The Canterbury Tales (film)
The Canterbury Tales (Italian: I racconti di Canterbury) is a 1972 Italian-French medieval erotic black comedy anthology film directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini based on the medieval narrative poem by Geoffrey Chaucer. The second film in Pasolini's "Trilogy of Life", preceded by The Decameron and followed by Arabian Nights, it won the Golden Bear at the 22nd Berlin International Film Festival. With the "Trilogy of Life", Pasolini sought to adapt vibrant, erotic and scatological tales from classical literature. With The Decameron, Pasolini adapted an important work from the early era of the Italian language. With The Canterbury Tales, he turned to the earthy and bawdy Middle English tales of Chaucer. Pasolini considered the film to be among his most "ideological".
