Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom , Pier Paolo Pasolini , 1975.

“The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear.” — Antonio Gramsci

Frack Hazard Reveal Saw the 1972 movie before reading any Chaucer. It was quite memorable! “Pasolini's artistic, sometimes violent, always vividly cinematic retelling of some of Chaucer's most erotic tales.” — IMDB

2. Geoffrey Chaucer - Canterbury Tales Read this one for a class and it’s got some life-changing stuff that I really enjoyed especially after seeing the Pasolini adaptation.

"In 'Salo' (1976), sex is nothing but an allegory of the commodification of bodies at the hands of power. I think that consumerism manipulates & violates bodies as much as Nazism did. My film represents this sinister coincidence between Nazism & consumerism." --- Pasolini

THE CANTERBURY TALES (72) Pasolini's take on Chaucer (w/a bit of Dante's Inferno) partially covers Middle Age stories of randy villagers.X-rated film isn't "dirty" so much as "ugly". Pasolini plods along, unsettling us but also revolting us. It's showmanship of a particular kind.

that one guy that dont play around with pasolini as chaucer

Ron Cobb, 1975

Le capitalisme fossile est toujours plus guerrier et bafoue le droit international Raison de plus pour sortir au plus vite du capitalisme et des énergies fossiles

'The bittre frostes, with the sleet and reyn, Destroyed hath the grene in every yerd; Janus sit by the fyr, with double berd, And drynketh of his bugle horn the wyn. Biforn hym stant brawen of the tusked swyn, And "Nowel!" crieth every lusty man.' (Chaucer, The Franklin's Tale)

Pasolini makes it ALL about SEX? 🙄

Hace 10 días empecé “Ovni 78” de los Wu Ming. Comunas, ufología, las Brigadas Rojas secuestrando a Aldo Moro tras ejecutar a toda su escolta, terroristas fascistas, heroína, boys scouts, el compromiso histórico yéndose a la mierda y un mundo mucho más entendible que este. Léanla

Ha detto Elio Petri a proposito di Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma: “Torcere il naso, come molti hanno fatto, davanti alla merda di cioccolata di Pasolini senza pensare a quanta merda vera s’è mangiata nella propria vita, (…) mi sembra da schizofrenici.” Il film di Pasolini
