Decamerone '300

About This Movie

Decamerone '300 is an Italian sex comedy that weaves together the mischievous tales of Boccaccio with a rather playful vibe. The story revolves around John Attelano, who’s eager to see his son Falcotto settled down, so he marries him off to Firdalba, with the stipulation that she remains a virgin until the wedding. The film is packed with innuendo and cheeky humor, reflective of its era, and carries a light-heartedness that makes it an interesting watch. Its pacing has that typical 70s feel, slightly languid but vibrant enough to keep you engaged. The performances, even if a bit over the top at times, lend a certain charm that’s hard to ignore. It's distinctive for how it blends comedy with a historical literary backdrop, creating a mix that’s both irreverent and amusing.

The film has seen various home video releases, but it's not particularly common to find in good condition, which adds to its allure for collectors. VHS copies tend to be more prevalent, while DVD releases are less frequent, making it a captivating find for those interested in obscure Italian cinema. There’s a niche community that appreciates its quirky style and comedic take on classic literature, leading to a consistent interest among collectors.
