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.

He's one of those people who can look gorgeous or properly fugly depending on lighting, hair and expression.

Funny-looking works for me better than pretty-boy but I can understand why some people don't get it.

What was the “Casey Affleck stuff” ?

TwoBigNoisyBoys · 10/04/2022 19:43

Ah yes he’s lovely ☺️

@MrsPelligrinoPetricho, what’s the Netflix fi film he’s in?

Cocolapew · 10/04/2022 19:44

He gorgeous, never fancied River even though he was more my era.

PangolinPie · 10/04/2022 19:46

God yes, he's hot. I noticed him first in Gladiator and have nursed a crush ever since

Cocolapew · 10/04/2022 19:47

I think Casey Affleck was sued by 2 women who worked on a film he was doing with JP. It was for sexual harassment and he settled out off court.

AnyFucker · 10/04/2022 19:51

Thanks. I just watched Manchester By The Sea and discovered Casey Affleck. Brilliant, brilliant film.

And yeah, Joaquin is a very sexy individual.

booballys · 10/04/2022 20:08

I'm so happy about this! Grin

Have always found him attractive

HeathenPlayingHouse · 10/04/2022 20:17

Oh goodness yes! Love him in nearly everything I've seen him in, I'm particularly partial to Ladder 49- love me a hot fireman!

Liv999 · 10/04/2022 21:11

Joaquin is a beautiful man, I've had a crush on him since Walk the Line, I love that he's so into animal rights too

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 10/04/2022 21:20

@TwoBigNoisyBoys

Ah yes he’s lovely ☺️

@MrsPelligrinoPetricho, what’s the Netflix fi film he’s in?

It's called Her
MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 10/04/2022 21:21

**do NOT watch it with the kids in ear shot if you have any...or aged parents. My toes are still curling from it and not in a good wayBlush

UhtredsLatestPaganHussy · 10/04/2022 21:24

He doesn't do it for me. He has a cruelty to his face.

But I can see why he might appeal to others.

xsquared · 10/04/2022 21:37

I miss River.

SquirrelG · 10/04/2022 21:40

I agree - he's lovely.

MushMonster · 10/04/2022 21:40

I am with you. He is gorgeous! And a great actor, I love his work.

user1471538283 · 10/04/2022 21:46

I've always had a thing for him. Whatever he wears or whether he is neatly turned out or not.

ivfbabymomma1 · 10/04/2022 23:37

@TurningUpMyStereotype it might come to this

TotalRhubarb · 11/04/2022 00:21

He’s hot as fuck. I was reeling after watching him in Gladiator, playing such an out and out psycho, but being so attractive while doing it. And he’s been hot in everything since.

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 11/04/2022 08:11

Apparently dancing down the stairs in The Joker he did in one take and completely free styled it!!

Milomonster · 11/04/2022 08:35

I was on a flight last week, and the passenger next to me was watching a movie with the most beautiful man in it. I knew it was JP but couldn’t recall his name. He looks a lot older now but has aged gorgeously.

TwoBigNoisyBoys · 11/04/2022 16:55

Thanks @MrsPelligrinoPetrichor 😊 (and thanks for the warning too!! 😂)

ReadtheReviews · 11/04/2022 17:06

Loved his brother in a sort of pure way love him for acting ability and yes, certainly also would now he's older and beardy. He was brilliant in gladiator.

My hardest celebrity crush is Joaquin Phoenix. Far and away.

He has something about him - his attractiveness is unique and 3 dimensional.

I fancied my partner for similar reasons and was well chuffed when I snagged him Grin
