NYT - "New Film May Harm Gibson's Career"
Advertisements [?]
http://www.nytimes.com/2004/02/26/movies/26GIBS.html

Mel Gibson's provocative new film, "The Passion of the Christ," is making some of Hollywood's most prominent executives uncomfortable in ways that may damage Mr. Gibson's career.

Hollywood is a close-knit world, and friendships and social contact are critical in the making of deals and the casting of movies. Many of Hollywood's most prominent figures are also Jewish. ... Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen, the principals of DreamWorks, have privately expressed anger over the film, said an executive close to the two men. ...The chairmen of two other major studios said they would avoid working with Mr. Gibson ...

...

"You'll never work in this town again!" Interesting side note - didn't Michael Jackson say that Geffen was an anti-black racist, shortly before his latest scandals broke?
