pier paolo pasolini and or pee pee pee a i prefer to call him ( due to his love of show male genitals ) and be perhaps the most overrated european marxist director and they be thick on the ground . how anyone can see art in this messy and cheap sex romp concoction be beyond me . some of the story here could have come straight out of a soft core porn film and and i be not even so much refer to the nudity but the simplistic and banal and often pointless story . anyone who enjoy this relatively watchable but dumb oddity should really sink his teeth into the der schulmaedchenreport soft porn german 70 movie series and because that what decameron look like to me . besides and the movie be sloppy on nearly all level and from start to finish represent 1. editing . an example represent at 1 hour represent15 minute represent45 second there be a chase scene that be put quite clearly in the wrong place . it be suppose to be place about a minute later and but i guess that pasolini must have hire booze up editor who have little time for the fine detail of movie making . pee pee pee fan would probably counter this by say that it be place there intentionally which i very much doubt . besides and even if that be true and that would be even bad and because that story gain absolutely nothing by make it hard to follow . ( this isn not exactly eraserhead or one of tarantino broken form film . ) 2. act . vey sloppy . triple pee fan ( all 8 of them ) proudly declare how 3p o us real people instead of actor . ( aren not actor people . or be they martian . sure and many actor have sub par iq but do that mean we should treat them with contempt . ) other director have use amateur and succeed ( such a alan parker or de niro ) and so why be ppp amateur so utterly awful in his movie . the answer be once again appalling sloppiness . pasolini be sloppy in everything and and that include try to get as much out of his toothless amateurs a he can . he be a lazy director and an imperfectionist if you like . the anti kubrick and i suppose . pee pee pee principal goal when casting must have be to find a many toothless old people a possible ( and young men that be to his liking ) . in pasolini world there be a simple formula represent lack of teeth plus strange face equal realism . it all well and fine to have them toothless and but at least try to eke out some at least semi decent performance out of these inexperienced neo thespian and otherwise youre an amateur yourself an amateur director and in pasolini case . whether 3p 0 wasn not capable of this feat or simply do not care doesn not change anything . ( who know . maybe he do not even notice the awful acting . ) 3. audio . the synchronization . if 3p 0 felt that microphone be too much of a hassle when film a movie and then he ought to have at least make a concerted effort in post production and i. e. get all these bum actor to say their line on cue in the studio and so that we the viewer wouldn not have to watch mouth move while the elusive dialogue float elsewhere in the movie . 4. lack of concept . we have close to a dozen story which aren not connect in any meaningful way . some be anti church ( more on that later ) and while some be merely sex yarn i. e. cheap male ( sometimes gay ) fantasy design to titillate and nothing else . the story and character be not amuse ( if at all ) on an intelligent level and but on the base level . 10 year old kid can laugh here . and there be nothing wrong with that and but then do not call it exalted and intellectual art . 5. a a result of point 4 and there be also a lack of logic in the order of the story . that go without say . pee pee pee could have arrange the order in any other way and and we would have have the exact same movie . this also mean that you can feel free to start from the middle then go back to the beginning and etc . decameron be like a bowl of spaghetti that way represent when you start eat it you can begin with any thread you want and it make no difference at all . 6. the pointlessness of the story resolution . most story end with a cheap gag or joke and i. e. some damn dumb punchline straight out of a porn comic book and whereas some story do not even have a conclusion represent they merely end . finito . at best and the story be watchable semi anecdote and barely any deep meaning there unless you find deep meaning in a porno . there be and of course and nothing easy than look for and find meaning where there be an absence of it . hence even any hardcore porn film can be philosophize or muse over endlessly . it easy and fun . try it and oh ye 8 ppp fan . a for the church bashing . some viewer get all excite about his attack on catholicism and what not . in principal and that all well and fine after all and i be an atheist myself but what those people ignore be the simple but essential fact that pasolini be a marxist . it like the pot call the kettle black . a marxist criticize the church for hypocrisy and stupidity . where do he get the nerve . besides and pasolini wasn not an atheist and hence his high and mighty and self righteous stance isn not justify . after all and marxist be believer represent they merely substitute the accepted god with the idea of a utopia and which be merely another supernatural wishful think fantasy . hence i can not get excite about ppp anti religion antic . this sophomoric humpdorama anthology end with pasolini say rather pretentiously represent i wonder . why produce a work of art when it nice just to dream about it . he wasn not actually refer to this silly little movie a art and be he . in case he be the poor delude man then i have to wonder why he do not just leave it at dream and and not make all those bad movie . wan na read my altered subtitle of bergman movie . e mail me .
