Joaquin is such a committed actor and hands down the best in the world
He is! ❤
wait hes a commited actor? whered you get that from??
@Hollow Skull Everyone can have their opinion on the actor's/actresses skills so I'm not going to argue with that :) For me he seems to be the best male actor of his generation ♡ And about the speech - I have to admit that I don't totally agree with all his views but he has a right to express them like everyone else, doesn't he? And I sometimes feel that people tend to think of the actor and his roles as one and simply forget that Joaquin had opinions like that (on veganism, climate change, racisim in the film industry and etc.) way before "Joker". He just wasn't that vocal about it or he was but not that many people cared as now when he became a true superstar. So he's using his platform. And he usually admits that he could do way more himself before preaching to others - many celebrities don't do that. So I don't know if he should lose all your respect for that. I'm kind of conflicted myself. Anyway, what are your thoughts? I'm sorry for such a long post, I'm just interested in the topic :)
@Hollow Skull he’s alright? How many movies have you seen? Joker? Joaquin is up there with the likes of DDL, Tom Hanks, Gary Oldman etc. Not a level above or below.
Dont say "best in the world" cause there are many who would fit that title. Just agree with "one of the best"...
Joaquin Phoenix is the quiet kid in class that does really good on tests and only tells people his grade when they ask
😊😊😊
evanandtimothy leandg yup and usually sits in a back window seat
FalconerPhoto Jesus it’s a metaphor
FalconerPhoto And you’re the kid who acts like a smartass but is really not smart and is just an ass.
Jew Hunter you got me
I feel lucky to be alive during Joaquin's career. Incredible to watch him progress.
😊💗🌺
I like that perspective
Same
is just an actor
Oh settle down ffs
Joaquin seems to be so collaborative and hardworking...a director's dream.
Yes! I think that's exactly how Todd Phillips described him in some interview I watched a few months ago😊
@@joana9039 I'm sorry, but how would Todd Phillips know.
@@bauhaus1961 What do you mean?
@@bauhaus1961 good one 😁
He sure has bent over backwards for a lot of Hollywood big guns
I want a detective vs serial killer movie with Joaquin and Jake Gyllenhaal before I die.
Who would be who?
Ruben Hernandez Joaquin the killer
@@maximogarcia8692 I was gonna say Jake should be the killer
And they should be Brothers...!!!😏👍
@@dcstar7772 YES !
He is certainly one of the top 5 actors of the last 20 years 2000-2020. In my opinion Phillip Seymour Hoffman was the same caliber as Joaquin Phoenix. What a great loss that he passed away long before his excellent performances were over.
Hoffman was amazing! So sad 💔 But he'll live forever in our screens 🙏🏻
Oh, yes.
We can only imagine if River lived what kind of actor he would be today, and what a collaboration between these brothers would be.
🙏🏻💕
So glad you did this video about Joaquin from his directors’ perspectives. This man has been a hidden gem for way too long. Those of us who love movies realize that although we might not love every movie he’s made, we’re still guaranteed that Joaquin will deliver a remarkable, nuanced performance that will linger long after the movie’s over. The success of Joker has probably terrified him since he can no longer fly under the radar and he’s officially considered an A list celebrity now. I still look forward to him continuing making brilliant choices and portraying complex, multi-dimensional characters. Thanks so much for this outstanding video.
And I'd like to thank you for watching! ♡ Yes, Joaquin is super famous now, but no matter how he might not like this - he deserves it 😊

I totally agree with you. I have watched his other movies and even thought I am not a fan of all of them his acting always blew me away. His performance in "Joker" is no exception. It's a performance with its own uniqueness, very different from his other performances. He is probably not used to be under the radar but, god, he deserves it so much!
@@giada951 Exactly!
His work in the Joker was his 4th academy award nomination (granted, his first win), the first being for Gladiator 20 years ago... I would hardly say that he is just now being recognized for his acting. He has been considered an A list actor for decades at this point.
He was thrust into the spotlight in 1993 when he made the infamous 911 call as River ODed outside Johnny Depp's night club. He and his family have never flown under the radar, as much as he might want to.
Wow, I can imagine trying to edit Joker. That's not easy. He's amazing. So many great takes.
That's must have been very hard but also enjoyable in a way - to have so many great options :) Look up some interviews with "Joker's" editor Jeff Groth who got nominated for an Oscar for his work on the film. He talks about the process quite interestingly 😊
I have loved him since the 80s as the awkward pre-teen w Nicole Kidman “To Die For”
The guy is so great that they write the movies with him in their mind. It’s so great to see that he is the essence of their creativity!!
