Decameron concerns itself with being a series of narratives adopted from the literary classic of the same name. hollywood Set in a medieval Sicilian city, the film takes in any number of bizarre and often gut-bustingly funny situations and scenarios, and at times comes across as a medieval version of Woody Allen’s Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex. But whilst there’s hollywood plenty of flesh on display, occasionally very graphically presented, there’s also plenty of digs in the face of the religion, the institutions, the establishment hollywood and so on. Pasolini weaves his tale whilst crafting some of the most gorgeous imagery one is ever likely to encounter. The winding alleyways, the narrow passes, the open fields and the forest-shrouded convents, all presented like some impressionistic oil painting, arousing the eyeballs as readily as the similarly spherical filth-blobs.
