We should be praying for Mel. He's about to be run through the wringer again, will be taking assaults from all sides for the sake of bringing the message of the gospel to the masses from a traditional Catholic perspective. If the mainstream media has it's way, the movie will be panned and buried, and Mel will be the victim of intense scrutiny and ridicule yet again. He needs prayer for both his person and his project, which Christ's enemies would love to see scuttled. It's easy to gossip about celebrities-- how about we take as much time to actually pray for him as to discuss his merits vs his foibles? I think a novena would be great. Knowing that he is in our prayers may help give him the strength he needs for both his interior and exterior battles during this time. Just sayin...

The only one running Mel thru the wringer for the past several years is Mel.

He's so far off the rails, it's not even funny.

He appeared at a premiere the other night with his 25-year old girfriend.

Did you ever read Joe Esterhaus's open letter about his visits to his vacation home? Basically it describes a man who is mentally ill.

Pray that he gets it together BEFORE the film starts shooting.

If he doesn't get his spiritual act together, God won't bless this film and it'll be a disaster. Hope that doesn't happen.

I agree. He should look at Christ with all His Blood and know that he did this. Mel needs sorrow. Many prayers!

I think a project like this is exactly the type of thing that Mel needs in order to lift him up.

So he can come crashing down again? God only knows for sure but I get the sense that flashy, public, popular religious movies are not Mel's ticket to heaven. Movies aren't everything and I am sure there are better ways he could further the cause for the Faith if he truly applied himself in a disinterested way. IMO he needs something quietly heroic, not something that will further feed into his life of drama.
