Great find, Liz! Thanks for posting this.
I read on another thread that when Mel Gibson first talked to Jim Caviezel about the role, he warned Caviezel that it may seriously damage his career in Hollywood and he wouldn't blame Jim if he turned it down. Jim took the risk and did a great job. (I saw the movie tonight with my 12-year-old son.) I think Caviezel will soon find himself in serious demand.

If Jim does not get the Academy award for best actor, Hollyweirdos have a riot on their hands. These are the rest of my nominations:

Best Film: The Passion of The Christ,

Best actors: James Cazeveil as Jesus, Maia Morganstern as Mary,

Best Supporting Actors: Pilate, Simon of Cyrene, Claudia, Veronica, Mary Magdalene

Best Director Mel Gibson

Best adaption from the original book(s)

Best screenplay

Best costumes

Best lighting

Best original score

Best art direction

Best sound

Best film editing

Best cinematography

Best special visual effects

Best makeup

And as another FReeper suggested: Lifetime Achievement award for Mel Gibson for single handedly bringing faith to the hearts and minds of millions of people who may experience this message for the first time, or may experience a new 'awakening' of the spirit.


Did I forget anything?
