La tigre e la neve (2005), dir. Roberto Benigni
After an incredible success of the film Life is Beautiful Roberto Benigni and his co-writer Vincenzo Cerami permanent return to the grotesque war, this time concerning the Iraq war. But what about the tiger the title has to do with the war in Iraq? Probably the same as a comedy with drama, but is often linked to two elements do not match. Crazy and full of vigor and calm Roberto Benigni and Nicoletta Braschi also prudent apparently do not match, but working together for over 20 years, and even painful defeat ( Pinocchio ) was unable to stop their cooperation.
Tiger and the Snow is a film that should not disappoint anyone if no one is comparing him with the Oscar-winning predecessor. Humor and the war have been combined in an ingenious way, you can both laugh and shrug. The film therefore meets the same role as Life is beautiful. Both films show both bright and dark side of life. Both movies show the hero, who looks at the world and people optimistic and in the words of Monty Python song "Always look on the bright side of life." He tries to joke even in the most dramatic moments.
In La vita e bella war force stormed into the world of ordinary people in La tigre e la neve heroes they decide to go to a country ravished by war. However, the motivations are different, for example, a poet, Attilio de Giovanni, do not care about the military conflict in Iraq, it depends only on the name of his beloved Vittoria, who lies unconscious in hospital, and without proper medication can die. Trying to save her life Attilio must provide the medication, and it is not easy - the transport was halted and many miles to be overcome to achieve the desired goal.
In addition to interesting Braschi Roberto Benigni and starring French actor Jean Reno, who in this film speaks Italian and Arabic (his wife is a Pole, so it will soon also learn Polish.) In this film, Jean Reno portrayed Iraqi friend of the protagonist. As usual, the actor gives rise to sympathy, even though sometimes his behavior leaves much to be desired, for example, when the doctor says with the conviction that Vittoria die, Reno seems to be unmoved, and come to terms with this turn of events.
lot is great scenes in the film, which cause a smile on your face: a scene in which Attilio wants to buy a ticket to Baghdad, conversation with camels, whether such a meeting with a detachment of American soldiers. Unfortunately, there are also scenes unreliable and irritating, such as prolonged indefinitely clowning in a hospital in an unconscious Vittoria. But on the other hand, these sequences are holding in suspense, as the viewer wonders whether the woman finally wake up or not. Mindful, however, a dramatic end La vita e bella had concerns about the fate of Attilio and Vittori.
Tiger and the Snow is a very good comedy, which, in return for providing entertainment forces viewers to think. Although in this film there is no violence, it is palpable climate of war, and anti-war message is clear. Above all, this is not a fairy tale about love, in which the title Tiger in the snow is something that is beautiful, but it seems impossible and unattainable. As someone utterly committed to achieving this objective and fulfill their dreams despite brutal senseless wars and conflicts are able to do this.
