Mel Gibson not welcome at one Roslindale house

Brian Keaney of myDedham e-mails in a report that while scenes for Mel Gibson's next movie, "Edge of Darkness," will be filmed on Bradfield Street in Roslindale next month (in fact, filming of still shots started there today), crews will have to find a different way to light a key scene:

They wanted to pay (my uncle) to use the front porch for lighting or something, but Mel Gibson is involved and so my Jewish aunt nixed that. ... My uncle told the movie people exactly why he wasn't allowing them, but they are still trying. The tenants are upset, too, because they were going to get paid as well. I guess in the movie Mel Gibson's daughter is going to be shot on the front porch across the street.

He should invite Denis Leary and Lenny Clarke to yell stuff from his porch while they try to film.

Glad to hear that your uncle gave them a piece of his mind.

It is so wonderful to hear about people who have principles. Mel Gibson is a hateful person. His anti-gay and anti-Semitic comments are well known. I am so glad to hear about the aunt who told him to get lost.

Don't forget, Rhea, that he's also a sexist. The denying aunt really deserves a posh gift basket for standing up to his group's pandering.
