cant help but noticing how he manages to honor his mother, his dad, his brother, steven, lin manuel miranda, all his supporters, and the musicians just in this short segment. absolutely a class act and a master of gratitude.

He comes across as a very genuine, kind, gentle person. A human being. Someone who is aware of their privilege and influence, and uses it for good. Increasingly, and particularly in Hollywood, that's a rare thing. Keanu has a similar energy.

It still blows my mind that a show about a red robot-man and his super-powered witch wife could hit you that hard emotionally, and yet it's such a beautiful sentiment and as Andrew showed here such a real human feeling, this whole part of the interview is incredible and it brought tears to my eyes, how something so sad can be turned into something so beautiful.

Just wanted to say I really liked the way Colbert handled Garfield's answer on his grief. Looked him in the eyes, thanked him for sharing, held his hand with both his own. And that's enough, because the pain they feel is their own, and you are not there to say you know it, because you don't. You only have to show that you are listening, that you are there for them. Brilliant.

[@Adriana-eu6ty]

But Colbert probably knows the feeling. He lost his father and two brothers in a plane crash, I believe.

[@jessykaros]

[@piepie3178]

[@iwnunn7999]

Didn't expect the emotion I felt Andrew talking about his mother. Not tearing up wasn't an option

[@lawrup]

This is a masterpiece for those who are afraid of being happy and have a avoidant personality that feeling of being loved scares the shit out of the person with this personality and that if they shut off their personality and in a specific mind set they would rather leave the world a better place for the next generation rather than being loved and when they are in a fresh relationship the avoident self sabotage themselves

[@Torey3D]

Agreed

Just about the most beautiful treatise on grief I’ve ever encountered.

[@hannahfenzl5682]

@@KickSilverOMG I don't exactly think that it's something to be placed on a scale of normalcy. Feelings, no matter who you are sharing them with, are the most intimate human connection. You never know what reaction you will get for bearing your soul as he did, and even though most people will come back with the kind response that this audience did, there are a lot that wouldn't have reacted so kindly. Andrew is strong to be so open in front of so many people. Because yes, even though it is 2021, and all feelings should be accepted, there's still that human part of us all when we begin to open up that says "what if they judge me"

He usually stutters a lot, wich is endearing on it's own. But the moment he started to talk about his mom he stopped his stuttering.

[@captlanc]

This is something incredible, how strong and brave he is. He takes deep breaths to carry on with poise. He is unafraid of exposing his vulnerability and emotions to the world. He is emotional but he doesn’t let them take charge of his person. This is what strength looks like. It is not the repressing of emotions, but the ability to express them without succumbing to them.

[@bobcatbigpaws5597]

He had me crying because I think I my beautiful mother who has read the Bible twice in her life. When she started getting to the point she knew she wouldn't be here to many years ahead was when she read the Bible a second time. She knew every word and meaning in the Bible with a 6th grade education and I can hardly pronounce many of words and the understanding with a full course education. My grandfather taught himself how to read and studied the Bible and taught this to his kids. He never went to school and was a brilliant person in reading and writing. He read many different books on religion and listened to tapes of a well known person who studied the Bible. I wish my grandfather were here to speak to people about what he learned because we would all believe in God and know he really exist. I believe Andrew is a Christian and by this his pain from losing his mother gives him hope that he will see her again in God's time to call us home.

[@anne_bckmnn]

One of the things I love most about this interview (and there are many) is how seriously Jon is taking everything Andrew is saying.

[@daniellamcgee4251]

The conversations end, but your father is woven into the fibres of your being, so you can't lose him. Even when his influence on you ripples out to others around you. And then in turn, to those people who pass on some of his essence to effect more people, and so on... The emptiness of loss of the relationship is the contrasting shadow that highlights all those bright moments that you have gained in your years of knowing him. And those memories, his love for you, are yours to keep; the smile through your tears for those personal precious moments. Even as the powerful waves of grief lessen, you can smile that secret smile of knowing, with gratitude for such a man, such a father, as part of your life, and part of who you are.

he’s such a poet. so beautiful how gratuitous he is and so in touch with himself and his connections. this is what a man is, we love you andrew garfield.

