Mel Gibson shoot displaces Mexican prisoners More than 200 inmates of a Veracruz prison have been transported to at least four other jails to enable the Apocalypto director's latest movie to be filmed thereMore than 200 inmates have been moved out of a Mexican prison, despite the protests of their relatives, in order to allow a Mel Gibson film to shoot there.The actor and director is to star in How I Spent My Summer Vacation, based on his own script about a career criminal who learns to survive in a Mexican prison with the help of a nine-year-old boy.The prisoners have been transported to at least four other jails, said the director of the Ignacio Allende prison, Gerardo Duran. Around another 1,200 inmates remain at the facility in the Gulf coast city of Veracruz, though authorities have not ruled out transferring more detainees to Villa Aldama penitentiary 50km (31 miles) away.According to the AFP news agency, many of the inmates fought with police last week after learning of the move. Relatives, who fear they will not be able to afford to travel the greater distances to see their loved ones and deliver care packages of food and essential items, demonstrated outside the jail last month.The row has been brewing since Veracruz governor Fidel Herrera Beltran announced in December that Gibson would be filming at Ignacio Allende prison, a location he scouted in April. The film-maker usually likes to direct his own screenplays, but on this occasion he is passing the reins to Adrian Grunberg. Grunberg served as first assistant director on Gibson's most recent movie, the 2006 Mayan tale Apocalypto, which was also shot in Veracruz.Mel GibsonBen Childguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds guardian.co.uk |
