Repost: Wieseltier on the Passion

MEL GIBSON'S LETHAL WEAPON: The Worship of Blood, by Leon Wieseltier

The key line: "In its representation of its Jewish characters, The Passion of the Christ is without any doubt an anti-Semitic movie, and anybody who says otherwise knows nothing, or chooses to know nothing, about the visual history of anti-Semitism, in art and in film."
