Schindler's List was brilliant, as was Saving Private Ryan. There is room in Hollywood for both Spielberg and Mel Gibson.

Apparently Abe doesn't think so.

I agree...and I also actually believe that each artist has a right to his intripretation of events. Hollywood has always taken "dramatic license" and defended it as part of that art. Unfortunately, Gibson is being assaulted by many of the same people who so often defend the practice. Listening to Voight attack Gibson for his interpretation and historical inaccuracy was a joke, when people like Stone and Voight, himself, have often participated in inaccurate dipictions of events. The hypocrisy is just astounding.
