a nice looking dvd of pasolini's the decameron is now available from mgm. (older versions of the cantebury tales, arabian nights and decameron are now out of print and go for big dollars on ebay.)an amusing movie that i can only compare to something like porky's or there's something about mary, as it focuses on the hanky-panky and sh** in the stories. certainly not as depressing as salo.
Follow Ups:
I have to admit this is a funny comparisson. Decameron has always been a rather special book for me and I was eager to see the film. I was surprised but not disappointed. It is unmistakably Pasolini, it is not just the film based on a book.Somehow I don't think Porky's is something that came to my mind while watching it.
