The final part of Pasolini's Trilogy of Life series is rich with exotic tales of slaves and kings, potions, betrayals, demons and, most of all, love and lovemaking in all its myriad forms. Mysterious and liberating, this is an exquisitely dreamlike and adult interpretation of the original folk tales.

Notes
This third and final film in Pasolini's Trilogy of Life series is perhaps every so slightly less interesting than Pasolini's first film of the series, The Decameron, but neverthless it is a a fun and bawdy romp with superb cinemtography.
