Pier Paolo Pasolini was a notoriously gay intellectual and film-maker who, of course, was hounded by authorities for his films with graphic even gross sexual acts and a active gay life that included nightly cruising. His poetry and other writings constitute awesome Italian literature of great depth and understanding of the human spirit. Despite all this he is a rather gentle man who contributed to the beginnings of the gay revolution in Italy, Rome specifically where it had already great impetus. A sad life as he was murdered around 1975 or so by a 17 year old pickup. If you want to know of the incredible achievements of this man who was murdered in his 50's take a look. His 17 year old killer was literally set free as he claimed Pasolini was intent on what the boy did not want to do which is NOT accurate, actually a lie as is now known.
