It’s been 10 years since Apocalypto, the last film Mel Gibson directed, and his latest effort, Hacksaw Ridge, already has comeback buzz and talk of it being a contender during award season. (Trailer above.)
The Lionsgate film stars Spiderman’s Andrew Garfield as Desmond Doss, a Seventh-day Adventist and Corporal in the Army who became a Medal of Honor recipient for saving the lives of 75 of his fellow soldiers during the Battle of Okinawa in WWII. What makes this true story even more incredible is that Doss was a conscientious-objector because of his faith and chose to go into battle without a weapon.
