Joe Eszterhas
Joe Eszterhas and Mel Gibson had a global confrontation in April of this year over their movie The Maccabees. Heaven and Mel is Eszterhas' explosive, unabridged, no-holds-barred account. It is a Hollywood story, but it's not. It is the story of love and hatred, of anti-Semitism and fathers and sons, and of a movie star's tragic sexual obsession. It is the story of God and the Devil, devastating but often hilarious. It is Joe Eszterhas at his best: two-fisted, movingly sensitive, always outrageous.

Just because Joe found Jesus doesn't mean the rest of the world did too, clearly Mel didn't. If Joe was willing to put his transgressions aside to work with Mel at the beginning... Sorry, but money talks doesn't it Joe.
This was a waste of 4 hours of my eardrums shelf life. Im sorry eardrums, I'll make it up to you later.
Sounds like a has-been looking for a hand-out

Gibson who is portrayed by Eszterhas as a dangerous madman hell bent on killing his ex, played Eszterhas like a fiddle and Joe is obviously bitter about it and wrote this book to put Mel in a bad light but unwittingly did the same to himself.
Mel Gibson is a giant jerk who has risen to the top in a world full of giant jerks, what else is new! , I watch movies to be entertained, if I stopped watching movies because the people making them were unscrupulous there would be nothing to watch!

“Heaven and Mel” is the articulate and convincing narrative of the disturbing story of a Hollywood superstar with almost psychotic mental issues, which manifest themselves through profane-laden, bigoted, seemingly-uncontrollable, outbursts. Gibson’s inner demons are wound so tightly, they explode in fury whenever he loses control. Because of his continual and casual anti-Semitism, racism and ethnocentrism, I believe the intemperate explosions reveal the actual inner workings of a disturbed mind, not mere ramblings that are profane for the very sake of being profane.
I don't agree that the book is simply an anti-Gibson invective/screed by a bitter would-be associate. Esterhas credibly and seemingly-fairly paints an intimate portrait of a man whom he expected to like, but whose inexplicable ravings converted an incipient friendship into revulsion. He provides enough detail, along with his commentary on his feelings throughout their relatively brief association, that his story is more than creditworthy. The explanation is simple – Gibson is a viciously bigoted, self-centered, bad man.
Before listening to the book, it bothered me that Gibson’s despicable behavior attracted so much curiosity to him and his movies that he became even richer than he was before. After listening to the book, however, I was gratified to realize that he can never enjoy the fruits of his fortune because of his raging inner demons.
Hopefully, the last chapter has been written on the life of Mel Gibson. If not, I suspect the end will be violent … likely self-inflicted by Gibson, but, possibly, inflicted on anyone who is unfortunately in his orbit.
