Pissed observations:Joaquin Phoenix

Been in the pub.

But. I thought Joaquin Phoenix was lovely when he was in his 20s, I think he's doubly gorgeous in his late 40s with a grey beard. Beautiful man.

My friends no not agree. Thoughts?

Love him in everything, esp Walk the Line, Inherent Vice and Mary Magdalene.

I agree with you

FridayiminlovewithRobertSmith · 10/04/2022 18:08

I think he is gorgeous and think he’s supposed to be nice too?

RestingMurderousFace · 10/04/2022 18:09

Agreed. My mates thought I was insane to prefer him to Russel Crowe in Gladiator.

I still absolutely would.

TurningUpMyStereotype · 10/04/2022 18:15

Great actor and very into animal rights so I love him.

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 10/04/2022 18:16

He's hugely gorgeous in the new Netflix film...with a moustache!!!!

Ikeabag · 10/04/2022 18:32

I've been unable to watch him in anything since the Casey Affleck stuff that he (from what I can tell) just allowed to happen a few years back. Having googled around a bit, maybe he wasn't implicated in the way I thought he was, but the damage is done now. Years ago I watched To Die For (that and Drugstore Cowboy were on channel 4 late at night back to back, I had a Matt Dillon phase and I managed to catch both on one video tape, I definitely wasn't old enough to watch them) and after that, I bloody loved Phoenix back then.

He's my absolute dream man! I'm 34! I'd take him as arthur fleck! But weird? I keep trying to ask my DH to dress as the joker for role play (he won't) fuming

FlippyFloppyFlappy · 10/04/2022 18:36

I totally would 🤷🏼‍♀️

LTB????

andysgirl22 · 10/04/2022 18:37

Soo agree about him as the joker. Think that film is brilliant there are some stunningly sad moments particularly when he writes the problem with mental health is people expect you to act as if you don't have mental health problems. Not an exact quote sorry guys x

SisterRuth · 10/04/2022 18:37

He is beautiful.

TabithaTittlemouse · 10/04/2022 18:39

I agree. I think he’s probably really nice too (I hope).

Alconleigh · 10/04/2022 18:40

He's gorgeous, but then every so often I remember him in Parenthood as a young boy (I was mildly obsessed with that film and saw it many times as a teen) and for some reason it makes me feel weird. I've no idea why, it's not like I fancy him at that age (just to be clear!). Hmm

booballys · 10/04/2022 19:01

He's wonderful isn't he! So glad people agree.

He does sound like a lovely person in real life.

Never got the Joaquin thing, but I was made in love with his brother River so maybe that’s why?

OneThingAndThenTheNext · 10/04/2022 19:14

*madly

whenwillthemadnessend · 10/04/2022 19:17

Yep he is a stud muffin. Love him in signs
Also the film about snuf movies but I forget the name. Super hot in that.

booballys · 10/04/2022 19:20

Aah I'm happy now. I can fall asleep on the sofa happy Smile

Russel is a brilliant actor but is in no way attractive. I loved Joaquin in Gladiator. I've loved him since Parenthood. He is beautful.
Suzi888 · 10/04/2022 19:22

He’s vegan.

That should put you all off 🤣

Folicky · 10/04/2022 19:22

Just watching FB Legends of Dumbledore in the cinema and all the men have cheek fillers. WTF, has the world gone mad? Several have lip fillers too

EleanorDeCleaner · 10/04/2022 19:27

Oh yeah he was hot in 8mm, and I recently watched Joker and found it very sad.

Actually I once worked with a guy who was the spitting image of him. Now HE was an absolute bellend.

hidinginthekitchenwithwine · 10/04/2022 19:36

he has the most beautiful eyes and I imagine he'd be a very interesting person to talk to (and other things Grin)

Love him more for that. 😘
