  REVIEW: The Passion of Christ

This certainly is the year of living dangerously for Mel Gibson. His new film, The Passion of the Christ, is proving to be a lethal weapon to movie critics and some Jews alike. Yes, the film is bloody; it takes a brave heart to sit through the torturous last 12 hours before Jesus' crucifixion. But unless you make a chicken run out the cinema doors, you'll get great payback for sitting through till the end. There's a conspiracy theory that Gibson is holding Jews ransom for "killing Christ." But that is not true. If it were true, Gibson would be the man without a face in Hollywood. But is this film what women want? Women like Pocahontas? And what about the men? Will this maverick filmmaker receive punishment from the movie-going public? The early signs point to "no." But the river between Gibson's advocates and critics is wide. Support for the film will vary from hamlet to hamlet. For critics, the bounty on Gibson's head couldn't be higher. But to his fans, Gibson will always be the patriot. I believe the praise he will get will keep Gibson feeling forever young, and each day, for him, will begin with a tequila sunrise

  Wow. Just wow.

Kim Novak is 71 years old today.

For me, she is forever etched into my memory as she appeared in Vertigo.

Wow.

"Hanoi" Jane Fonda rises to defend Senator John Kerry's anti-war activism. Other celebrities set to come to Kerry's aid include Michael Jackson, Charles Manson and the late John Wayne Gacy
A variation on "Bob's your uncle," which essentially means "And there you are!" or "And there you go!" It's a vague summation of a person's opinion or point of view. I think!
