Based on Dante Alighieri's novel or not?


Is this movie based on Dante Alighieri's novel? On the info page it says Writing credits: Manoel de Oliveira. So I'm not sure.

Yeah and why does it say it is based on Dostoevsky's works?????

reply

Well, Dante wrote a poem, not a novel, so...

Sorry, couldn't help it.

This world is a comedy to those that think, a tragedy to those that feel.
