There are not many movies I had to turn off because I couldn’t stand them any longer. The Passion of the Christ made it on that list. Mel Gibson sees or wanted to show “beauty in brutality”, but this movie is simply insane. Even worse is the message, everybody who claims it’s not an anti-Semitic film probably hasn’t seen it. If Mr Gibson would have read (or understood) the story his movie is supposed to be based on properly then he should know that the sins of every human being makes the guy called Jesus Christ in his movie suffer and die. Jews and Romans are only supporting actors.
Interestingly that Austria’s public broadcaster put it on Good Friday night on the TV program, once a very special date in persecution of Jews.
However, I’m off to spend a few days on the countryside. Happy Easter Holidays to everyone!
