"I have been preparing for the filming of "The Passion of Jesus" for at least ten years. Deep down in my heart, I am eager to tell the story of this biography and religion in the form of a movie. This is my faith all along... Everyone has their own faith and it is great to be able to do something for their faith."

In the TV screen, Mel Gibson is interviewing a program on Columbia TV. The topic is of course the topic of "The Passion of Jesus", which has recently caused huge controversy in North America. "From preparation, manuscripts to scripts, to raising funds, shooting, post-production, and striving for distribution, I have put in a lot of effort for this third film I directed."

"I like to film the essence of Jesus' crucifixion, and be completely loyal to history. Christ was whipped heavily, carried the cross and advanced, and his hands and feet were crucified." He added, "Christ became man, and we became murderers... "The Crucifixion" is the greatest heroic story ever, the greatest adventure story, and the greatest love story."

"He makes me sick!"

Sitting in front of the TV, Natalie did not hide her disgust and said to Ryan, who was sitting beside her, "This is the most disgusting movie I've ever seen!"

She looked at Ryan. He had the same blood as herself, but his sense of identity was far less strong than that of himself.

Ryan just shook Natalie's hand in comfort. He was rejected by him when Mel Gibson brought the movie to Disney. To be honest, he didn't think the current controversy has much to do with him. Just be a bystander. If major film companies don't like Mel Gibson in the future, they can be consistent with them.

Of course, Ryan never denies that Jewish people did give him a lot of convenience. He even became an important member of the Hollywood Jewish circle and the All-American Jewish Association.

This is no secret at all, so what he needs to do is to be consistent with the major Jewish organizations.

The interview on TV continues.

When the host asked if the movie would offend the Jews, Mel Gibson replied, "It doesn't mean that I just want to tell the truth, I want to make it as faithful as possible. However, when you think about the reason for the coming of Christ, he was crucified - for everyone. He suffered for everyone. So, really, those who have made mistakes should recall their own part in the crucified Jesus and their mistakes."

But when the host asked why he had to delete the clip of the Judaism high priest Caiapha, his answer turned out to be, "If I don't do this, they will definitely chase me to my home and kill me!"

As for who they are referring to, I believe all viewers will understand.

Maybe I think Mel Gibson's words were a bit too much. Monica Bellucci, who participated in this movie but never made a lot of noise, suddenly said, "The Cruciano of Jesus brings to the audience first a visually beautiful movie. As an actor, I like controversial things, but I don't understand why the movie was controversial from the beginning. It's not an anti-Semitic film, we all know that it was the Romans who killed Jesus Christ, not the Jews."

Mel Gibson continued, “My video is about faith, hope, love and forgiveness, about the sacrifices Jesus made for us. It is not about who killed Jesus. It is not about who is responsible for Jesus’ death!”

“Jesus was whipped for human injustice, he was hurt for the sins we committed, and he suffered for us that we could be forgiven.”

"If someone doesn't like this cruelty and doesn't like the plot in the movie, then don't watch it. If you go but can't stand it, then you can leave the show halfway."

He suddenly stood up, "No one will force you to watch!"

The Australian movie star showed his rebellious side, and after saying that, he went straight to the backstage.

Ryan turned off the TV, pulled Natalie up and said, "It's almost time, don't forget, you have an appointment with Scar to play tennis, don't worry about these things."

There was an outdoor tennis court in the villa that Scarlett bought. The two changed into sportswear, opened the back door, passed by another side door, and entered Scarlett Johnson's home. There was still a distance between them and saw two blonde girls fighting on the tennis court.

Taylor is tall and has long legs, and is not bad in terms of strength. He also practices occasionally. Scarlett is no match for her at all. He is often so angry that he screams when he gets tricky ball return. Her powerful ball return either flew out of the field or falls at the bottom of the net.

"Why do you want to grow so tall?"

With a tennis racket, Scarlett bent down and gasped, shouting loudly to Taylor, who was already five feet nine inches tall across the street, "Alison, have you taken height enhancer? You've grown so much this year!"

"Dear Scar."

After waved to Ryan and Natalie sitting on the sidelines, Taylor made several consecutive jumping and swinging moves, "You can only look up at me in the future, serve quickly!"

"I won't fight you anymore."

