Jim Caviezel w hołdzie Maryi (2019)

her hand that's God in my life in my career and and an incredible and at times Starlin ways for instance back in 1997 I had auditioned for a role that every big name in Hollywood wanted a role in Terrence Malick's upcoming film The Thin Red Line now the odds were against me but I at least I got a meeting with Malick I pulled up at his house Beverly Hills for my 6 o'clock meeting but I couldn't leave the car it was plagued by self-doubt I've made a decision and if this didn't pan out if this didn't go through it I was gonna have to hang it up I didn't want to just drift along the rest of my life wondering if I was ever gonna work consistently as an actor it is 6:00 p.m. I was still in the car I believe in my heart that the next 10 minutes changed my life forever in my mind I was a guy from Mount Vernon Washington I wanted to be a basketball player but the heck was I doing outside of Terrence Malick's house I'm emotional mess self-sabotage at full fury so I started to pray the rosary it's 6:05 p.m. and I'm still in the middle of the fourth glorious mystery you see six months earlier my manager who was a bit like a Catholic mystic said that I should start praying the rosary on a daily basis my wife Carrie taught me how to pray it so following orders I borrowed her grandmother's rosary it was a precious antique heirloom and I started running them through my fingers and praying without even really knowing the mysteries I'm already five minutes late for this major meeting with the most sought-after director in Hollywood and I've not finished the decade so I decided to press on hail Mary full of grace hail Mary full of grace when I finally finished the hail holy queen it is 6:10 p.m. I jump out of the car - up to the house but I realized I got rosary beads in my hand and I knew if I put them on my pocket I would start fiddling around with them in front of the director so I turned hills and raced back to the car to dispose of those beads I opened the car door and made a deliberate move to drop off this rosary when I get a feeling right here in my heart that I should take this rosary with me this was not the first time I experienced this sensation the first time I had this experience I was 19 years old in a theater in Mount Vernon Washington the movie had ended and out there in the darkness befriended only by my basketball and in the adjacent sea i had a sensation right here in my heart that made me think that i was supposed to be an actor that this is what god crafted me for him that this is what he wanted of me you could say it was my personal enunciation very deep awareness of my vocation so reluctantly I went forward my rational sense intervened I knew nothing about acting no agents no managers hell I can't even memorize to save my life as you can see but I had this conviction I had a charge so back on the curb in front of Terrence Malick's house I decided to take this rosary with me and make my way to the front door this little maid answers the bell and on her neck is a miraculous medal so I say oh you're Catholic she says no I'm not I'm Episcopalian come on in so this maid takes me in and she shows me the house it's a beautiful Spanish hacienda and as i do as we're admiring the ceiling while the woman is in mid-sentence I get this sensation in my chest again but stronger than I had ever experienced and without thinking I reached for the Rosary in my pocket and I interrupt her and I say this is for you man she's now startled she said why did you do that tears are now welling up in her eyes I said I don't know she says oh my god she said the woman that gave me this miraculous medal of the Virgin Mary also gave me a rosary that she got from Mother Teresa but I lost it and I prayed this morning that God would send me another one and then you walk in this woman is now collapsing in tears I'm shell-shocked there's a rosary in between us and in walks the director terrence malick when he started with honey what's wrong it occurs to me this ain't the maid this is mrs. terrence malick his wife and I thought well better hook up return flight back to Mount Vernon pal when I got home I told my wife honey I've got some good news and I got some bad news the good news is I may get the Thin Red Line the bad news is granny's rosary is gone that rosary and I believe that the intercession of Our Lady led to the first major role of my career in the thin red line we would be nominated for seven Academy Awards including Best Picture cut to the spring of 2000 I was offered the role of enmund on tests in The Count of Monte Cristo it was a new adaptation of the do ma classic this was the first time I had to carry a film on my own and here I was at the pinnacle of what I long wanted to achieve but I had no peace I'm having masses said for this movie in trying to pray but like you I was never sure if my prayers were landing yeah an amazing thing happened we are set to shoot a pivotal scene in the film in this grand house in Malta it is the moment when the count must decide whether he will remain with the love of his life or leave her to pursue his revenge and I'm I look up to the ceiling as I'm weighing this decision now in reality I'm looking up at nothing I mean there's nothing up there except white plaster then the director Kevin Reynolds who is a Baptist from Texas pulls me aside and says let me show you what you'll be looking at I found something down the hall that I think will work for the film so he takes me into the room about ten doors away and he points to the ceiling well I'm in shock I just standing there slack-jawed because there on the ceiling is a fresco of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary now Kevin Reynolds doesn't know a thing about Mary or the Catholic Church so I said do you have any idea what that is and at Texas drawl he says yield it leaves the room well I was hesitant to add to that yep for fear that he would take the shot out of the movie so I just kept my mouth shut but it was a sign for me a sign that the Lord and His Blessed Mother were with me through all my trials Mary had been there all along leading me by the hand guiding me toward her son in my vocation and if you saw the count to Monte Cristo you know that that shot stayed in the film and I am proud to say that I shared some screen time with the mother of God then inexplicably I get a call from Mel Gibson now my agent didn't call my manager didn't call I didn't know Mel Gibson I wasn't politicking for the role because nobody know what's happening Mel Gibson wants me to play Jesus Christ he wants the guys with the initials of JC who just happens to be 33 years of age to play Jesus Christ is that a coincidence I don't think so either shortly before this I was introduced to the operations and message of magic aura by my wife this would play a major role in deepening my love and service to the mother of all people it was that magic Oriya that I consecrated my life a my acting career to the Blessed Mother using the traditional consecration form of st. Louis Marie de Montfort from that moment on all that I did in my life and in my