    The Decameron is a mid 14th century book by italian author Giovanni Boccaccio. Its set in 1346 and tells the story of a group of young nobles from Florence that, to escape the black Plague, decide to take refuge in a mansion in the countryside. To spend time they decide to tell tales to eachother and the book is a collection of these tales (100, 10 for each guest). Here in Italy is very famous (on the same level of Dante’s Divine Comedy) and is studied in both middle and high school. The tales are generally pretty good, going from comedy, to drama, to horror, to erotic (a LOT of them), and could really be apprecieated even by todays people. They have a good source material, i hope they dont screw it up.

      The trailer seems to focus on the framing narrative.
      Or the cast is the same in both the framing and the in-story tales.
      I just hope they don't just ignore the short stories by making what happens in them happen "in real life", because that would be super lazy.

  • @Bread-nx9fo

    I'd suspect it won't be a story collection, like the book, but go in a kind of "covid lockdown, but make it historical" direction. Which is a concept with potential! But calling it after the Decameron book seems like a mistake to me, it will only give people the wrong idea and make everyone mad.

    It never stops to amaze me how Americans keep making slapstick-sexy "America pie" inspired movies and call it ''The Decameron"? It is literally a masterpiece of Italian literature and sure some of the novellas are comedies like "Chichibio e la Gru" but others are tragic like "Federico degli Alberighi" or extremely violent like ''Lisabetta da messina". There are so many themes explored in the original text that is embarrassing to see this kind of depiction.

      Aahahahhah, perché netflix è sinonimo di merda. A loro interessa solo buttare fuori serie a getto continuo, non si curano dell'accuratezza letteraria, storica, artistica. Non gli interessa chi dirige cosa, quali siano gli attori, l'importante è che ci sia sempre una grossa fetta di neri, orientali, indiani, arabi, omosessuali, portatori di disabilità. A me va bene tutto, ma almeno siano funzionali alla storia, e non messi lì giusto per essere politcamente corretti e inclusivi. La Disney per lo stesso motivo ha perso tantissimo in termini di qualità e di pubblico. La gente non è scema e sono le stesse minoranze a sentirsi presi in giro.

    • @TapestrythatsWoven
      @TapestrythatsWoven 11 днів тому +2

      They had way more- especially during this time in history. Italy was part of the Silk Road and was literally neighbors with the Middle East and North Africa. The average Italian today is part North African and Middle Eastern genetically cause Italy has a long ass- much longer than the 1300s- history with other continents bordering the Meditterean (ie Africa and Asia). Italy had a Muslim population (of thousands of Persians, Arabs, and North African Moors) before Britain even knew what a Muslim was. Before Britain was even conquered by the Normans. When Romani people migrated to Europe from India during the 1300s- Italy and the Balkans is where they got to first (oh but you see an Indian guy in the cast and you're freaking out? Really?). Y'all want to talk about history, but y'all act like history didn't exist- and people never traveled or went anywhere- until the 1500s. And you probably think only white people could magically travel or know how to travel anywhere. Really?

      @@TapestrythatsWoven I never said that everyone in Italy at the time was white. Even though traveling in those days was much more difficult than today, I'm sure that it would have been relatively normal to find some people from the north of Africa and the Middle East. However, like I wrote before, this trailer shows the kind of diversity that you can find in the UK today (or at least the kind of diversity that you can find in any large British city today). So, yes, I call it rewriting history.

      ​the fact is that things didn't really go this easy, you are ignoring southern and northern italy's totally different history, and that we are talking about the Florence upper-class. Yes, immigration is a real thing that occoured, but if this is YOUR explaination it still doesn't add up completelly to historical facts. I don't care if they are black, white or asian, cause its fiction at the end of the day, but just don't try to justify it with random facts unconnected to each other (or connected in the wrong way).

    In the Decameron, the ten young people (seven women and three men) who isolate themselves from the plague in Florence are all Italian. Their names and brief descriptions indicate their belonging to the Florentine nobility:Pampinea,Fiammetta,Filomena,Emilia,Lauretta,Neifile,Elissa,Panfilo,Filostrato,Dioneo.
    These characters retreat to a villa outside the city to escape the plague and tell the hundred stories that make up the Decameron. There are no indications that any of them belong to an ethnicity other than Italian.
