The Decameron / Il Decameron (1971)
Comedy | Drama
Pasolini wrote, directed and stars in this richly textured epic based on eight tales by 14th- century Italian writer Giovanni Boccaccio. Pasolini weaves the stories together into a bawdy tapestry of a medieval Italy populated by artists, priests and magicians. Appearing in the role of the great pre-Renaissance painter Giotto, Pasolini guides the viewer through a cinematic landscape ripe with sensuality and irreverent humor. First in Pasolini's "Trilogy of Life," which also includes 'The Arabian Nights' and 'The Cantebury Tales". Originally rated X by the MPAA.
Starring: Franco Citti, Ninetto Davoli, Jovan Jovanovic
Director: Pier Paolo Pasolini
