Joaquin Phoenix Slams The Door On Acting
No joke, Joaquin Phoenix is retiring from making films. Watch the exclusive interview given to Jerry Penacoli.
Phoenix’s latest film is “Two Lovers,” a romantic drama with Gwyneth Paltrow and Vinessa Shaw and would be his final performance. I’m sorry, maybe I’m just too used to Blockbuster Movies, but this is not the last movie I want to see Joaquin Phoenix in because it looks like a real bore. I want something like “Clay Pigeons” with Vince Vaughn.
Anyway, Joaquin Phoenix is giving up acting to pursue a music career. After learning how to play guitar for “Walk The Line,” he’s found a passion for music. So he’s doing the whole album thing and is rumored to be working with The Charlatons, not to be confused with Good Charlotte.
I’m sorry, but why would Joaquin Phoenix make such a definitive statement like that? Wouldn’t have been more prudent just to say that he’s going to be working on music? This is what you call, “painting yourself into a corner” because at only 34-years old I feel that he’s going to eventually change his mind. Fortunately, I think people will be more happy that he’s going to be in another film that dwell on the fact that he said he was never acting again.
