Czech Republic: Jews upset at Mel Gibson award


The 49th Karlovy Vary Film Festival kicked off Friday night with its highest honor awarded to Mel Gibson amid protests from the Czech Jewish community, which said the actor was spreading anti-Semitic views in his work. 
The 58-year-old actor and director, who shot to fame for staring in the “Mad Max” and “Braveheart” blockbusters, received the festival’s Crystal Globe for outstanding artistic contribution to world cinema.
