Andrew Garfield remembered working with Mel Gibson on the 2016 film Hacksaw Ridge, one decade after the director's DUI arrest and anti-semitic remarks.

Gibson directed Hacksaw Ridge a decade after he was arrested in July 2006 on suspicion of driving while intoxicated along the Pacific Coast highway in Malibu, California.
