Pier Paolo Pasoli's Gay Love Letters * pasolini gay *

At one pot he wrote: “My homosexualy … had nothg to do wh me. ” At tim, he stggled to ee himself of homophobia, but never overme , achievg, for a while, only some fort wh hired sex. He also lived a relatively open life as a gay man, which was rare for that time and place.

He died at 53 1975, when he was beaten to ath and n over on a beach, a gay-bashg cint that some believe was also a targeted polil killg. It feels like a straight filmmaker's scere but failed attempt to get to the md of a gay artist.

"So began the events leadg to the murr of Pier Paolo Pasoli, brilliant tellectual, director and homosexual whose polil visn – based on a sgular entwement of Eros, Catholicism and Marxism – foraw Italian history after his ath, and the burgeong of global nsumerism. Pasoli's Ni Naldi – also a homosexual poet – wrote the ambiguoly entled Brief Life of Pasoli about the director's "fetishistic ruals" and "attractn for boys who ma him lose his sense of danger". A three-month celebratn of gay Italian artist and tellectual Pier Paolo Pasoli kicks off at the Castro Theater this month.
