Hacksaw Ridge is an upcoming American war drama film directed by Mel Gibson and written by Gregory Crosby, Robert Schenkkan, and Randall Wallace. The film stars Andrew Garfield, Vince Vaughn, Sam Worthington, Luke Bracey, Hugo Weaving, Ryan Corr, Teresa Palmer, Richard Pyros and Rachel Griffiths. Principal photography began on September 5, 2015 in New South Wales.
The film is based on the true story about US Army medic Desmond T. Doss, a conscientious objector who refused to bear arms, yet was awarded the Medal of Honor by President Harry S. Truman for single-handedly saving the lives of over 75 of his comrades while under constant enemy fire during the brutal Battle of Okinawa in World War II.
Andrew Russell Garfield (born 20 August 1983) is an English-American actor. Born in Los Angeles, California and raised in Epsom, Surrey, Garfield began his career on the UK stage and in television productions. He made his feature film debut in the 2007 ensemble drama Lions for Lambs. Garfield first came to international attention in 2010 with supporting roles in the drama films The Social Network, for which he was highly praised and received Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations, and Never Let Me Go, for which he received a Saturn Award and a BAFTA nomination.
His performance as Spider-Man/Peter Parker in the superhero film The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), a reboot of the Spider-Man film series, was well received. Garfield reprised his role in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which was released in 2014. He has also performed on stage, and played Biff in the 2012 Broadway revival of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, co-starring Philip Seymour Hoffman. Garfield's performance earned him a Tony Award nomination for Best Featured Actor in a Play. Garfield also stars in 99 Homes, a film he produced, and Martin Scorsese's Silence.
A hacksaw is a fine-toothed saw, originally and principally for cutting teeth. They can also cut various other materials, such as plastic and wood; for example, plumbers and electricians often cut plastic pipe and plastic conduit with them. There are hand saw versions and powered versions (power hacksaws). Most hacksaws are hand saws with a C-shaped frame that holds a blade under tension. Such hacksaws have a handle, usually a pistol grip, with pins for attaching a narrow disposable blade. The frames may also be adjustable to accommodate blades of different sizes. A screw or other mechanism is used to put the thin blade under tension. Panel hacksaws forgo the frame and instead have a sheet metal body; they can cut into a sheet metal panel further than a frame would allow. These saws are no longer commonly available, but hacksaw blade holders enable standard hacksaw blades to be used similarly to a keyhole saw or pad saw. Power tools including nibblers, jigsaws, and angle grinders fitted with metal-cutting blades and discs are now used for longer cuts in sheet metals.
Mel Colm-Cille Gerard Gibson AO (born January 3, 1956) is an American actor and filmmaker (screenwriter, producer and director). He is most well known as an action hero, for roles such as Martin Riggs in the Lethal Weapon buddy cop film series and Max Rockatansky in the first three films in the Mad Max post-apocalyptic action series.
He was born in Peekskill, New York, and moved with his parents to Sydney when he was 12 years old. He studied acting at the Australian National Institute of Dramatic Art. During the 1980s, Gibson founded Icon Entertainment, a production company which independent film director Atom Egoyan has called, "an alternative to the studio system." Director Peter Weir cast Gibson as one of the leads in the critically acclaimed World War I drama Gallipoli (1981), which earned Gibson a Best Actor Award from the Australian Film Institute. The film also helped to earn Gibson the reputation of a serious, versatile actor.
In 1995, Gibson produced, directed, and starred in the epic historical drama film Braveheart, for which he won the Golden Globe and Academy Award for Best Director, along with the Academy Award for Best Picture. In 2004, he directed and produced the financially successful, but controversial, biblical drama film The Passion of the Christ. Gibson received further critical notice for his directorial work of the 2006 action-adventure film Apocalypto, which is set in Mesoamerica during the early 16th century.
Teresa Mary Palmer (born February 26, 1986) is an Australian actress and model who made her film debut in the suicide drama 2:37. Palmer was seen in The Grudge 2 in 2006, in December Boys and in the 2008 children's fantasy Bedtime Stories. She appeared in The Sorcerer's Apprentice in 2010 and her films in 2011 include her role as Number Six in the sci-fi film I Am Number Four and playing the love interest in Take Me Home Tonight. In 2013, she starred in the zombie love story, Warm Bodies and the romantic war film, Love and Honor. In 2014, she co-starred in the direct-to-video romantic drama film Parts Per Billion, the thriller film Cut Bank and had the leading role in the independent drama film The Ever After, which she co-wrote and co-produced with her husband, director Mark Webber. She co-starred in the 2014 black comedy thriller film Kill Me Three Times and in the 2015 remake of Point Break.
In 2016, Palmer played the female lead role in the film adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel The Choice.

Plot: Roosevelt Prophet is a one-time big city cop turned private investigator. In his new calling he has acquired the most impressive moniker of "Ballbuster". The thugs that he comes in contact with as the action unfolds, discover that it's a name that is well-earned. The Number One thug "Ballbuster" must contend with is Nick Plato, who's into everything from loan sharking to gambling. Plato's gambling affairs have gotten a bit out of hand and he now owes other seedy characters upwards of US$2 million. As a result Plato must put the squeeze on some of his own clients. Wouldn't you know it, this is when "Ballbuster" gets in his way. A pretty, reclusive, and alcoholic fine artist, lives in the building that Plato owns; she sees a woman get killed. She thinks it's Plato's seductive wife and she reports it to the police. Of course when no body turns up, the police begin to think the artist is suffering from alcohol induced hallucinations. But, she hires "Ballbuster" to get to the bottom of it all, and he does. But not before the artist gets kidnapped; he has a shoot-out with Plato's gunmen, including Plato's especially sadistic henchmen Hacksaw and Paycheck at an auto graveyard; has another altercation with Plato's group of hired mercenaries while trying to rescue the girl; and ends up having hand-to-hand combat with them. And what of Plato? How does this end?

Even the night air was like a blow dryer, so in the daytime he would stick to the canyons between the buildings where the anomie is enough to send you reeling, but in the evening he found a scene where that didn't matter. Maybe 200 people and some old amplifiers and when he was among them he was someone at last. Among this little scene people recognized the mind of a poet and a prophet with some wisdom of the world. I'm at war with the liars. I'm at war the thieves. I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace. But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets. There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief. I'm at war with the liars. I'm at war the thieves. I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace. But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets. There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief. The other side of this glorious life was the credibility of being dirt poor. You can't get a job if you can't get a shower, besides there's no fucking grandeur in being a slave. So his favorite transgression was big overstocked stoors. It seem much less harm than robbing of the poor. It's not up to us to question the way he lived but i have a huge problem with the way that he died. I'm at war with the liars. I'm at war the thieves. I'm at war with all this hatred and all i want is peace. But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets. There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief. I'm at war with the liars. I'm at war the thieves. I'm at war with all this hatred and all i want is peace. But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets. There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief. Some say, one evening he was caught in alley with his namesake in one hand and a new pup in his coat. The cops shot him in the face. They said he was armed. He's just a scared kid holding a hacksaw. I'm at war the thieves. I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace. But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets. There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief. I'm at war the thieves. I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace. But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets. There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief. Just another street kid, wasn't worth a thing. Nothing more to see, just go on with your day. Listen late at night you'll hear the streets ring. The sum of all this conflict and all he had to say was "All I Want Is Peace!"
