 sadly I can't seem to find part 1 of this video essay series on Chaos Cinema, but part 2 is on dialogue and techniques:

 I just watched this last night, which you've probably seen.

 Sounds awesome 
 I'm not personally seeing The Marxist Jesus that people saw in the film. (Pasolini was a Marxist, I believe he saw himself as an atheist too, perhaps as a cultural Christian, not sure). Obviously these things are a lot more confused and not cut and dry.

Well worth a watch tho.

A curious Reddit discussion on it, which may or may not be worth reading.

I'd be curious to read your thoughts on it.

 this is technically Part 3 of the series but it is answering critiques of the first part and goes over a lot of what I remember being the main points of the arguments:
