***The motivation for making film is quite beyond me.
His reasons have been quite well known. Pasolini's relationship with Italian public and critics have been very... shall we say, strained. Film after film he had been criticized for the things those parties found offensive, ignoring the obvious artistic side of them.
As the complaints about his "shocks" have been getting louder and louder, his bitterness was also growing, and at some point he announced: "So you feel I have been shocking you? You ain't seen nothing yet!" And he gave the world the Salo.
His films are his life to some degree, and he ended up his killed by a casual lover.
A wasted life? Hardly. He left behind some of the most haunting images, marvelous films and the Salo that can be considered the pinacle of both revoltion and artistic achievement.
