Description :
Mel Gibson may have made headlines for the wrong reasons in the past, but fellow actor Robert Downey Junior has asked Hollywood to forgive him.
The Iron Man star was being honoured for his life's work at the American Cinematheque Awards when he made the heartfelt appeal.
First explaining how Gibson helped him after he suffered a very public downfall with drugs.
SOUNDBITE: Robert Downey Jr. saying:
"He said, that if I accepted responsibility for my wrong doings, and if I embraced that part of my soul that was ugly, hugging the cactus he calls it, he said that if I hugged the cactus long enough I would become a man of some humility and that my life would take on a new meaning, and I did and it worked."
Gibson's world came crashing down in 2006 when he came under fire for anti-Semitic statements following an arrest for drunk driving - he also pled no contest for one misdemeanor count of spousal battery.
