Timelessness of Divinity?

Last night and for the third or fourth time I re-watched Pier Paolo Pasolini‘s Teorema, and I swear to God it’s an even bigger wallop now. Expanded, deepened…a flotation experience.

HE hereby pledges to visit the white Teorema mansion (Via Palatino, 16, 20148 Milano) when I return to Italy seven months hence.

Pasolini and the entire cast (Terence Stamp, Silvana Mangano, Massimo Girotti, Anne Wiazemsky, Laura Betti) have passed. Only the red-haired son, played by Andrés José Cruz Soublette, is still with us.
