Mel Gibson continues in the trend of controversial films with his latest installment, "Night". In the shadows of "The Passion of the Christ" and "Apocalypto", Gibson shines behind the camera once again. Osment get the role of a lifetime as Eliezer and Gary Oldman gives a career performance as the deranged town elder Moshe the Beadle.
