Most fans are accustomed to seeing Chris Evans donning spandex and, this summer, wielding a star-spangled shield as a superhero, but he burst into this year's Tribeca Film Festival as a different kind of hero. In the gritty drama "Puncture," Evans stars as Mark Weiss, a lawyer representing a nurse (Vinessa Shaw) infected with AIDS after accidentally puncturing herself with a tainted needle. Based on a true story and directed by brothers Adam and Mark Kassen, "Puncture" follows Weiss and law partner Paul Danziger's crusade to make safety point needles a standard in hospitals.
