Arabian Nights (Pasolini, 1974): BFI Southbank, NFT1 8.30pm
This is screening as part of the Pier Paolo Pasolini season at BFI Southbank and is also on at the cinema on April 25th and 28th. More details here.
Chicago Reader review:
Pier Paolo Pasolini's penultimate film (1974), and the concluding
chapter in his trilogy on antique eroticism. Though the relentless
objectification of the frolicking bodies looks forward to the cool
Sadean ferocity of Salo, the style is light, casual, frivolous—it
doesn't have the intensity or obsessiveness of pornography, yet it
doesn't seem to have any other point. A typical puzzlement from
Pasolini, a major figure who never made a major film.
