Blow-Out (1973)
Director: Marco Ferreri
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Sade's 120 Days of Sodom reworked, with few of the resonances and none of the rigour of Pasolini's Saló. Four men immure themselves in a mansion for protracted orgies of eating and screwing: their excesses make for a colourful social satire, but when the tone turns sombre it looks awkwardly as if Ferreri was trying for something more.Author: TR
