Profusely illustrated with both black-and-white and color photographs. "Mel Gibson's Oscars in the Best Picture and the Best Director categories for his epic film Braveheart signaled a new direction for this international superstar once hailed as "the sexiest man alive." One of the Hollywood elite wo earn a whopping $20 million-plus per picture, the American-born, Australian-reared Gibson has the box-office clout to call his own shots. But despite his phenomenal popularity, he prefers to be known as an actor and filmmaker, rather than a star, and has committed himself to spending as much time behind the camera - directing and producing - as in front of it. Packed with hundreds of photographs, fascinating "making of" stories, reviews, and cast and credit listings, here is the book Gobson has long deserved .and millions of fans have eagerly awaited. Noted film scholar John McCarty offers the most searching examination yet of Gibson's work both onscreen and behind the scenes -- from the seminal Road Warrior series, through the hugely successful Lethal Weapon films and Braveheart. Ever-versatile, Gibson has recently lent his voice to the animated features Pochahontas and Chicken Run, made you root for the bad guy in Payback, and starred in the hits The Patriot and What Women Want. Revised and updated with all-new photos and facts, this pictorial celebration reveals what fans have long known: There's much more to Mel than meets the eye. Includes hundreds of exciting photos." - from the rear outer cover.
