That's basically how I feel about it too - Pasolini may have been a sick, twisted freak, but he knew what he wanted to say and had the ability to articulate it...I can't deny that the fact that I own a copy of this occasionally makes me feel a little dirty. Definitely not something I trot out at family reunions. | |

Yeah - and Salo had an extremely limited printing. I've heard that legitimate copies go for several hundred dollars - and it's not a particularly clean print, either. Supposedly the British Film Institute's release is much better (and also includes a documentary), but it remains unseen by me. | |

the rarest criterion thing i have is altman's '3 women', which isn't rare yet, but i'm very sure it will be. i know like maybe two people who know what it is, and only one of those two really appreciate it. of course, i don't think you should ever sell your copy of 'salo' if it's a movie you appreciate. not that this is a rare DVD at all, but they're going to have to pry my copy of 'grey gardens' out of my cold, dead hands. better yet, maybe i'll ask that my copy be cremated along with me....  | |

Imago777 said: superspaceboy said: WHat's that movie? yeah, what is that movie? Pier Pasolini's Salo (or the 120 days of Sodom) - one of the more vicious films you're ever likely to see. Some people think it's vile, some think it's profound, but I don't think there were many who were indifferent. The BFI's site for their release on the film has lots of info on the film and its history. http://www.bfi.org.uk/features/salo/ | |
