CGiii Comment

The tagline states:

There are only 923 words spoken in "Teorema" - but, it says everything! 

In reality...it says nothing at all.

An infinitely dreary allegory on bourgeois deconstruction...and, if that's not enough to send you into a coma...the music will.

Myopic, contrived and dull - the trademarks of Pasolini. Oooh that will definitely upset a few film academics.
