Life Is Beautiful Movie
Noreena Toribio
Part A All of the qoutations pretty much tells the same message. But for me Rabbi Barry H Block's qoutation most strongly captures the essense of the film. As i read the qoutation ''hope and laughter can bring light into even the darkest corner'' affect me,it is because our country is in the list of poorest countries in the world. We need to work everyday under the sun just to buy food for our families.One thing that i am proud of being filipino is you can't really tell if we have a problem because we are always smiling. One thing that makes every filipino happy is a karaoke machine,there is no family who doesn't have one. I remember when I was still in the Philippines we sing for forever until we get the 100% score and we even sing until dawn. Thats why were proud of Jessica Sanchez 2nd runner up of American Idol because she get to show other people what filipinos got.Even if people don't have any food or money in there we have our neighbours who shares what they have,that is love and were still smile and laugh even though deep inside were not. I focused more on the word ''laughter'' because it is really the best medicine. This response is more on emotional that intelectual because i experienced it before.

Part B The three aspects of the film that illustrate the healing effect of story on human life are the direction,the funny scenes and the music. The way Roberto Benigni directed the film he is showing that life is not about laughter only. At first I didn't expect the film to have a lonely part, in life you don't know what is going to happen next and what to expect. One funny scene that i love is when Dora is been stung by a wasp and Guido asked her if she is stung in other places. The music of the movie is so calming and everytime I hear it I feel like I'm in a disco or a dance ball in the

    "It's a lovely story full of love and fun and adventure. I love this classy edition with illustrations that deliberately avoid linkage to the film. There is much more humor in the book than they could get into the film. The humor works very well and the characters are entrañables.Me likes adventures and actions in this book and especially how the book related to the cycle of hero…

    This movie took so many unexpected turns it is unbelievable. The most interesting thing is that considering the era when the movie took place, there is such a rich plot and the overall story is extremely intriguing. This movie exhibits many social standards that we often still face today making it somewhat relatable to present day society. Feelings of insecurity was really the main background of this movie and that is what made it most relatable. The way the setting was exhibited through the film, the emotion of the film was captured through that.…

    I felt inspirited by Okwe and his ability to make the best out of every situation. He did not allow his hardship to bring him down, which is a life lesson the audience can take away from watching this film. Many situations came up where Okwe was in difficult positions, but he did not lose hope. I did not realize the obstacles illegal immigrants have to overcome especially when their employer takes advantage of their situation. Being limited to choices can impact our important life decisions. Okwe chose the right path of working hard even when could have taken the easy way out by being a part of his managers illegal business of selling kidneys. I learned that it is better to stay true to your morals rather than going after materialistic things. Even though I cannot relate to Okwe’s lifestyle, I can relate to the message being portrayed. Regardless of what is standing in our way, it is crucial to rise above the obstacles but not forget to stay true to…

    The film employs an excellent use of pathos in showing images of boys trekking across the desert while the boys are describing their journeys. The images held my attention in a way that almost possessed me. I couldn’t look away from the emaciated boy who has lost the use of one of his legs, and has to hobble through the dessert with a cane. It was impossible to ignore the little boy who looked to be around eight years old, caring for two small children. These scenes demonstrate their plight in a way that gives their stories a ring of truth, and it made me feel as though I should have known about their situations.…

    Alive the Movie

    • 412 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Alive is a true story of a Uruguayan rugby team's plane that crashed and occurred in 1972 in the middle of the Andes Mountains, and their immense will to survive and pull through alive, forced to do anything and everything they could to stay alive on meager rations and through the freezing cold. The only thing the team has riding on after losing so many of their good friends and family members is the slim chance of making it through alive and their faithfulness to God. The one where the survivors had to resort to cannibalism. It starts out with a steely narration (by John Malkovich), who tells of his finding God in the Andes, and then quickly goes into a terrific sequence involving the plane crash. From there on in, most of the rest of the movie occurs at the front half of the plane, where 27 survivors begin their fight to live. A few people are completely broken by the experience and die. A few people do will go to any lengths to survive. The particular lengths they will go to include cannibalism. They do not kill and eat, but instead eat the people who have already died. Nando (played by Ethan Hawke) and Antonio (played by Vincent Spano) have such strong survival instincts that they are willing to climb the Andes to save themselves and their friends. Alive is a movie able to touch our hearts (and our stomachs) as it grimly displays the miraculous true story of survival in the Andes. As normal, however, I have my complaints of Alive. For one, although the performances are great, the dialogue is incredibly bad. True story or not, I have trouble believing that anyone would say half the lines in this movie. Also, the movie tries to be funny. Although many people who go through trauma develop a dark sense of humor, it doesn't ever seem realistic and seeming realistic is what dramas are about.…

    I think that the director wanted the audience to learn that we can get so caught up in our own lives that we forget that the people around us have lives too. We begin to think that our lives, opinions, and beliefs are the only ones that matter. “We are always right, others are always wrong” is the mind set we start to take.…

    The Human Experience

    The Human Experience made me realize that there are bigger problems in our world. It taught me that I shouldn’t take anything for granted. Just like the homeless guy said “One day you might have a home, but the next day you might be on the streets”. This made me reflect on my life, it made me realize that I’m also in need of healing. It made me think of how ungrateful I am and how I never say thank you for the smallest thing. This movie taught me that I could make a difference, by doing something small like donating my time or donating things I don’t need to those who are in need.…
