TITLE: "Life is Beautiful"
By Roberto Benigni
Life is a battle in a battlefield, a battle that is worth fighting for. We have a beautiful world and life, they say when we were still kids. Their smiles made us think that life is really beautiful, it's not a lie. We're innocent enough that time to know what's with their smiles and behind those smiles. Our parents, the people who'll put into our innocent mind that life is beautiful despite of what they have experienced. "Life is Beautiful", a movie that will make you realize the real meaning of life and the importance of enjoying it.
During 1930's at Arezzo, Italy , there's this young Jewish man named Guido who wants to have his own bookstore. At his way, he encountered a beautiful girl, a teacher in that city then suddenly falls in love. That beautiful girl named Dora. Dora is set to be engaged to a rich but arrogant man. So

She kneel down and go under the table and when they show each other Guido was wonder-struck and Dora same do with him. When they feel each other Dora kiss Guido in smooth way of kissing.

    Different Views of the Holocaust Portrayed Through Various Literary Elements “Life is a matter of perspective. It can be amazing or wonderful, or it can be depressing and worthless” (Gray, n.d.). This quote from Stephen Gray exemplifies both aspects of life in according to how one perceives it. As a result, some people choose to see life negatively instead of focusing on the positive aspects that make life great.

    The Tell-Tale Heart is a story written by Edgar Allen Poe and is a story which I’m pretty sure, much like many other mandatory school readings like Shakespeare and Thatcher, that many of you have read and most of you have forgotten, myself included. To recap the tale, and summarize for those of you who actually haven’t read it, the Tell-Tale Heart follows the story of a man who tries his best to convince us he is not crazy whilst he plots to murder someone for the sole reason that one specific detail of the man displeases him. The story literally opens up with the man asking us if we will think him mad once the story is over, in fact it references a disease afflicting the man himself clueing us in that this man might be an unreliable narrator. The written language of the text definitely harkens back to around the 1800s with specific mention going to the placement of words in sentences and the significance of certain aspects of the Christian mythos, which was quite popular back then.…

    Night, an autobiography written by Elie Wiesel, is about a real, gruesome life experience the author himself faced at the age of 15. It makes you really realize a few life lessons like a high point of pain and deprivation that make you act in an irrational and unusual way, you figure who you really are through your lowest point of your life, and you might not be in the situations or be affected, but you can spread a message rather than ignoring the cause. As you read along on Elie’s painful experience, you realize that the people around him change. For example, in chapter 6, Ellie realizes that a son, who deeply loved his father, left his father behind. This is an example that pain and deprivation can really take a toll on someone's emotional state.…

    While the concepts of death are identical around the world – that death is irreversible, final, casual, and inevitable – it’s apparent that there are many differences in the various themes related to death and dying. These various themes are abundant in number, but the ones particular to the movie P.S I Love You include the following: the principles of a good death, end-of-life decisions, last rites, facing death – coping styles, and the big topic of grief. The movie P.S I Love You focuses on the journey of a woman, Holly, who lost her husband of 35 due to a brain tumor, and the difficulties that she must overcome as a result of his death. The first theme that was relevant in the movie was the principles of a good death.…

    This movie reflects real life in multiple ways. I think one of the biggest lessons that someone could pull from this movie is that there is a price that everyone must pay. The Warden paid the price for his crimes when he knew he had an innocent man in jail just for him to use Andy for his accounting skills. The Warden ended up committing suicide and I feel that was the ultimate penitence that the Warden had to pay in order for his crimes to be forgiven.…

    Life is a very broad, difficult topic to speak about. Often times, people have conflicting thoughts on what they think the value of life is, what the point of life is, or what life is really supposed to mean. Should it be based off of materialistic possessions? Should who a person is or what they do with their life define them? Or should humans simply live as they desire and not put a price tag on another person until after they are dead?…
