Il vangelo secondo Matteo The Gospel According to St. Matthew Pier Paolo Pasolini [videorecording] =

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextLanguage: Italian Summary language: English Original language: Italian Subtitle language: English Publication details: Italy France Arco Film Lux Compagnie Cinématographique de France 1964Description: 1 videodisc (ca. 142 min.) sound, b&w. 4 3/4 inOther title:
  • The Gospel According to St. Matthew
Uniform titles:
  • The Gospel According to St. Matthew
LOC classification:
  • PN1997 .V364 1964
Summary: From case cover: The birth, life, teachings and death on the cross of Jesus Christ presented almost as a cine-verite documentary. Pasolini's second feature seemed a strange choice for such a revolutionary director, but it is an attempt to take Christ out of the opulent church and present him as an outcast Italian peasant. Applying Neo-Realist methods, the director shot the film in Calabria, using the expressive faces of mom-professionals including that of his mother as the Virgin Mary. "The Gospel According to Saint Matthew" is considered the greatest screen version of the 'greatest story ever told' and this freshly re-mastered version brings the film to life in a way that has never been seen before.
