Was Mary ever angry at her son's plaintiffs, executioners and judges?

She is our mother and Mother of Mercy, no less, but could she have felt anger or the temptation to anger as Jesus Christ, her son, was able to feel temptation from the devil and as he busted the vendors’ things up in the temple in anger (of course, perfectly righteous anger expressed with perfect prudence, temperance and such).

I was watching “The Last Samurai” a little while ago and the wife of the one Cruise slays is ordered to take care of him by her lord. She does her duty so quietly, patiently (despite all his belly-achin’) and well-done that you might not have known the one he killed was her husband. She is angry and maybe rage went through her mind as she carried out her duty to her lord (of course, that would not have been Mary’s weakness) and she complained about it to her lord, which isn’t so bad (I think some saints have faithfully asked why this is happening to them), but she did her duty the best she could.
I wondered if the Church has knowledge or any saints had visions as to whether Mary experienced anger during or after her son died or whether she does so when we sin–especially those of us who know better.
 
Mary’s will was always in union with the will of God, and she was selfless with regard to her Son suffering for the sins of all mankind.

Her oneness with the Will of God was portrayed so well in the movie “The Passion of the Christ”. Just by looking at Jesus she was a source of support for him.

That would explain, for me, that she did not have anger for those who caused His pain, but yearned for their souls to be saved, just as her Son did.
