I intentionally left out the first two, good films, to be sure. Rex is more difficult to delve into than the others with more lively stories.

Mamma Roma is perhaps less typical of Pasolini films, a wonderful work more in the tradition of De Sica or Scola.

But slice it any way you may, great works by an unusual director, and I would also recommend watching at the end Pasolini, un delitto italiano (Who Killed Pasolini) - a film about the end of his life... well, actually there are also several documentaries, including "Pier Paolo Pasolini".
