Mel and Oksana

Mel Gibson is a man with all the rage and resentment of an Australian but without their sunny disposition.

Yes, I know. He was born in New York state. But clearly his upbringing in Australia gave him the chip on his shoulder he so lovingly brings to his movie roles.

And Oksana seems (a) to be in this for the money and (b) very naive about Mel Gibson. Did she never watch his movies? Sometimes buried in fiction is the actual man's true character.

Look how may times his characters have to go through the violence wringer. Talk about self loathing.
