メル・ギブソンの映画「キリストの受難」に対し、教会関係者が「驚くほど」の支援をしているとの事
カトリック教会、プロテスタント教会の双方が(ここがミソ)
教会は初日のために全劇場を予約済み。国立福音協会(?)は、ウェブサイトからチケット売りをサポート。
「牧師は、映画初日の聖灰水曜日に合わせて説教を計画している」とAP通信社が伝えているほど。
教会によっては信者を集めてバスで劇場に行く予定のところもあるという。信じられないほどのサポート振り。
このブームは「キリストの最後の誘惑」を思い起こさせる。
(注:この作品はカトリック側は冒涜であるとして、スペインなどで上映反対運動が起こったと記憶している)

作品の中の使用言語はラテン語、ヘブライ語およびアラム語で、英語の字幕付きであり、
暴力描写のためR指定にされたこと等、様々なマイナス要素を考えると、このブームは驚くほどだと言えるだろう。

下の方の記事に関して

この最後の stolen scripts と云うのはhttp://www.asyura2.com/0401/bd33/msg/406.htmlで触れた
「キリスト最後の12時間」と云うTV番組のことを指していて、そこから殆どネタを頂いたのではないか
と云うバッシングなのかもしれない。


---------------------------------------------------------------

この映画は、今のところアメリカだけの公開なのでしょうか?
BBCが報道しているのは知っていますが、他のキリスト教国ではどういう扱いなのでしょうね。
カトリックとプロテスタント双方が支援しているというのが興味を引きます。


すみちゃんへ

レスが遅くなって済みません。
ADLと云う団体は、端的に言えば、ユダヤ人に対する名誉毀損的な要素を重箱の隅を突つく様に見つけては
攻撃する団体、と云う感じなので、逆にメル・ギブソンの側の方が、それを充分に予想して
宣伝に利用しようと云う意図があったのかもしれません。
(あるいはギブソンの上にいる誰かが)

この映画は反ユダヤ主義を広げて、それはユダヤ人に対する新たな虐殺を引き起こしかねない。
それを扇動するものだ。という非難をして、カヤパのセリフを削除しろと言って
削除すると約束したのにうやむやになったとかナントカ…
その辺は、実際に作品を見てみないと分からないし、とりあえず置いといて(苦笑)

----------------------------引用ここから------------------
(それ以前に映画には不適切な題材みたいて気もします。
バッハやシュッツの描いたイエスを愛する私にとって、
映画はとんでもない冒涜としか思えません。
おおまるでクリスチャンみたいなことを書いてるね。 私)
----------------------------引用ここまで------------------

実はカトリック、(ヴァチカン)がこの作品を支援するとはちょっと意外な気がしました。
確かに福音書に忠実に描いたシナリオを使用しているのだろうけど
「キリスト最後の12時間」という番組から感じた印象は、キリストから「神性」を剥ぎ取り
あくまでユダヤ教の宗教改革者として行動し処刑された、一人のユダヤ教徒であり
生の「人間」として再認識させる印象があるし、「キリストの最後の誘惑」のもとネタにも
なった「聖なる杯、聖なる血統」にも通じる雰囲気があるし。
(注:聖杯伝説は、聖なる血統であり、イエスとマグダラのマリアの間に子供があり、
 それがメロヴィング王朝に繋がる、と云う説。テンプル騎士団やフリーメーソンが
 それを継承しているとやつです。)

Churches Make 'Stunning' Show of Support for Gibson's 'Passion'

Protestant and Catholic churches nationwide have stepped up an unprecedented effort to promote and benefit from Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ."

"Churches are reserving entire theaters for opening day. A national evangelical organization is helping sell tickets from its Web site. Pastors are planning sermons timed to the movie's Ash Wednesday release," the Associated Press reported today.

'Best Evangelization Opportunity
Since the Death of Jesus'

"It's the best evangelization opportunity we've had since the actual death of Jesus," Lisa Wheeler, associate editor of Catholic Exchange, a Web portal dedicated to Internet evangelism, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

"This is a window of opportunity we have. Here's a guy who's putting his money into a movie that has everything to do with what we do," said pastor Cory Engel of Harvest Springs Community Church in Great Falls, Mont.

"Churches used to communicate by having a little lecture time on Sunday morning. People don't interact that way anymore. Here's a chance for us to use a modern-day technique to communicate the truth of the Bible," the Rev. Engel said.


