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: https://vimeo.com/28016704
I just watched this last night, which you've probably seen. nostr:nevent1qqs8mnqkzuxy7zdzhauhqg43t9z38psc0zz3j5c58xd6yw4648qyxuspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43z7q3qnmq83muu5v0phkaew96amcwtqzle7u39ummz9nxg6dnnqt3zqjtsxpqqqqqqzgh7njw
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. https://www.reddit.com/r/TrueFilm/comments/yavyc7/question_about_the_gospel_according_to_matthew_by/?rdt=58952
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: https://vimeo.com/40881319 worth a watch imo, even tho you sadly have to log in (with fb or google acc) to vimeo to view
