Is this available in english on any streaming platform?


Or Dvd/bluray?

i'm two years late, but if you're still in the market, this is streaming on tubitv in the us.

i just finished watching it.

i hated it. it's like a more disgusting, less interesting salo.

but maybe you'll dig it.

hey thanks for the late reply! what is salo?

reply

no problem. i should have mentioned that the stream on tubi has a problem, in that the subtitles are out of sync with the dialogue...so when you hear a line, you won't see the subs for 4 seconds or so. it makes getting into the flow of the film pretty difficult.

i sent tubi a message through their help desk, so maybe they'll fix it shortly.

salo is a famously transgressive 1975 film by pier pasolini. it's usually guaranteed a spot on an list of the most disgusting, extreme movies ever made. i won't describe it here, but if you take a sec to read the wiki page or any summary of it, you'll see why.

i think both films share some ideas, some politics perhaps, not that i know a ton about that.

i was kinda joking when i said la grande bouffe was more disgusting...but i honestly did find parts of it really hard to sit through. but i have a real hangup when it comes to watching/hearing people eat noisily & messily.

happy movie-chatting to you!
