Caviezel: 'Gibson Is Doing Brilliant'

Actor Jim Caviezel insists his PASSION OF THE CHRIST director Mel Gibson is doing "brilliant" after his high-profile drink driving arrest in July (06).
The Mad Max star was arrested in Malibu, California and launched an anti-Semitic verbal attack on a Jewish police officer.
While Catholic Caviezel insists he disapproved of Gibson's behaviour, he has been in touch with the actor/director to wish him luck in his battle against the booze.
Caviezel says, "Mel Gibson is doing brilliant.
"Everyone knows he's a brilliant director, but I don't agree or support his views.
"I would say that my experience working with him is such that I hope things come back around. (But) I can't support his views on that."

Mel Gobson is one of the few "honest" people in the hollywood sewer of entertainment. His remarks about the Jewish influence on entertainment are on target and they are offensive only to those who know that they are responsible for the reprehensible filth that the Jewish owned media and entertainment turns out. They push the envelope every hour of the day and then whimper that they are all victims of the anti- Semites. They never take responsiblity for the trash with which they inundate out society and our world. God bless Mel Gibson and his honesty, drunk or otherwise.