[@elenastone1471]

Andrew's Mother raised an amazing and heartwarming gentleman! Rest in peace to her and God bless Andrew!

[@neuropsychroberts8922]

I'm crying. All I wanted was a video to watch while I made a coffee. That was some unexpected beauty. 😭

[@MISNM0]

I'm watching things to start the day and probably feel similar to you bc of this.

[@teresitauy5532]

Totally . Best interview ever . So sorry for the loss of your mother ,rest in peace . Andrew ,you have a beautiful heart inside out .

[@belmontks3610]

“I hope this grief stays with me” is such a true statement. My dad committed suicide 7 tears ago , I love talking about him/listening to song that make me remember him, both in a positive and a sad light…My biggest fear is the day coming where I don’t get choked up/emotional when talking about him. He was the best.

[@lindzriddb]

I am SO sorry for your loss. You’ll be in my thoughts. I lost my dad 14 years ago this last October. I’ve never heard grief explained this way until he said it the way he did, and it was almost freeing, like an epiphany to me as to why it still hurts so much. I still cry and get emotional to this day when I think of my dad, but from this moment forward it will always be a “beautiful thing.”

[@BlankFormatted]

How can one not love Andrew Garfield ? He's so human

[@laurelrobbins8673]

I love what Andrew said about grief. I have to wonder if some artists leave us so soon because of the fire that burns within them. My son passed at age 36, and he was an incredible artist. I listened to those words with tears in my eyes for my son David, for John, and for Andrew’s mom.

[@LilyGazou]

I’m so sorry for your loss. 🌺

[@RobVespa]

The more I see of Andrew Garfield, the more I like him...

[@erikadavid393]

I cried over "I hope this grief stays with me". Coz I still cry over the loss of loved ones, and sometimes I feel I'm overreacting coz they passed a long long time ago but here you are Andrew G. telling me this is a beautiful thing.

[@julianaortiz09]

I’m really hoping he continues to get the attention he is getting lately, he is such an amazing actor and human being! He deserves this and more

[@williamdillard5060]

He touched Steve's heart with that one. It's so good to see in these dark, divided times. ✌

[@johaniffsofiz]

Best description of 'grief' ever heard.."all of the unexpressed love" 🥺

[@MsRose00]

Ditto!

[@artichokie791]

One day, even if it is 10yrs from now, Andrew Garfield will be seen as one of the greatest actors in modern history of cinema.

[@billybobtexas]

Hes a beautiful dude, man… at the top of my list of people I’d totally have lunch with.

[@ruraljuror1734]

I don’t know much about Andrew Garfield, but I too recently lost my mother (to COVID last January) at the young age of 59… I definitely cried at the comments he made about unexpressed love. So very (and tragically) relatable. 🥺

[@Rebecca-ez3nl]

I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️

[@ruraljuror1734]

@@Rebecca-ez3nl thank you

[@mayravaldivia7877]

I lost my father the same time as you, if didn't have a great relationship with him But I completely understand. ❤

[@PoeLemic]

@@ruraljuror1734 Sorry for your loss, especially due to something that all of us should have prevented. For me, I lost my father a few years back, and I think of him daily. I've done my best to move forward, but it's hard -- especially at the first. So, go easy on yourself. It's really a "tough road" if you were close, as I was with my Dad. He wasn't the best man that ever lived, but he did the best that he could with what he had. So, you are not alone. One of best things that helped me was going to some grief therapy get-togethers and doing some individual counseling. It sounds weird, but it really, really helped me process it. So, I hope you are moving forward and not being consumed by grief, as I was at the first. So, if you want to chat about it, I'll reply. Know people care about your loss, even if they don't say it ... So, you're not alone.

[@prayerwarrior3030]

I'm sorry for your loss. Too lost my dad last to covid. Grief is real and hard but one thing g I stick to in these hard times is take one day at a time. To take the time to grief..grief is normal. Most importantly is to keep the memories of your father pondered in your ❤ heart. Like the bible says there is a time for everything. A time to laugh ,a time to cry.