Arch Bonnema, the insurance executive and Southern Baptist from Plano, Texas, who spent $42,000 to reserve all 20 screens of a cineplex for Ash Wednesday after seeing the movie weeks ago, told AP: "As a Christian, you hear the term 'Jesus sacrificed his life for us.' We say it so many times that it's routine. I walked out of the theater and thought, 'This is incredible.' I thought, 'Man, this really puts it in perspective.'"


In the Atlanta area, when St. Peter Chanel Catholic Church and St. Brigid Catholic Church reserved 1,500 seats for two showings Feb. 23, they were told that 40 other churches had competed for the same time slot. The Rev. Frank McNamee, pastor of St. Peter Chanel, told the Journal-Constitution: "Our tickets just went like that. It was unbelievable."


'They Attack Millions'


An attempt by foes to "mute" Gibson's movie has backfired and only increased interest. "When they attack him, they attack millions of people in middle America," said Jennifer Giroux, a Cincinnati nurse and Roman Catholic who created seethepassion.com.


"They're going to bus them to theaters. They will give assignments in many churches: Go to the movie, we're going to talk about it," said Josh Baran, a New York public relations executive who promoted another controversial movie, "The Last Temptation of Christ."

"I think it's going to be one of the big movies of the year," Baran said.

From 'Dismal' to 'Stunning'

AP reported, "The groundswell is stunning considering the once-dismal expectations for the film, which is in Latin, Hebrew and Aramaic with English subtitles and is rated R for violence."


Outreach Ministry Inc. says it sent DVDs with a trailer for the movie to "most churches in the United States."

"National Association of Evangelicals, which represents more than 50 denominations with 43,000 congregations, has posted a link on its Web site for buying tickets," AP reported.

Christian Booksellers Association has asked its 2,500 U.S. retailers to consider selling tickets and posting displays.

"Religious broadcasters and publishers have put discussion of the movie in heavy rotation on television, in magazines and on Web sites. Leaders from the Rev. Billy Graham to movie reviewer Michael Medved have given 'The Passion' two thumbs up," the Atlanta paper reported.

Norm Miller, chairman of Interstate Batteries, replaced his company's hood-sized logo with an ad for "The Passion" on NASCAR driver Bobby Labonte's Chevrolet. The car will carry the ad during the Daytona 500 race Feb. 15.


"It's probably the highest demand that we have seen for group sales this early," said Dick Westerling of Regal Entertainment Group, which owns 555 theaters. Callers trying to place orders on Regal's toll-free number have been put on hold for up to 10 minutes.

A Special Edition of THE LEFT COAST REPORT
Mel Gibson & the 'Passion' Attacks

By James Hirsen
Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2004

A NewsMax Report

On Feb. 25, Mel Gibson's epic film "The Passion of the Christ" will appear on thousands of movie screens across the nation. The cinematic launch will occur despite unprecedented attempts to alter its content and thwart its release. The Left Coast Report presents some of the lowlights of the past year in hopes that the heroic resolve and artistic vision of the film's creators can be fully appreciated.


7. 'The Passion' and the Pope

On Dec. 17, Peggy Noonan of the Wall Street Journal reported that Pope John Paul II had seen Gibson's movie and said, "It is as it was."

Noonan had been given a written confirmation for the quote from the pope's official spokesman via e-mail.

The same day, National Catholic Reporter's main man at the Vatican, John Allen, reported the identical quote and attributed it to the pontiff. An unnamed senior Vatican official confirmed the quote.

The following day, Reuters joined in on reporting the pope's quote and cited an unnamed Vatican source.

The Los Angeles Times received its own independent corroboration for the story on Dec. 19.

On Dec. 24, Catholic News Service's Cindy Wooden claimed to have talked to "a senior Vatican official close to the pope" who said that the pontiff never said those words.

On Jan. 9, Allen reported that he had double-checked his original source and that the pope did indeed say, "It is as it was."

Enter once again Frank Rich of the New York Times.

On Jan. 18, Rich tossed more journalistic mud pies. He accused Gibson and Steve McEveety of using the pope to make money.

The next day Catholic News Service reported that the pope's secretary said that "the Holy Father made no declaration" about the film.

Two days later, L.A. Times columnist Tim Rutten apparently signed up to be Rich's Left Coast colleague. He wrote a vile piece that began, "A good Hollywood publicity campaign does not stumble over technicalities - like the truth. Still, it takes a particular sort of chutzpah to put a phony quote in the mouth of Pope John Paul II."

Actually it takes a particular sort of chutzpah for a columnist to forget to check his own paper's records before he writes on a subject.

On Jan. 23, in a news article, the Times admitted that "last month, the ailing pontiff was quoted as having said after a private screening of the film 'it is as it was.' Asked Dec. 19 whether the quote was reliable, Vatican press secretary Joaquin Navarro-Valls told the Times 'I think you can consider that quote as accurate.'"

