Here are some very interesting excerpts from an
interview with Jim Caviezel for "The Passion of the Christ":
SCOTT ROSS: How old were you when you played in the film?
JIM CAVIEZEL: I told Mel, 'It is eerie. My initials are J.C. and I am 33 years old.' That was it.
SCOTT ROSS: The whipping and the scourging are hard to watch because that goes on for so long. I was literally counting the lashes. I watched people in the theatre in front of me, a small viewing theatre, turn their faces away because they couldn't continue to look.
JIM CAVIEZEL: You said something very critical there: People turn their eyes away when they see it, and what they're seeing is their own sin. It is not wanting to deal, at times, with their own sin. It's that hard to look at. But this film forces you to see yourself, not the way you want to see yourself, but as God sees you. There are no passive onlookers here.

Yup, he's the new villain. Whoa.

I was finally able to go home early yesterday due to the postponement of Death Star Inspection. For someone who was falling asleep in front of her workstation earlier that afternoon, I expected that I would doze off as soon as my head hit the pillows. But no. I was awake for several hours. And boy, that doesn't help.
Note to self:
Don't
Think
Too
Much.
Keep
The
Faith.
Right. Good. Uhmmm... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
