bonjour a tous les liseurs, j'etais deja au courant de ce projet de film mais je viens d'apprendre un detail detonant concernant les sources qui inspireront le scenario du film. mel gibson s'attache ni plus ni moins a adapter la passion de notre seigneur en se basant sur les visions d'anne-catherine emmerich et de la venerable marie d'agreda. je jubile interieurement parce que j'esperais qu'un jour quelqu'un lirait ces ouvrages et chercherait de les transposer a l'ecran pour nous offrir autre chose que les versions asseptisees ou heterodoxes qui ont ete editees auparavant. en effet, les gens qui, a force de voir un crucifix sans y preter plus d'attention, le regarderont peut-etre desormais en se rendant enfin compte de la mesure insondable de l'amour de Notre Seigneur a notre egard pour enfin s'en emouvoir. bientot 10 ans que je nourrissais cet espoir (etant dessinateur moi-meme, j'esperais un jour m'atteler a la tache mais j'ai malheureusement toujours ete decourage par l'ampleur d'un tel projet)... j'espere que ce sera quelque chose qui servira a une plus grande gloire de Dieu et au salut du monde... prions pour qu'il en soit selon Sa volonte. le texte suit en anglais: Mel Gibson Commits to The Passion Monday, September 23, 2002 12:09 CDT Mel Gibson has committed to return to the director's chair with The Passion, starring Jim Caviezel (aka James Caviezel) in a chronicle of the final 12 hours in the life of Jesus Christ, reports Variety. Gibson will also serve as a producer on the project, his first directing gig since Braveheart, and pre-production is under way with a 10-week shoot starting in Italy on Nov. 4. No U.S. studio has so far taken distribution rights to the spiritual drama, to be shot in Latin and Aramaic. "Obviously, nobody wants to touch something filmed in two dead languages," Gibson explained. "They think I'm crazy, and maybe I am. But maybe I'm a genius. "I want to show the film without subtitles," he added. "Hopefully, I'll be able to transcend language barriers with visual storytelling. If I fail, I'll put subtitles on it, though I don't want to." Unlike in his first two features as director, Gibson will limit himself to off-camera duties on the biblical drama. Gibson is in advanced talks with Monica Bellucci to play Mary Magdalene. Talks are also taking place with Sergio Rubini (The Talented Mr. Ripley) to play the good thief Dismas, while Rosalinda Celentano has signed to appear as Satan. Ben Fitzgerald and Gibson scripted from several sources, adds the trade, freely adapting the diaries of Anne Catherine Emmerich, collected in the book "The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ," Mary of Agreda's "The City of God" and the New Testament Gospels of Luke, John, Matthew and Mark. |
