I just found out that Professor Aaron Gale has a piece in the Sunday Gazette Mail on Mel Gibson’s film “The Passion of the Christ”.

Aaron Gale is one of the best professors I have had, in my numerous years at WVU (and they are numerous), so I am always eager to read and hear what he has to say.

I have actually ignored much of the hoopla about the movie, especially since it started months and months ago, but the whole thing is an interesting phenomenon–how a movie can garner so much publicity months before it is released, and lead people to opinions before they have even seen it.

I’m not (as you may well know) a movie person, so chances are slim that I’ll see this movie in the theater, but we’ll see.
