Pier Paolo Pasolinis The Canterbury Tales (1972) transforms Chaucers medieval tales into a vivid, earthy, and provocative cinematic tapestry. Blending bawdy humor with social critique, Pasolinis adaptation celebrates desire, hypocrisy, and humanity with his trademark mix of realism, poetry, and radical vision part of his acclaimed Trilogy of Life.

The second part of Pasolinis Trilogy of Life is based on the fourteenth-century stories of Geoffrey Chaucer. Plunging with gusto into some of the blackest and bawdiest of the tales, Pasolini celebrates almost every conceivable form of sexual act with a rich, earthly humour. The films visual magic is complimented by this new High Definition restoration.

A particular delight is the use of a largely British cast, including Hugh Griffith, Jenny Runacre and Tom Baker, with Pasolini himself taking the part of Chaucer.
