    He’s THE best. I used to help him when he’d come into my video store in Hollywood and he couldn’t have been kinder or more enthusiastic to talk about movies. Just adored him. Even stopped to take a photo with a little kid who asked him, “are you Spider-Man?!” Class act all the way! Still my dream to work with him on some weird indie movie like the ones we used to discuss!

      I always suspected he was ACTUALLY the person he presents himself to be in these kind of moments. Many other A list celebs present a "real, normal" personality, and if they're great actors its hard to determine if they're being them or someone the crowd will find fun/funny/relatable to boost their popularity. There was something about Garfield, where I always felt he was genuinely being himself. Hearing your story makes me feel pretty confident that he's a genuine guy who's a good dude. If that's indeed the case, don't change Andrew. You seem like a good (slightly nerdy) person with a great heart that anyone could be friends with. Your non-actor friends probably think you're a bit of a cinema nerd which very endearing.

I remember just after the first minutes I was in the theater like : "OK, I can feel this is a film I'm gonna love, and I will never forget it " :) After another few scenes I was like : "Please, lord, may that film be perfect like that until its ending !" And at the end credits with "Strange Currencies" by REM I was like : "Thank you lord" LOL Anyway Andrew was simply amazing in that sooooo underrated film !! :) Greetings from France :)

      Under the Silver Lake for me is a top 10 film of the 2010's and it's genuinely baffling to think about how that film was released, such a shame. If the Director's name was simply swapped to Stanley Kubrick instead of the lesser-known actual name David Robert Mitchell, it'd be considered a modern classic.

      Chris Hemsworth is a perfect example of this because in 2013 he stared in Ron Howard’s Rush which I heard was a great movie and shows that Hemsworth has range outside of generic superhero movies but unfortunately while the film did well it apparently didn’t do well enough for Hemsworth to continue doing more unique roles and sadly he returned to doing his same schtick in superhero movies which is pretty disappointing.
