Giosue. Firstly, be humorous. Guido always makes his son laugh in the daily life. He knows what an important role laughter plays in their life. Being optimistic is a traditional mentality for the Jewish people. Let’s first talk about the distinctive charm presented by the humor from Jewish people. As it is known to all, Jewish people suffered from countless crucifixion and tribulation, being homeless for a long time, they were annealed by such living conditions and humor was the unique return. Too many sufferings had they undergone, long lasting tears and moan could not relieve their misery, only laughter can protect them and only laughter can dispel bitterness. The Jew cries to God, but smiles to the people of the world; smiling on the face, but crying in the bottom of their hearts. So their laughter is filled with thick sadness and full of irony and criticism towards life. They make fun of themselves using their own laughter, purifying their soul, alleviating pain and sufferings, entertaining mind and body, pursuing dignity of life. No matter how terrible the condition is, the Jewish people always find ways to make fun of the condition. Just like Guido in the concentration camp, he can make his son happy all the time. If the writer were the little Giosue, she would have the idea that the life of the concentration camp is just a game for it’s full because it’s full of funs and interesting things. Secondly, be wise. In the movie, the hero Guido’s intelligence is obvious. When little Giosue was tired and wanted to give up the “competition”, Guido just used several clever sentences to let him stay there voluntarily and happily. Jewish people’s intelligence is well known, they move here and there and do not settle in a fixed place. Thanks to the continuous moving, they can learn new knowledge from other people and keep them advanced all the time. Jewish people appreciate the idea that wisdom is more important than knowledge, they consider the person who just masters knowledge and lacks wisdom as a fool ass who carries a lot of books. In Jewish people’s opinion, such kind of people do not have ability to use the knowledge to practice even though they are full of knowledge. If someone keeps on learning all kinds of knowledge while does not digest it, it is just like someone owning many books while not using them ,both of them are wasting. So Jewish people know that wisdom should be used. When they move to a new place, they just merge themselves with the local people and learn advanced knowledge and techniques from them. The history of their moving is just the history of their advancing. Jewish people have the ability to change knowledge into wealth, so it is no doubt that they can turn up as rich every time. The wisdom makes them grow up again and again. Guido knows the importance of the intelligence, and it affects little Giosue step by step. Thirdly, interest is the best teacher. When the children are young, they do not know the importance of learning. Only interesting things can attract their attention, Guido knows what Giosue likes, so he tells a lie. He tells Giosue that the life of the concentration camp is just a funny game and the winner will get a real tank as prize after the game. After watching the film, the audiences may think that it is the lie that protects little Giosue, but on the other hand, we can say that it is the interest that saves him. Suppose little Giosue does not like the tank and is not interested in playing
