There are only 923 words spoken in "Teorema" – but it says everything!
A wealthy Italian household is turned upside down when a handsome stranger arrives, seduces every family member and then disappears. Each has an epiphany of sorts, but none can figure out who the seductive visitor was or why he came.

Third Pasolini film i’ve seen and my least favourite so far (others being The Gospel According to St Matthew and Salo). The new wave films of Italy, France, Czech etc. haven’t aged well. The amateur style may have looked fresh back then but only really looks incompetent now. And the dubbing that Italian films often employed is really annoying. Can’t say too much about the story as there isn’t really one. The usual boring themes of spirituality/divinity and class that you’d expect from Italia filmmakers at this time (and most other times) are the focus and plot is secondary. As with what seems the majority of art films, it’s tell not show. It’s boring. It’s just boring. 5/10
