive today. It´s a incredible history and a pont of view of the war, the movie presents the horrible things of the war and the love and sacrifice of a father that love your son, in the film, Giosué is around four and a half years old, however both the beginning and ending of the film are narrated by an older Giosué recalling his father's story and sacrifice. If you see the trailer, you will know why the name "good morning princess" :) (here is the trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2odqS5oNvM&feature=related )

....and.. sorry for the lenguage, but I don't find the trailer in English, our idiom :/
