TCP#81: Life Is Beautiful

Hello Couchers! Welcome to the March 8th edition of Tuesday Couch Potatoes. Before I proceed to my movie pick for this week's theme: Movies with Best Actor Awards, let me announce first the lucky Coucher who won $5.00 Paypal cash from last week. There were six participants last week, namely:


And the lucky Coucher who won the prize money is Jay-Agent112778! Congratulations! The names I wrote on a piece of paper and drew randomly. Congrats Jay! Please send me an email with your paypal address at anak0430(at)gmail(dot)com.


And now, for my movie pick: Life is Beautiful, which came out in 1998 and won three awards in the 71st Academy Awards: Academy Award for Best Actor, Academy Award for Best Original Dramatic Score and the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Roberto Benigni's performance in this film is something that you should watch. He is deserving of the Best Actor award for his poignant, humorous portrayal of a  carefree Jewish book keeper, Guido Orefice in 1930's Italy, who marries a beautiful school teacher, Dora and live happily together with their son, Giosue, until the Nazi forces arrive in town. This is one of the movies whose title has stuck to me ever since it came out in the big screen. It made me realize that no matter what circumstances we may be in, despite the problems, the sorrows and pains, life will always be beautiful.

What's your movie pick this week? Come and share it with us here on TCP and add your TCP link URL in the linky below:


I hope to see you all again next Tuesday for another round of TCP with the theme: Movies with Best Actress Awards. Thank you all for joining and have a good week ahead!
