He is the sixth actor in history to win the Oscar for Best Actor in a comedy after Clark Gable in It Happened One Night (1934), James Stewart in The Philadelphia Story (1940), Lee Marvin in Cat Ballou (1965),Richard Dreyfuss in The Goodbye Girl (1977) and Jack Nicholson in As Good As It Gets (1997).
Benigni was born in Manciano, Castiglion Fiorentino, Italy, the son of Isolina, a fabric inspector, and Luigi Benigni, a bricklayer, carpenter, and farmer.
When "Life is Beautiful" won the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival Benigni lept onto the stage to recieve the award, got down on his knees before presenter, Martin Scorsese, and kissed his hand; even in "real life" he was quite a commedian and had a great sense of humor.
In autumn of 1972, Roberto moved to Florence, Italy to take part in some experimental theatre shows, some of which he produced. This launched his performing and directing career.
On October 15, 2005, he performed an impromptu strip tease on Italy's most watched evening news program, removing his shirt and draping it over the newscaster's shoulders.
