Andrew Garfield is mostly just known for Spider-Man, at least in the US. He's the funny, wise-cracking dork that most fans have come to begrudgingly respect, despite the perceived irrelevance of his Sony remake. He's worked on a few other high-profile projects, including the haunting Never Let Me Go and one of the most maligned episodes of Doctor Who in recent years. For the most part, he's a rising star, with most of his best performances ahead of him. But then there's this little, unassuming film he made a few years ago called Boy A, which few people saw outside of the UK. It was the story of a young man just being released from a juvenile detention center after years of imprisonment for a childhood murder. It's an incredibly circumspect, interesting film that asks questions about the nature of forgiveness and rehabilitation and second chances. Can you ever really escape your past? Garfield is a revelation, and he imbues the character with such humanity that audiences can't help but sympathize with his plight, even though his boyhood role in the murder is left purposefully ambiguous.
