These were Pirandello’s instructions about what should be observed at his funeral
He died suddenly in Rome in December 1936
Do you remember watching Kaos at the cinema with me Anna
Very much
I consider the movie to be cinematic poetry
The scene on the pumice slopes haunts me to this day
How I longed to be the eldest daughter
Where was it filmed
On the island of Lipari which is off the coast of Sicily
We will have to go there one day
Tomorrow perhaps
We shall wear the white undergarments
And slide down the pumice slopes
My favourite character was Saro in the episode towards the end of the movie when Pirandello visits his mothers ghost
Why is that your favourite
It is just when Pirandello remembers Saro’s name
It gets me every time
I have asked Outlaw to write a fiction about this
Has he agreed
Yes after a great deal of persuasion
I even suggested the title
What was that
Simplicity
Outlaw
