Cool. The library's placed an order for Pasolini's Trilogy of Life films of the Decameron, the Canterbury Tales and the Arabian Nights. I've never seen any of them. I hear they're more fun than great, but so what?
They are very strange. CANTERBURY TALES may be the crudest and ARABIAN NIGHTS the most visually beautiful.
When I first came to New York, there was a revival theatre at 95th and Broadway, the Thalia, where I first saw THE FIRST NUDIE MUSICAL. I saw all of the Trilogy of Life films there, along with Pasolini's SALO, TEOREM, MEDEA, and THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST MATTHEW, all of John Waters' films, and several other fascinating films including the wonderful Alec Guinness film, THE HORSE'S MOUTH.
