that era of Mel Gibson was really wack, especially in retrospect of that event... when for a brief moment, Americans saw he was a crazy, racist asshole.
he was totally a household name, bankable property and had recognition as a director with his own production studio (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icon_Productions) cranking out flicks constantly.
recently, I rewatched a movie from just before Braveheart that I had completely forgotten. it is an extremely weird movie based off an even weirder book that is even stranger for being something Mel Gibson read and said, "hey I want to option this, direct and star in a movie about it." I got real weird catholic pedo vibes from it.
He really set his career on fire in a really short amount of time. He went from being an A-lister with a lot of potential for multiple Oscar wins to being a four-letter word practically overnight. Didn't he also just finish filming Apocalypto around this time? I remember he had a big budget film completely bomb due to his antics.
yeah, the apocalypto thing was wack. in the pre-releaae pressers he went out of his way to make sure the only interpretation anyone should have of the story was that colonization of latam was God's will because they were evil and needed saving.
I didn't know he tried to escape. The fucking privilege of this fuck.
My dad used to always call him "Smell Gibson"
