The movie Life is Beautiful would not be a good film to show for the class. This is because the movie is like a comedy during a time which was anything but funny.

The city lights stand out like a busy constellation of streets and houses‚ while satellite cars weave their way around the inverted sky. It’s impossible to make sense of‚ except for the main strip which is a single mound of coloured‚ noisy light. I like that the lights don’t seem to get dimmer as they get farther away.
