Shia LaBeouf, the talented and uninhibited young actor had a rough 2014 that brought plagiarism accusations, bizarre apologies?including appearing at the Berlin Film Festival premiere of Nymphomaniac with a bag over his head displaying the statement ?I Am Not Famous Anymore.? Around this time, LaBeouf?s old pal Dito Montiel, who?d directed the actor to a stunning performance in his underrated 2006 coming of age saga A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints came to him with a new project: Man Down, which made its world premiere at the 2015 Venice Film Festival. When asked what the darkest point he had to go to was while making the movie, the incredibly candid 29-year-old actor replied, ?Suicidal, and? you know? you try your hardest, you know? You jump onto some other train of thought, or some other passion, or fall in love with another creative process and find yourself somewhere else.?
