Gordy wanted to bring Mel Gibson into the 3 Man fold. The choice between ‘The Patriot’ and ‘Man Without A Face’ was a choice of subtle Mel versus Mad Mel. With Gordy at the helm and Roland Emmerich whispering sweet nothings in his ear, there was to be only one winner…

Mel stars as Benjamin Martin taking aim at the nasty Brits (and utter bastard Jason Isaacs) with tomahawk in hand.

Cross & Mitchell are of course renowned for their patience with glossy Hollywood crowd-pleasers, what did they make of this epic?

(I should’ve picked Man Without A Face).
