Mel Gibson's Wife Files For Divorce After 28 Years Of Marriage - omg! news on Yahoo!


and to this, I add--FINALLY! Used to think highly of him. Now I think he's gone over the edge.

Good for her!!!!!

She ought to be canonized for spending 28 years with him.

yeah - kind of seems like he could have a drinking problem.

[Élan vital]

Not to make light of it though. It's sad,really. That's a long time marriage to have it fall apart.

Maybe she's Jewish!

All of this on Easter Weekend too. Somehow the date (Good Friday) seems a bit ironic.

I am a big fan and have seen all his Mad Max movies, 3 Lethal Weapon films, The Bounty, The River, The Year of Living Dangerously, Braveheart, What Women Want, and think he's great. I just watched Maverick on TV for the 2nd time. His personal life really doesn't really interest me.

I tend to agree. And I sure wouldn't want to be married to him.

However, I don't boycott his movies--I can separate the work from the person.

I don't agree with Mel Gibson's esoteric religious beliefs. I also assume he shares some of his father's ideology which borders on the irrational. IIRC, his father doesn't recognize the Holocaust.

Way too opionated for me but I have seen many of his films and enjoyed them.
