	The 120 Days of Sodom (1784) - Marquis de Sade
		The 120 Days of Sodom or the School of Freedoms (Les 120 journées de Sodome ou l'école du libertinage) is book written by the French writer Marquis de Sade in 1784.
		On the other hand, another feminist writer, Andrea Dworkin, condemed it as "vile pornography" and its author as as the embodiment of misogyny, especially as the rape, tortures and murders are inflicted by male characters on victims who are mostly (but not exclusively) female.
		At once the first attempt to compile a Psychopathia Sexualis and a nihilistic cry of rage at the destructive egotism and hypocracy of human nature, this was fairly described by Geoffery Gorer in his pioneering book of 1933, comparing it with Kafka's The Castle, as 'one of the most extraordinary books in the world'.

		For 120 days, the victims at Salo endure the very same torture, degradation, and humiliation that we as viewers are forced to watch for 115 minutes.
		Every day there is "story time" in which the aristocrats and their victims gather around one of four women, depending on the day, to listen to horrendous stories of sadistic lust or devious violence.
		As the 120 days come to an end, it is time for the children to fully pay for their sins and the rules they broke.

		They include men who sodomize girls as young as three, men who prostitute their own daughters to other perverts and watch the proceedings, and others who mutilate women by tearing off fingers or burning them with red-hot pokers.

		120 Days is not only the story of four men who act out their sick, abusive fantasies, but of four men who employ storytellers to "entertain" them -- with stories describing every sexual variation conceivable.
		He concludes The 120 Days with a chillingly matter-of-fact tally of casualties and survivors, which reads like a report from the Commandant from a Nazi concentration camp.
		The manuscript for 'The 120 days of sodom' was written whilst Sade was incarcerated in the Bastille in 1784.

		The book was written in a solitary confinement by the Marquis cut from the world for seven years and its language reflects the mad, frantic state of the writer.
		In the context of Sado-mania that dominated late 60s and early 70s, Pasolini's adaptation of 120 Days of Sodom was not a precedence, though some critics, inciting film's sensationalism, readily claimed that he was the first one to use Sade's book as a film material (Bachman).
		The libertines reenact the stories, starting from the mild sexual acts, and ending with the cruel orgies of 'sacrifices' in which all children are massacred, tortured, raped, burned, dismembered, scalped, sodomized and finally murdered.

		The young objects of the experiment are banned from defecating for the day, so that they may all do so at the correct time and hence provide the unconventional nourishment for the daily evening banquet.
		As Pasolini himself alludes in his foreword, de Sade’s characters are essentially SS men in civilian clothing, and The 120 Days of Sodom is almost a damnation of the atrocities committed by the Nazis and their fascist allies written before it even happened.
		The Marquis de Sade saw the potential in humanity for what most would describe as utter evil, and any who doubted him in his own time would doubtless have been force d to withdraw their objections had they lived to see what humanity was to accomplish in the early 20th century.

		Considered by some to be Sade's masterpiece in debauchery, The 120 Days of Sodom was penned in secret by the Bastille's most notorious guest and was found hidden within his cell and kept out of public view for three generations before first being published in 1904.
		The book could easily be subtitled "The Marquis de Sade's 120 Suggestions for a Weekend", as it begins with a strong and lengthy introduction of the various characters and their vacation plans and then deteriorates down to a basic laundry list of things to do.
		The story revolves around four libertines who are quite friendly with each other, Durcet, Curval, the Duc de Blangis, and his brother the Bishop of X. The four friends become husbands to four wives (swapping being a popular pastime with them.) and shortly afterwards plan an elaborate vacation to the Duc's large estate.

		Salò is a loose but not unfaithful adaptation of the Marquis de Sade's 120 Days of Sodom.
		By bringing the action closer to the present day, and by grounding it in a specific historical reality, it becomes more than just a grotesque psychosexual fable.
		To this day there is a good deal of ambiguity about what happened, and a documentary entitled Whoever Tells The Truth Shall Die deals with the possibility that Pasolini was murdered over something political.

		Pasolini's final film, Salo, transposes the Marquis de Sade's notorious eighteenth century novel, 120 Days of Sodom, to Mussolini's short lived fascist republic of Salo at the end of World War Two.
		In the film a group of young people are rounded up by Italian fascists, taken to a secluded house and subjected to ritualised acts of torture and degradation.
		After a few days, the cinema was raided by the police, who confiscated the print and threatened action against the cinema owners under the offence of common law indecency.

		The 120 Days of Sodom was written in 1785 on a 12 meter long continuous scroll with tight lines of writing.
		Ironically, it was during his incarceration that he turned to writing, producing some of literature's most wicked pornography.

		Imagine the actor listing off his credits....oh yeah, and I played the vomit creature in "Poltergeist II." That's what comes to mind when I watch notorious Italian director Pier Paolo Pasolini's shocking "Salo: The 120 Days of Sodom." Here's a film that dwells on its decadence.
		A group of young Italian men and women are rounded up shortly before the end of World War II by four Fascist leaders.
		Pasolini loosely based Salo on the Marquis De Sade's "The 120 Days of Sodom." Thanks goodness the time frame in the film doesn't go on that long.

		Also, SALO is a film that would benefit greatly from a documentary on its making, especially present-day interviews with some of the actors to get their opinion and insight into the film and its controversy.
		I've read De Sade's Justine (To me, it is the greatest Atheist book of philosophy I've read) and his short Dialogue Between A Priest And A Dying Man, but for the life of me I couldn't get into his Philosophy In the Bedroom, perhaps I'll try reading it some other time.
		I tried printing out The 120 Days Of Sodom but about half way through my printer ran out of ink and paper, I think I'll try again.

		Made in 1975 and directed by Pasolini (his final film), Salo is based on Marquis DeSade's 120 Days of Sodom (which I've never read), but places the degradation in that book in a different context : fascist Italy.
