Pier Paolo Pasolini
Description:The notorious final film from Pier Paolo Pasolini (MAMMA ROMA), SALO, OR THE 120 DAYS OF SODOM, has been called nauseating, shocking, depraved, pornographic... It's also a masterpiece. The controversial poet, novelist, and filmmakers transposition of the Marquis de Sades eighteenth-century opus of torture and degradation to Fascist Italy in 1944 remains one of the most passionately debated films of all time, a thought-provoking inquiry into the political, social, and sexual dynamics that define the world we live in.
"Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom" is a controversial and powerful film directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini, now available in high-definition Blu-Ray format from Criterion. Adapted from the infamous novel by Marquis de Sade, this 1975 Italian-French drama transposes its harrowing narrative to fascist Italy during World War II. The story follows four wealthy libertines who subject a group of young men and women to unspeakable acts over the course of 120 days. Notorious for its unflinching depiction of violence and depravity, "Salo" remains one of cinema?s most provocative works?a searing critique on power, corruption, and human nature. Criterion is renowned for their meticulous restorations and authoritative editions of classic films. Their releases are celebrated for exceptional picture quality, insightful supplements, and scholarly attention to detail?making them a favorite among cinephiles worldwide. Director Pier Paolo Pasolini was an influential figure in European cinema known for his bold storytelling and social commentary; his acclaimed works include "Accattone," "The Gospel According to St. Matthew," and "Teorema." Among the cast are Paolo Bonacelli (noted for roles in ?Midnight Express? and ?Caligula?), Giorgio Cataldi (?La Cage aux Folles?), Umberto Quintavalle (?Porcile?), Aldo Valletti (?Roma?), Caterina Boratto (?8½,? ?Juliet of the Spirits?)?all respected actors whose performances contribute significantly to this unforgettable cinematic experience.
