Author Biography: Sam Rohdie

SAM ROHDIE teaches film studies at Baptist College, Hong Kong. He is a past editor of Screen and the author of Antonioni and Rocco and His Brothers (BFI Film Classics).

Book Synopsis

"... a keen and brilliant critical account of Pasolini's films and writings..." — Italica

"Rohdie's personal, idiosyncratic critical style is backed up by serious scholarly research, as the rich bibliography attests. This is one of the most original recent additions to the ever-growing literature on Pasolini." — Choice

"... refreshingly personal and full of unpredictable tangents." — Film Quarterly

Sam Rohdie has written a personal, wonderfully lucid account of Pier Paolo Pasolini's cinema and literature.
