With finals coming up, most students see College Library as the ideal spot to absorb temporary knowledge for its peace and privacy—just you and your books. But as you sit in your little cubicle reviewing old lecture notes, let me make one suggestion: do not look up.

After his DUI arrest and subsequent anti-Semitic rage this summer, Mel Gibson eclipsed Tom Cruise as America's preeminent crazy male celebrity. It's now impossible to discuss his movies, particularly everyone's favorite religious snuff film, ""The Passion of the Christ,"" without discussing the increasingly enigmatic man behind them, especially since his latest offerings have been so personal in nature.
