This was a film that Gibson could not get the major studios to bite on. The bean counters did not think it had any prospect to make any money. Gibson financed the film himself. Hollywood execs. live to make money. Look at much of the dreck they release. To think that a film was actually designed to make money, and then the bean counters simply failed to see what they so regularly see in other projects, is ludicrous. And since when have subtitled films made money in America?