Carrying the racket, Scarlett walked towards the rest area, sat next to Natalie, took the functional drink, and took a big sip, "Nate, it's better to change you, this guy is too difficult to deal with."

"All right."

Natalie took off her sports jacket, threw it to Ryan, picked one from a bunch of rackets, and walked onto the tennis court.

She is not good at sports and her tennis level is no better than Scarlett, but Taylor treats her completely differently from Scarlett. Most of the time, the two are playing stale rounds.

"This guy knows bullying me."

Listening to Scarlett Johnson's muttering, Ryan couldn't help but look at her curiously, then looked at Taylor who was standing tall and serving, and then shook his head.

"This is my thank you, Ryan."

Looking at the handed Gatorade, Ryan took it and unscrewed the lid and took a sip. "It seems that the taste is different, Ska."

"Because there is my sincerity and sincerity inside." She walked away with the golden ponytail behind her head and laughed.

Scarlett knew that his mother had worked hard because of her mother's support. At such an age, she could win such honors. Looking at Hollywood, how many actresses can do it?

Even though there was a younger person on the Oscar nomination list, Scarlett was very satisfied.

"Ryan, what do you think of "The Passion of Jesus"?" Scarlett's words turned to the recent hot topic. "Yesterday a reporter asked me what I thought about this, but I didn't say anything."

"Be silent, don't express your opinions casually." Ryan said the safest way, after all, Scarlett Johnson is also Jewish.

His approaches and ideas are very direct and simple. As long as the dirty water does not affect his own people, he will be a bystander.

Hollywood producers have always been realistic, not believing in ghosts and gods, but only believe in money. If "The Passion of Jesus" achieved a high box office, Mel Gibson would no longer make excessive moves, and people would still wave checks to him to shoot new movies in the future.

You know, in less than a week after the release of the film, the North American copy of this film has increased from more than 2,500 copies to more than 4,000 copies. Distributors and theater vendors ignore the protests in the face of huge interests.

Of course, if Mel Gibson said something that touched the bottom line of mainstream society, the experience of the previous life would definitely come.

Mel Gibson is not a fool either. He was interviewed by Columbia TV and wanted to clarify some situations and win the support of mainstream media. Even if he really has some thoughts in his heart, he would not say it out with a clear mind. However, this person has always been impulsive after drinking.

But the media and most Jewish groups don't care what he explained, and all kinds of criticism can only be described as overwhelming.

Just after Mel Gibson was interviewed and came out of Columbia TV, he was thrown into a bucket of sheep blood by the demonstrators surrounded here, and the situation was terrible.

Even though Mel Gibson looked very pitiful in blood, the media would not let him go at all.

"By using the straightforward description of the Roman grand event to incite the audience's emotions, Mel Gibson made both redemption and art disappear..." The Los Angeles Times rarely warned the film with its front-page comments to "provoke the public to fight against Seminary."

The front page news of the New York Times, one of the three major newspapers, called "The Passion of Jesus" a film with violent and anti-Semitic tendencies, and described the film with words such as "strange, barbaric, narcissistic".

The attitude of mainstream media is very clear. To be honest, this film caused a "cultural war" in North America.

Even Pearson, chairman of the School of Film Arts and Sciences, expressed his disgust for the film in an interview.

‘Children should not be allowed to watch this video, and even adults should not take risks. The Crucifix is ​​the most vicious anti-Semitic film after the German Catholic Church’s film on World War II.”

Pearson described the film as “disgusting” and “cruel”, and he felt that the film was more of an anti-Semitic propaganda tool for ordinary audiences than entertainment, saying that “the Jews were constantly slandered and insulted in a two-hour and seven-minute movie.”

The topic of "The Crucifix" is no longer limited to the entertainment news field, but has become the focus of everyone's attention in American society. Major Jewish organizations in North America, including the National Jewish Association, unanimously agreed that "The Crucifix" is inciting anti-Semitism, thus launching a large-scale protest.

Faced with the overwhelming wave of criticism, Mel Gibson fully demonstrated his unruly side. In an interview with the New Yorker, he expressed his anger at the two Jewish journalists, the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times.

"I want to slaughter them, pick out their intestines, and slaughter their dogs together!" (To be continued...)
