I know Mel, and he's basically a good guy. The Passion of the Christ (2004) is very tough on Jews, and I didn't hold back from telling him so - but he says I'm wrong about that. Before producing a film for Mel, I would have a very serious discussion with him, so that I could be absolutely certain that he has really changed. If someone is against blacks, Jews or Arabs, even if their hands were filled with gold, I would, in principle, never work with them. - On Mel Gibson Show less «

[on his support for petitions to have homosexual men pardoned for sodomy in the United Kingdom, although he incorrectly stated sodomy laws only went back 60 years when they actually go back to the Buggery Act of 1533 under Henry VIII and he stated it was decriminalized in the Seventies when it was actually 1967] Stephen Fry and Benedict Cumberbatch have asked for petitions to get 49,000 men who were arrested just for their sexual preference, no other reason, and while Alan Turing was pardoned by the Queen in 2013 there's been a law on the books here [the UK] for 60 years that got repealed in the Seventies, so Matt Damon, Harry Styles, Defense Secretary Robert Gates, Julian Fellowes, just so many people have signed this petition which will be presented to Her Majesty's government as well as the Royal Family in an effort to pardon these 49,000 people who were jailed for no other reason. Big injustice, so you see the Pride (2014) thing and then you see The Imitation Game (2014), it doesn't seem to have quite gone away, not as simple as that. Show less «
