United Kingdom. Jury's comment: "George wowed us with his commanding performance in 'For Those in Peril,' evoking a descent into an increasingly fractured mental state with brilliantly controlled subtlety. And the range of this young actor's work is remarkable: in the past year alone he impressed as a singing soldier returned home in musical 'Sunshine On Leith'; as the romantic male lead of dystopian teen drama 'How I Live Now'; and the emotionally raw protagonist of 'For Those in Peril.' "

Motivation of the jury: "Very finely acted, and with small nuances, this actor expresses what it is like to be forced to the outer limits of human pain and sorrow. His complete vulnerability, isolation and despair are just as frightening for us as viewers as for his character and is very accurately portrayed."
