A Zeffirelli anecdote from the days of "Hamlet" filming.

"Gibson always came to work boozed up. He said that it helped him let loose.
When his character was supposed to stab a fake mouse he insisted to kill a real one for the rush of adrenaline given by the killing. He stated that at his farm nothing relaxed him more than shooting random animals in the head with a Luger his father gave him as a present. His father was a very important figure for Mel. He dominated his life and brainwashed his antisemitic, homphobic, fundemantalist christian ideas into his head".

This interview happened before passion of the christ.

Counterpoint: Zeffirelli is a douche that says whatever crosses his mind

Again: DINAAAAA ! DONT LEAVE US!!! DONT LEAVE ME!!!
