Gibson had his reasons for casting his own hands as those of the centurion driving the nails into Christ's wrists in 'Passion'.

Thanks for posting - Mel's sins are ugly but no uglier than my own.

oh yeaaaa - I remember hearing about that ... seems like his life has really gone downhill since then, but you’re right - thanks for pointing that out.

This may be the reason some are cutting Gibson some slack and hoping that much of this tape business is altered, piled-on, B-grade movie script stuff. Unlike someone like BHO—who I almost consider beyond redemption and one who would NEVER view himself as flawed and who likewise would never offer his OWN hand as one driving in the nails—at least Gibson sees himself as the rest of us see OURselves—hopeless sinners without God’s grace.
