RoGoPaG (1963) ***

Three fine short films from famous directors and one perfectly fine short film from a relative unknown. The Pier Paolo Pasolini's segment, starring Orson Welles, is probably the best, a warm-up of sorts before the next year's "The Gospel According To St. Mathew". Jean-Luc Godard's segment is well-directed and intriguing, although more conventional than this director's other films. The Rossellini segment, mostly set in Bangkok, is a bit odd, but quite entertaining.
