World Cinema: The Gospel according to Matthew

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

A special presentation of Pier Paolo Pasolini's international award-winning film on the eve of Good Friday.
Starring Enrique Irazoqui, Margherita Caruso, Marcello Morante

Adhering strictly to the Biblical text and using non-professional actors, Pasolini gives us a starkly dramatic, documentary-like version of the life of Christ.
