Comizi d'amore
di Pier Paolo Pasolini (Comizi d'amore, 1965)
Il riassunto Pier Paolo Pasolini sets out to interview Italians about sex, apparently their least favorite thing to talk about in public: he asks children if they know where babies come from; asks old and young women if they support gender equality; asks both sexes if a woman’s virginity still matters, what do they think of homosexuality, if divorce should be legal, or if they support the recent abolition of brothels. He interviews blue-collar workers, intellectuals, college students, rural farmers, the bourgeoisie, and every other kind of people, painting a vivid portrait of a rapidly-industrializing Italy, hanging between modernity and tradition — toward both of which Pasolini shows equal distrust.

Il commento Il documentario di Pasolini, oltre a rivelare un’Italia moralmente piccola e arretrata, è interessante per il campionario di facce, voci e ambienti che mostra, e per mostrare quanto dannatamente era intelligente PPP, soprattutto se confrontato ai tromboni con cui parla.
