Jewison is just another Hollywood scumbag who has spent his life vomiting hatred on American and Western society. The Hurricane, a film so smelly in its raping of the truth that even the Academy Awards avoided it, stands out in this regard. Beyond his poisonous social and political views the man is a hack. F.I.S.T. is really his speed. He totally ruined Jesus Christ Superstar, no doubt in part because of the contempt he has for the subject matter.

No, not totally.
It was true to it's content --
looked, sounded stunning.

Tim Rice, of course, wrote
the content, the words. The songs
defined the story.

(To many "Christians"
that film "taught" them everything
they know about Christ!

Yeah, it's frustrating
for Evangelicals, but
it could have been worse!)
