Common Strange Famous, do you do background checks on the writer's family of every film or book you get involved with?
I think that this was dug up by people that want this movie to fail, and I see no relevance on what his father has said and how it has anything to do with this film.
As for this quote:
Quote:
Some Jewish leaders say the movie could fuel anti-Semitism for its portrayal of Jews' role in the crucifixion, while conservative Christians have praised it as a moving depiction of Christ's death.

Someone of German descent could have taken the same mindset on the movie Schindlers List and say that it could fuel anti German views. Yes its a silly analogy but one that is consistant with the article you presented. Like it or not, these things happened and they will forever be in the history books. Making movies about events such as these are to educate the ignorant, not to cast stones at anybody of the present.
That being said, I really want to see this movie especially since it has brought such strong opinions even before it has been released.
