With a couple hundred million dollars in the bank I think Mel can pretty much make any movie he wants, and the copyright on the Old Testament story of the Maccabees expired quite some time ago. I'll go see it.
I'll go see it too. Just like I want to see this new movie with Jim Caviezal called "I Am David." It is about the MSM taboo subject of the brutality of Communism. The story of a young boy sentenced to, living in, and escaping from a labor camp.
