    The first part of Pasolini's "Trilogy of Life". The director boldly chooses amateur actors and allows them to play freely. The sound effects are unmodified live soundtracks, and there is no soundtrack. However, he has put a lot of effort into makeup, costumes, dialogue and setting, trying to restore the scene of medieval Italy; the narrative is extremely ironic And entertaining, the naked erotic drama that the director is good at has also attracted a lot of controversy. But the story is slower...

    The film with a strong sense of ritual restores the messy but very authentic and credible Renaissance Florence. The original intention of Bogaqiu’s book is probably to respond to the "Renaissance" movement, oppose Catholicism, and pursue human liberation. Of course, as an excellent adaptor, these elements are restored in Pasolini's films, and he adds the eternal theme of his films: sex. It’s really not a holy thing, but it’s never...

    Pasolini's trilogy of life, neo-realism, rough room, non-professional actor. Naples, siblings cheating, tomb thief, dying bleaching confession, monastery deaf gardener, selling water tanks for smuggling, "get up and see how your daughter caught her nightingale", hiding the lover's head in a vanilla pot, A woman turning into a donkey, cheating on a donkey is not counted as a crime in hell, and the church muralist said to himself, “Why do you create art when your dreams are...

    Many fixed shots of Pasolini’s movies are very shaky, and the composition is very casual and the dubbing is even rougher. Using this realistic style to shoot mythological stories intuitively makes people feel that the technical level is not enough. He only has "Sodom 120 Days." 》Beautifully...

    It's so charming! Watching Pasolini's movies always makes people marvel at his calmness. This is by no means a very immersive way of storytelling in "Decameron". His method is to keep the scene awkward. He uses the untimely sound intensity in the dialogue, the cold field in the narration, and the omission of important information in the story to prevent the audience from reacting to it. The identity of the role maintains this embarrassment. Embarrassment reinforces the alienation effect, making...

    After being tortured by "Sodom" for N years, I saw Pasolini again as this "Decameron". Although Boccaccio’s blueprint is far less shocking than Thad, PPP’s The material perspective is still controversial as always. It’s just that I can dare to say, "I know what you are thinking", all these ultimate choices are destined to become a sacrifice in the world. Then just read the pictures. These are written in the composition and picture. The upside-down and secretive of the...
