What do you make of the view that Life is Beautiful trivialises the Holocaust? 2. ‘You are a number; you are a slave; you are subhuman.’ Guido translates these words of the guard as: ‘You are at play; we work for you; you are, ultimately, winners.’ These words are also echoed at the end of the film. How appropriate are they? 3. Many of us may not experience the same depth of inhuman treatment as Guido, his family and the other prisoners of this concentration camp, but what insight does it give us into our own reactions to situations we face?