The truth is that, from the beginning, Icon has had written authorization to go public with the pope's statement on "The Passion of the Christ." My sources have enabled me to confirm the graphic nod with my own eyes.

After stories began to emerge that questioned whether the quote was for real, Icon's McEveety immediately e-mailed the official Vatican press secretary and offered to discourage use of the quote. Navarro-Valls responded with an e-mail, which not only reaffirmed that use of the quote was fine but advised McEveety to use the phrase "again and again and again."

Even the New York Times on Jan. 20 wrote, "One prominent Roman Catholic official close to the Vatican said today, 'I have reason to believe - and I think - that the pope probably said it.'"

So what we have here are four respected news organizations getting independent verification, and Icon Productions getting confirmation, authorization and encouragement, to use the pope's "it is as it was" statement.

The way I see it, the Icon team has held fast to the truth and suffered the stripes with amazing grace.

The Left Coast Report thinks that, because "The Passion of the Christ" and its people have managed to survive insults, stolen scripts, threats of demonstration, pirated prints and dire predictions, the continuous triumphs are no mere coincidence. The more appropriate term to use would be providential.

メル・ギブソンが「ホロコーストの嘘」に関して発言した記事。

Mel Gibson's Holocaust Comments Spark Controversy

Mel Gibson can't seem to win - at least, if you are one of his critics.


The latest brouhaha involving Gibson and some critics in the Jewish community was ignited when details of his interview with Peggy Noonan for the March edition of Reader's Digest were made public.


According to the New York Times, Gibson's remarks to Noonan published in the March issue of Reader's Digest "raised hackles among Jewish leaders."


What were Gibson's controversial remarks? The actor went on record to contradict his father's claims that the Holocaust did not take place.


What angered his critics? Gibson, while acknowledging the horrors of the Holocaust, discussed the overall horrors of World War II and communist genocide in the Ukraine.


The Times reported Gibson's decision to make changes in his film "The Passion of the Christ," as reported on NewMax.com Tuesday. Gibson has removed the scene of Jewish high priest Caiaphas saying, of Jesus' death, "His blood be on us and on our children."


But Gibson's decision to cut the scene, followed by an olive branch letter to the ADL and his latest comments to Noonan, have done little to appease his critics.


Rabbi Marvin Hier, director of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles, has accused Gibson of "insensitivity when he compared Jewish suffering in the Holocaust to that of millions of others who died in the war."


Among other things Gibson discussed in his interview with Noonan, he told her that "he loved his father," according to the Times. Noonan persisted, telling Gibson: "You're going to have to go on record. The Holocaust happened, right?"


Gibson made clear his position: "I have friends and parents of friends who have numbers on their arms. The guy who taught me Spanish was a Holocaust survivor. He worked in a concentration camp in France. Yes, of course. Atrocities happened.


"War is horrible. The Second World War killed tens of millions of people. Some of them were Jews in concentration camps. Many people lost their lives. In the Ukraine several million starved to death between 1932 and 1933. During the last century 20 million people died in the Soviet Union."


Gibson had previously denied that his father was a Holocaust denier, "insisting that his father had merely questioned the fact that as many as 6 million Jews had perished in the Holocaust.


But Gibson's summation of the deaths of millions of victims of World War II and Communism angered Rabbi Hier, who wrote Gibson: "We are not engaging in competitive martyrdom, but in historical truth. To describe Jewish suffering during the Holocaust as 'some of them were Jews in concentration camps' is an afterthought that feeds right into the hands of Holocaust deniers and revisionists."


Not so, said Gibson's spokesman, Alan Nierob, who told the Times that Gibson's remarks to Noonan were in no way aimed at further inflaming Jewish leaders.


"There's no doubt in my mind that not only does he know the Holocaust and acknowledge it, he has shed tears over it, with me," he told the Times.


But Rabbi Hier insisted that Gibson missed a chance to reduce the tension with Jewish groups.


"I think he was lobbed an easy question. He could've used the occasion to take us on a different road. Instead, he marginalized the Holocaust, he diluted its significance, and it's a lie," he said. "Either he is very ignorant of sensitivities in Jewish communities of riling survivors, those who have lost loved ones, or he is doing it deliberately."


The Times wrote that ADL head Abe Foxman also protested Gibson's remark on the Holocaust.


"At the very least it was ignorant, at the very most it's insensitive," Foxman said. "And you know what? He doesn't get that either. He doesn't begin to understand the difference between dying in a famine and people being cremated solely for what they are."