[@MadAboutBrows]

I'll be 44, and my mom died when I was 18. What Andrew said was incredibly beautiful and wise and loving. Amazing 👏

[@LilyGazou]

My mother died so young, I never had the chance to develop a mature relationship with her. 18 is very young to have such a loss. 🌺

[@K-Choi]

Man the way Andrew said in his interview with Stephen Colbert: “Jon and my Mother were both artists and they were warriors of art and they knew the power of leaving the world in a slightly more beautiful state than when they found it” makes this video hit even more in the feels

[@hails97751]

The way Andrew speaks about people he loves is so tragically beautiful.

[@pralina8051]

The most beautiful quality in a person is tenderness. Andrew seems to be a delightfully sensitive man, untarnished by fame, success and ego. This is so rare..

[@jackieblue512]

The way he talks about grief is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard

[@alainalively7924]

And this is why Andrew Garfield is my favorite celebrity, he’s so real, so raw and I literally love his sweet kind soul

[@steffanyrivera-smith3643]

When my dad passed, someone told me that grief is love persevering. It's so true!

[@xo.makenna28]

Stephen is so respectful to his guests. He lets them speak and he is so kind to them as well.

[@lukewoodworth2101]

Andrew garfield is the best

[@mariamysoul]

"Art can help us sew up our wounds" Thank you for the reminder

[@jacquelinel8156]

That is such a beautiful way to look at grief.

[@yomommastupid]

That part of Andrew talking so eloquently about his love for his mother really got me...

[@ramiroalfonso186]

Stephen Colbert is the most respectful TV host in history.

[@howardkoor9365]

Garfield is a beautiful articulate soul.

[@patriciahenao7843]

“She was the best of us “ ……………😢 I love him .

[@alishagodschalk147]

I have so much respect for Andrew because he was able to talk about grief in a way not so many people do. I love him dearest.

[@parkerevans8006]

Andrew is such an underrated actor. He’s one of my favourites

[@lorenzobouchard478]

What a man, what a man, what a mighty good man….

[@markhenshaw06]

You could never get a conversation like this on any of the late night comedy shows.

[@Mater_Lachrymarum]

He’s a deeply beautiful man, this was so moving.

[@jpjordan90]

Folks like Andrew are (or should be) the real 'influencers' of today

[@danhatcher4242]

This kid is a gift, all the way around

[@SoHoNYBr]

Andrew Garfield is the sweetest person

[@mariod2098]

I have heard two of the most beautiful takes on grief this year. On WandaVision: Vision: “What is grief, if not love persevering?” … and now Andrew Garfield on this interview. What a perfect time to hear these things. I’m sure many people needed to hear this and I hope it helped some. #AndrewGarfield

[@collinnc2001]

He truly said it best

[@VioletEmerald]

I've heard many times over the years that grief is love with no where to go, but I'm glad more and more people are sharing this sentiment broadly.

[@sarahroddey2937]

"grief is the unexpressed love you never got to share with them" is one of the most powerful things I've ever heard anyone say.

[@tasya3750]

"damn" one word can right out of my mouth while hearing andrew clapping

[@petradonovan5161]

The greatest line..."you sew up our winds"...love him.

[@SallyB_23]

Lin Manuel-Miranda threw a shoe at Andrew Garfield because he was so happy he could sing, truly iconic behavior

[@gentleeyes]

I'm grieving hard today and this hits right on the mark. What a wise soul he is.

[@m011ynice03]

I swear i just get emotional every time he talks🥺🥲😂

[@mayanksehrawat9504]

Love andrew more now

[@j.aghorbani5197]

Impossible not to like this guy. like he doesn't give a single bad performance and he is just soooo honest

[@Alex-lq1hq]

This is so true

[@hallwayshots1258]

i think andrew is such an expressive actor because that’s just who he is in general and he just makes it art. it’s beautiful

[@AndyInc1377]

I loved when he said “My two guys”
