Review of Pigsty (1969) by Harpreet S — 26 Mar 2011
Im gonna steal from other users cause I can't sum it up:
"Pasolini intercuts the stories of two wanderers, one fugitive cannibal in a pseudo-medieval wasteland, and one ennui-addicted bourgeois slacker in a chateau built by his ex-Nazi father's blood money"--Adam Protextor.
"'I killed my father, I ate human flesh, and I quiver with joy!' I dare say the conclusion of Jean-Pierre Leaud's dark comic storyline is even more perfect than that of the cannibalistic morality play." --Kevin McCormick.
"The film flows like an argument. Crosscutting between two narratives, one set in a mythical past and the other in a German villa. Intimations of Marx, thesis and anti-thesis, but the result is poetically and philosophically stranger"--Facebook User.
