Garity's anonymity will be further shattered when he appears as his dad in the film Abbie!, based on the life of Abbie Hoffman. Has his dad sucked up to him to get Garity to make him look good on film? Not quite. "As the police were dragging me away and throwing me into their car," says Garity, "he pulled me aside and said, 'They never would have got me in that car. They never could have held...
