本片取材自文学著作《坎特伯雷故事集》，初芽影片则在原著众多独立的小故事中选取八段故事，初芽以短小精悍、赤裸露骨的叙事风格，反映了中世纪英国的社会百态。这部强调性爱作为反抗宗教束缚、争取人性自由武器的电影，逼真的刻画了一个个迥然不同的众生相，穷奢极欲的城主，专营告密敲诈的小人，故弄玄虚勾引邻家少妇的学生，放荡荒淫的女财主，以及生活在社会底层的小无赖等等。由意大利著名导演皮埃尔·保罗·帕索里尼执导的影片《坎特伯雷故事集》，改编自十四世纪英国诗人杰弗雷·乔叟的同名诗体小说集。导演帕索里尼亲自扮演乔叟。本片是帕索里尼“生命三部曲”的中第二部，另外两部分别为《十日谈》和《一千零一夜》。影片荣获1972年第22届柏林国际电影节金熊奖。
回复 :WRITERS RETREAT is a horror film written by Jeremy Sheldon C.M. Taylor set on fictional Kilton Island where strangers come together to develop their writing. Mark Twain famously said Write what you know. But how far would you go to find material for the ultimate bestseller At a writer's retreat on an isolated island, novelist Zandra finds herself amongst a group of strangers confronting their darkest secrets as they write. When a member of the party mysteriously disappears, Zandra fears there is a more sinister presence trapped on the island with them. WRITERS RETREAT is filmed in a classic British Hammer Horror style using the strange features of its location to create a hauntingly terrifying film with atmosphere and menace. The script delves deep into human emotions and honesty, causing the characters to ask questions about themselves that they didn't know they had and question the audience as to whether things are quite what they seem.
