Advanced Audio Blog #34 - Roberto Benigni

Level: Advanced Audio Blog

Roberto Benigni. If anyone is having trouble picturing his face, try picturing this: a roughly dressed jew is frantically translating a Nazi officer’s orders German orders into Italian for a group of confused prisoners. This is one of the most famous scenes from Benigni’s film No? How about Benigni winning his Oscar, that was quite memorable. Doesn’t ring a bell? Picture a thin Italian man in a tuxedo, standing on chairs, almost in tears, saying in his acceptance speech that he “wants to kiss everyone” in joy? No? Well listen carefully to today’s lesson. In today’s lesson we’ll be learning about Italy’s most famous modern actor, Roberto Benigni. For the full transcript and translation of this lesson, visit ItalianPod101.com .
