5.0 out of 5 stars God's Visit Transforms
Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2005
Verified Purchase
God comes to a family as a 30 something beautiful young man who proceeds to have sex with each member of the family; dad, mom, brother, sister and even the maid. Dad goes on to become a socialist and give his business to his employees, mom goes on to have sex with every young man she can find, sister I am afraid couldn't handle what she learned about herself at all and goes into silence, brother becomes an artist in the city, and the maid goes on to become a saint performing miracles in her old rural village.

Pasolini said each of them went on to "the wrong side of the tracks" to live out their lives. Isn't that what we are supposed to do after we have made love to god and he has made love to us? Isn't that experience supposed to transform our lives in such a way so as to send us out to transform our own cultures? Our own cultures would view where we then go and what we then do as "the wrong side of the tracks".

I learned of this movie in a book I am reading right now: "The Gay Militants" by Donn Teal (1971). It is a detailed account of the early days of gay freedom, the days just before and after "Stonewall". When I am completely finished with this read I will post a review of it for you. Teal shows in detail how the contemporary movement abandoned the underage boys and their lovers who begin the move to freedom for all gays. No wonder the contemporary gay freedom movement is now failing.

Love to all,

Will

5.0 out of 5 stars Pleasantly surprsed
Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2020

Being familiar with some of Pasolini's work, I was surprised to watch this jewel. Some of his previous work has been Banned in all countries because of it's "in your face" stark eroticism and sexual explicitness. Teorama is very subtle and stylistic whereby every seduction is followed up with effects it has on the seductee which ranged from enlightenment to ...... (don't want to spoil it for you in case you decide to view it)
I suspect Pasolini was the prototype for other producers like Brian DePalma's Body Double w/ Melanie Griffith and Dressed to Kill w/ Angie Dickinson and Michael Caine.

This is one of the greatest films ever made, where dialogue is almost never necessary. What a tragedy that Pasolini was murdered at such an early age. Terence Stamp here easily laying claim to the most beautiful man on earth during his fabled youth. Silvana Mangano is so gorgeous and she's at the strength of her power as an actress in this role. Grim, grim but such a fantastic masterpiece.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Who IS that boy?"
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2022
Verified Purchase
This is a fascinating film, and to watch it, I needed to suspend some of my expectations about what to get out of a film. It feels allegorical, and there is limited dialogue. The characters are complex and flat at the same time. We see many forlorn faces throughout. Terence Stamp ("the boy" he is called in an early scene) is the pivotal character in the first half of the film -- he is intimate with all the main characters. Can he redeem them from their bourgeois social status that seems to permeate their beings (except for the maid -- her status and outcome are different)? He seems to be the key to their liberation.

The film takes patience to understand and contemplate. Actually, it's probably a good movie to watch with an intellectual friend, so you can discuss your interpretations. Not for the casual film watcher, for sure.

2.0 out of 5 stars The "Plan 9 from Outer Space" of Art-House Films
Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2006
Verified Purchase
Unintentionally hilarious; so pretentious and poorly made that I was strangling with laughter several times. Jesus/God/Satan has sex with every member of a cartoonish bourgeois family and ruins their lives in various side-splitting ways. The maid becomes a saint who eats nettle soup, cures scarred children, and floats in the air. The wife bites the side of her finger, has sex with random strangers, and screams with all the authenticity of a teen in a slasher flick as Mozart's Requiem thunders in the background.

The movie is technically inept and badly written. Any randomly chosen film of Bunuel or Almodovar will have more to say about sexual politics than this Pasolini fiasco. Recommended only for connoisseurs of the atrocious.

Two stars for the "So bad it's good" factor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Important Italian Film of the Late Sixties
Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2006
Verified Purchase
This 1968 Pasolini film directly addresses issues of Marxism, sexuality and religion through a haute bourgeois Milanese family. Silvana Mangano stars as the wife and mother, and Terence Stamp appears in the first half of the film. The film's tone, both intellectual and shocking, is likely to be difficult for contemporary American viewers, but clearly Pasolini intended absolutely everything in the film. To best appreciate it, it is necessary to regard it in the context of the late sixties. The DVD has few 'extras' but the quality is fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars theory
Reviewed in Canada on June 30, 2020
Verified Purchase
Teorema is Italian for theory. Pasolini, who wrote and directed this film hypothesises what would happen if Eros were to be introduced to an upper middle class family, and then leave. His movie really makes you think. Excellent acting, excellent directing, wonderful camera work; he really puts his theory to the test and lets you draw your own conclusions.

"Bruttissima edizione di questo capolavoro,nessun tipo di restauro colori pessimi,custodia con copertina tipo fotocopia il tutto sembra un riversamento amatoriale da vhs,con sottotitoli aggiunti in inglese,sconsiglio l'acquisto."
Non è assolutamente una director's cut,veramente vergognoso vendere un film cosi bello in un'edizione cosi squallida,consiglio invece 'acquisto dell'edizione Bfi,in br e dvd magnificamente restaurata,con colori bellissimi e booklet...

Es ist ein Klassiker. Absolut sehenswert. Pasolini auf dem Höhepunkt seines Schaffens. Allerdings keine leichte Kost. Man muss bereit sein, sich auf einen einerseits sehr abstrakten, anderseits auch sehr sinnlichen Film einzulassen.
