DAY 14 Life is Beautiful

In preparation for your first major assignment we started to watch Life is Beautiful.  Roberto Benigni directed and co-wrote this film in part from his own personal history of his father being imprisoned in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp during WWII.  Benigni won the Oscar for Best Actor, Best Foreign Language Film and Best Dramatic Film Score and his acceptance speeches show him just as he played Guido in the film.

This film has many elements of questions of Personhood, Self and Supreme Being in it and that's why it is the perfect match for Metaphysics.  We finish the film tomorrow.
