Bernadette of Lourdes - A religious drama based on the life of Saint Bernadette Soubirous, the woman who at the age of 14 had a total of 18 visions of the Virgin Mary. Doing as instructed, Bernadette digs by a large rock, revealing a "healing spring" that is still visited today ; Gospel according to St. Matthew -The film, which won a Special Jury Prize at the 1964 Venice Film Festival, is different from other cinematic depictions of the life of Christ in that there is no screenplay per se. Pasolini limited himself to the account by Matthew; only words written by the Saint are employed; no additional dialogue was written and only scenes described by Matthew are shown. Pasolini used no professional actors (his mother played the older Mary) and he dedicated his film "to the dear familiar memory of John XXIII."
