Le Décaméron, écrit par Boccace entre 1348 et 1358, contient une centaine d'histoires que se racontent en dix jours des seigneurs de Florence tenus à l'écart de la ville pour cause d'épidémie de peste. De tous ces récits, Pasolini en retiendra dix qu'il va lier en faisant revenir ça et là deux ou trois personnages, notamment celui de Giotto (auquel il prête ses traits) venu à Naples pour réaliser une série de fresques.

My third encounter with Pier Paolo Pasolini did not turn out great. The Decameron is a lot like Arabian Nights, which I liked a bit more. I think what bothered me the most were the performances of the actors (or rather "actors") who seemed like some kind of naturals with a mental disorder, otherwise I can't explain the silly grimaces and everything. The story, which is divided into several short stories, isn't bad, but it didn't make me laugh or seem serious, which is a problem in a comedy drama. In short, I don't think I'll ever come around to Pasolini - maybe I should try his films from the 60s, which are more highly regarded.
