The TM is for you because u say it and I luv it.
LMAO - I agree - even the lovely and talented Goldie could not really coerce me into anything - except of course if she, as a woman (AND WHAT A WOMAN ) stars with the tears, then all bets are off for any man then

AND - I think I need the spell Lord Child phonetically (sp.?) - LAWWWWWDDDDDD CHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLDDDDDDD

Also - Diss - I think the woman who played Mary (a Jew no less) was terrific in it as was Cazeziel (sp.?) - I thought they were great and showed talent. I make no comment on the content and no comment of Gibson - just the talent of the acting - at least to me

The Jewish woman was fantastic, really great, but Caviezel was not very believable at all, IMO, and I thought he was really stretching his acting muscles to the point where the viewer could see the strain. The make-up and effects did better acting than he did.

I haven't seen any of those films except Spiderman 2, which I didn't care for. One of my friends recommended Eternal Sunshine to me and said I'd like it. I'll have to check it out. I haven't seen the Passion, either.

I don't feel it had any reason for really existing and found Gibson's motives to be disturbing. It was all an obvious ploy to make money and he made it in spades.

And being an atheist, I don't believe a single thing that was in that flick. But even if I was a "believer" and liked the movie, it still would not be Oscar worthy, IMO.
I haven't seen it. From what I heard/read, it was too violent for what I watch. But most people I talked to liked it, even non believers. I heard a lot of praise for the cinematography and some of Gibson's artistic choices.

At another board where I post, I remember reading a review of the movie from an atheist poster in Australia. (You'd love her...she's a strong critic of American foreign policy. ) Anyway, I loved reading her insight. She said it didn't change her beliefs at all, but she didn't find it offensive. She talked about "universal truths" being found in the film, such as those who do nothing about corruption are as guilty as those who are corrupt. Anyway, I'm rambling.......
