“What he [Pasolini] sees is how we all turn a blind eye to evil because we are comfortable and we want to stay that way. We are sleepwalkers like the children in Salo' are sleepwalkers. He attacks modernity, he puts it on trial. He thinks consumerism is a new fascism because there is so much vilence hidden inside it, because it destroys nature and natural behaviour.”
Olivia Laing, The Silver Book
