In 1966, Bene presented The Pink and the Black, his successful theatrical adaptation of Matthew Gregory Lewisโ lurid Gothic novel from 1796. Experimental filmmaker Paolo Brunatto filmed some of the playโs rehearsals in a Rome apartment (also frequented also by the Living Theatre). Bene's artistry is encapsulated in one sentence: โOne cannot continue to prostitute the idea of theatre, which stands only for a magical, brutal link with reality."
Directed by Paolo Brunatto
