MONICA
NEROLIO
(Italy, 1996 87 min.)
Nerolio could have been titled
"A few days in the life of Pasolini." A fact-faithful
documentary could not better convey the controversial
texture of the late Italian director's work and persona:
the protagonist is a world-renowned poet and director
whose last film has been rejected by the critics. When
asked about the depth of the negative critical response,
the poet answers "Because I tell about the abyss
of mankind." The poet, who lives with his mother,
searches the nights for venal pretty young boys, not
merely looking for fun and sex but for warmth, love
and life.
