  Have you seen "The Gospel...", "Mamma Roma", "Accattone", "Medea"...?

  He may be not your cup of tea but great he was indeed!

    boring. Accatonne? I was asleep in 15 minutes.
    A minor talent, and by using "talent" I'm being generous.

        There is almost always " une descente aux enfers " for an artist after his death. I would also say that a part of his films are just vulgar as you can see his love to this male prostitutes on some of them.

  His talent went far beyond the use of mere shock value, and is films are holding up very well.
