actor-director

Over the next several months, it is going to be increasingly difficult to be dispassionate about \”The Passion.\”\n\nActor-director Mel Gibson\’s movie about the final 12 hours in the life of Jesus — recently renamed \”The Passion of Christ\” — will open nationwide on Feb. 25, Ash Wednesday. Last Thursday, the Anti-Defamation League\’s (ADL) Abe Foxman tossed more kindling on the prerelease flames by declaring, at an ADL panel discussion in New York City, that Gibson was \”seriously infected\” with anti-Semitic views.
