It's an italian movie, but it's title in english beats me, but it should translate something like "Life is beautiful"
One of the best movies I've seen, yet, one of the saddest as well.

I believe I saw this in my Italian Class once ^_^ - it is indeed called "Life is Beautiful" and involves a Jewish Italian and his wife whom he romantically nicknames "princi'pessa" (well obviously.. the film is in Italian ) rounded up to a concentration camp with their son. It was really heart wrenching how he tries to convince his son that it is a "competition" ... I'm really annoyed that I never saw the end (we got up to his reunion with the German who's obessed by riddles) but then the average attention span of bottom set Italian isn't too great. (one of the reasons I did French at GCSE.)
