About this listen

For our first podcast of 2026 we review Hacksaw Ridge (2016), directed by Mel Gibson and starring Andrew Garfield.


The film tells the remarkable true story of Desmond Doss, a World War II medic who refused to carry a weapon due to his faith but went on to save 75 men during the Battle of Okinawa, becoming the first conscientious objector to receive the Medal of Honor.


Is Hacksaw Ridge simply a brutal war film, or is it one of the most inspiring true stories ever brought to the screen?
