Roman nights and other stories
my my, not just an awesome director, you had some writing chops too. Teorema! amazing.
well I hated Salo. ugh! but you directed the fuck out of that, I was really impressed by all those elegant tracking shots and the elegant mise-en-scène, all that elegance amidst the humiliation and torture, nice contrast, I really did appreciate all of that, at least for the first 45 minutes I saw before I fled the theater in total disgust, repelled and angry and swearing to never watch another film by you, goddamn you. well I broke that promise! but I will never watch Salo again.
anyway, the book. fascinating and challenging and beautiful prose and all of that. here's a nice review of it, in fact the only review of it on Goodreads, and can't someone fix that:
