Pier Paolo Pasolini~ 5 March 1922 – 2 November 1975) was an Italian film director, poet, writer and intellectual.
Pasolini distinguished himself as a poet, journalist, philosopher, linguist, novelist, playwright, filmmaker, newspaper and magazine columnist, actor, painter and political figure.
He demonstrated a unique and extraordinary cultural versatility, becoming a highly controversial figure in the process.
While his work remains controversial to this day, in the years since his death Pasolini has come to be valued by many as a visionary thinker and a major figure in Italian literature and art.
SALO or THE 120 DAYS OF SODOM, (1975), exceeded what most viewers could then stomach in its explicit scenes of intensely sadistic violence.
Based on the novel 120 Days of Sodom by the Marquis de Sade, it is considered one of the most controversial films of all times.
RICK CASTRO says- "salo is the best film ever made. it separates the men from the boys."
Pasolini was murdered by being run over several times with his own car,dying on 2 November 1975, (just days before the release of salo) on the beach at Ostia, near Rome.
Giuseppe Pelosi, a seventeen-year-old hustler, was arrested and confessed to murdering Pasolini.
Thirty years later, on 7 May 2005, he retracted his confession, which he said was made under the threat of violence to his family.
He claimed that three people "with a southern accent" had committed the murder, insulting Pasolini as a "dirty communist".
