10KDer Schweinestall: Directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. With Pierre Clémenti, Jean-Pierre Léaud, Alberto Lionello, Ugo Tognazzi. A man wandering in a volcanic desert forms a band of murderous cannibals. A post-war German industrialist learns that his son is unable to make decisions or form relationships.
“I havenu0026#39;t seen too many Pasolini films. Hardly is there any humour thrown in this one. Unlike, say, Decameron which I really loved, which featured comical shorts, this one, is obscure and hard to explain. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI feel no need for explaining any metaphors, or finding u0026#39;what the poet wanna sayu0026#39;, the two parallel stories have nothing obvious in common, and while one of them has no dialogues at all (visually impressive, though) the other one is full of it. Interesting dialogues, for love, lust, passion, politics.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor desert there are (for once more) two or three bits of Pasoliniu0026#39;s denial of God. I canu0026#39;t help but like such statements! Recommended only to Pasolini fans and fans of old, u0026#39;artyu0026#39; euro-films…”