career was in her service to do with me as she pleased I also believed magic Oriya prepared my heart to give my Fiat to play Jesus in the Passion of the Christ filming The Passion of the Christ brought me even closer to our lady the more you experience The Passion of Jesus ladies and gentlemen the more you understand the compassion of Mary the connection between Mary and her son what mother does not suffer when her child suffers playing Jesus and the passion also reminds me of the call of saint john paul ii that we all must become co-redeemer with jesus and with his mother Mary on the very first day of shooting the crowd rushed in around me the guards hit me with whips which hit my flesh my arm was wedged under the heavy beam when someone yanked the top of the cross in the other direction my muscles wrenched and my shoulder separated I fell to my knees dropped the cross and buried my head in the ground this take now remains in the film every day I picked up that thing it was like a penance it ripped into my shoulder turning my flesh and angry red with each passing hour it got heavier and I had to hang on that cross it was November in Matera Italy bone-chilling cold and I'm up there on a cliff and only latex and loin cloth on a cross it is not the blood loss that kills you it is the oxygen loss you asphyxiate so I'm gasping for air my legs were going numb and guess what hypothermia to bring my core temperature up they brought in these gas heaters when they brought them too close my toes started to fry and the latex began to melt and that was before I was struck by lightning and soon to follow open-heart surgery but I offered up all of the suffering and union with Jesus and Mary for the success the film that it might lead souls to Christ the boy did it ever the passion reveals the abuse very obvious biblical truth that Mary like no other shared in the suffering of her son as co-redemptrix as st. Teresa of Calcutta exclaimed of course Mary is the co-redemptrix she gave Jesus his body and the offering of his body is what saved us the scenes of The Passion profoundly depict Our Lady's role as co-redemptrix with Jesus in fact a well-known Italian journalist stated that the Passion of the Christ could also have been justifiably called the story of Mary co-redemptrix for example in the film it is Mary alone who understands when Jesus has been arrested that quote it has begun what has begun the unified mission of Jesus the Redeemer and Mary the co-redemptrix to redeem the world when Mary walks the way of the cross with Jesus she stands opposite Satan she is his opponent Mary's role with Jesus to crush the head of Satan is powerfully dramatized in the Calvary scene the dying Redeemer gives his own mother to become the spiritual mother of all peoples when he says from the cross we hold your mother John 1927 in the final scene Mary becomes a living pietà holding the dead body of her divine son she looks to us all as our loving co-redemptrix who suffered in union with Jesus and calls us all to appreciate the price of our Redemption there are a lot of deep theological truths that Mel Gibson wove into the Passion of the Christ in this chaotic confused age ladies and gentlemen we need truth and it is true that marries the co-redemptrix Mediatrix of all graces an advocate for all humanity it is my hope it is my prayer that the Pope will proclaim this truth as a marian dogma so that every single living human being will know that they have a spiritual mother that loves them and who will intercede to bring them to Jesus their true Savior now why is this necessary if the truth of Mary is already the truth why does it need a papal Proclamation well look at the moment in scripture when Jesus asked the apostles who do they say that I am ladies and gentlemen believe me when I say to you Jesus was not having an identity crisis he knew who he was but he wanted the truth proclaimed when Simon Peter announced the truth that Jesus was the Christ the Son of the Living God then and only then did Jesus found the church and the papacy on the rock of Peter the first pope I believe Jesus wants the full truth about his mother Mary that she is this world's spiritual mother she is the co-redemptrix she is the mediatrix to be proclaimed by the present Pope so that our mother can utilize her full power of intercession to bring peace true peace to the world my friends [Music] [Applause] my friends in Jesus and Mary this present world scene [Music] he's one of unprecedented morale breakdown natural disasters and even greater global threats of war and terrorism are now looming in our meds the killing of the unborn and now born children sex trafficking children over 10 million now the power of Satan is evident no matter where we turn our whole world is in desperate need the peace of Jesus Christ it is peace both spiritual and global will only come to us as it did originally through the person of our mother our mediatrix our advocate at Fatima Our Lady promised that in the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph and a period of peace will be granted to the world let us trust in these words of Our Lady let us pray especially for our before our Eucharistic Jesus for truth and lasting world peace through the intercession of his mother the mother of all peoples we will she will keep her promise but we must do our part as Saint Bernard as written and as I have seen in my own life you will not go astray if you follow her you will not get lost if you call to her if she is holding you by the hand you will not fall if she is protecting you you have nothing to fear you will not grow weary if she is at your side but you must reach out to her my brothers and sisters be faithful call out to your mother pray the rosary for world peace or door Jesus Christ in the Eucharist and heaven will respond for I leave you this path will not be an easy one for our bishops our priests in our laity who accept this challenge in the fight to fulfill the will of God is never an easy one but from God's gospel a Mother Teresa's personal Creed they echo this sentiment blessed are you when the people hate you when they exclude you when they insult you when they reject your very name is evil because of the Son of man in the final analysis it is between you and God it was never between you and them anyway so yes your name may not appear down here in this world's Hall of Fame in fact you may be so unknown that no one knows your name the Oscars in the praise of men may never come your way don't forget God has rewards that he'll hand out someday this crowd on earth they will soon forget when you're not at the top they will cheer like mad until you've fallen and their praise will stop not God he never does forget and in his hall of fame by just believing on his son forever there's your name I tell you friend I wouldn't trade my name however small it's written there beyond the stars in that celestial hall for all the famous names on earth with a glory that they share ladies and gentlemen I'd rather be an unknown here have my name up there god bless you [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] you