You're so right ❤ Love this comment 😊
Exactly! Joaquin is a genius actor and a muse. We can only hope screenwriters are up their task. I'd also love to see him in those great classic plays by Shakespeare and the like.
@@drazulao Omg, yes! That would be amazing ❤
Makes me wanna rewatch every single movie with JP
😊👍
Joaquin's shoulder and lip defects have always added an incredible amount of character, to the character lol. Before I had seen him in more than one movie, I thought that maybe the lip was makeup and prosthetic. Same with his shoulders. It adds such texture to the film.
Exactly, the imperfections make it perfect :)
The talent this man has. The POWER he holds. This man is truly amazing, probably the best actor of our time.
❤🔥❤
Absolutely, he is so amazing!😍❤️🔥 Love hearing the directors perspectives also.
Talent? Don't ya mean a thirst for Vodka?
I would LIKE to see all 18 trillion versions of Joker. All of them.
YES SAME
#releasethePhillipscut
@@zztopz7090 #releaseallofthephillipscuts
“You were never really here” is his best performance. That’s saying a lot because his work in the Joker and the Master (and so many others) are so brilliant. “YWNRH” is his masterpiece imo.
I have to agree - it's definitely one of Joaquin's best! He barely speaks throughout the whole film and yet manages to express so many emotions through his eyes, body language and etc. The whole story is also very touching ❤
Nah his best is gladiator
Anyone else getting a ridiculous amount of videos recommended about Joaquin Phoenix’s personality behind the scenes and random interviews? I never even search his name yet I’ve seen like 15 vids about him that were all recommended. Cool guy tho
Joaquin has reached a new phase of popularity 😊
@@joana9039 It's a public relations push back against the invasive behind the scenes look at Joaquin having a tantrum on The Joker which was leaked to make him look bad.
@@michaelreilly3513 As it's been reported numerous times, that clip was fake. It was a prank Joaquin and cinematographer Lawrence Sher played on Todd Phillips and later on us all when the video was shown on Jimmy Kimmel.
@@joana9039 OHHHHH, I did not know that.
First time on youtube?
My god James Gray is well informed and spoken. No wonder he and Joaquin work well together.
Yes, James Gray really does make a great impression when you listen to him :)
Watching Joaquin is his "prime years" has been quite amazing as a fan of movies. He is undeniably one of the greatest actors ever to grace the big screen. Master at his craft.
That family has some serious acting genes.
True 🔥
The Master is his best performance. It’s the best of the decade.
I have to agree :)
Yes, and Joker is a close second.
@@fernana.wilford3923 stop it. Get some help.
Marshall Zane Joaquin and PSH in The Master are the two best of the decade and it isn’t even close, insane that two performances that good are in the same movie
@Jaime it's not a "close" second. His performance in The Master is light years ahead of his joker performance. I doubt you've even seen The Master.
I really loved him in the Master, Joker, and Walk the Line.
😊👌
Watch his role in Gladiator and try to imagine yourself trying to play that role.Its astonishing how much talent it takes
❤
Joaquin Phoenix was pretty cringe in Gladiator.
@@abramsullivan7764 dumbass
He's the Man...Love Joaquin. He is really amazing. So expressive, works WITH the directors and not against them....and a consummate professional with his fellow actors. Really a gem he is. I love seeing him perform.
❤😊❤
The Master is my all time favorite film by Joaquin Phoenix. Joker was also extraordinary as well!
Great to hear these directors speak on working with such a phenomenal and unpredictable actor such as Joaquin Phoenix. So happy he finally won that well deserved Oscar!
Yes! 🏆💐🎊🎉😊
Joaquin Phoenix is not an ordinary human... he is resilient! Understanding! Passionate! Caring! Loving! Smart! Honest! Real! How do I know? I don’t... I see him through his work and my heart speaks to my mind and that’s how I know he is a rare 💎!
Beautifully written ❤😊
I was 7 years old when I watched the first scene and I could not sleep for days.
I finally saw the film when I was way older, but I have to admit that it was unsettling even then!
whats the name of the movie?
@@Hello-qv3ot "Signs" :)
Joana Vitkutė thanks
@@Hello-qv3ot 😊
he's my favorite after seeing 'the master'. youre amazing man love his method way of doing things
I agree, everyone should see "The Master" - it's the whole another level of acting there 🔥❤
Its funny how a lot of times someone's "flaw" is something that people make fun of and make them feel "unattractive" but that's what I have always found sexy in some people. Like Joaquin's lip or like Freddie Mercurys teeth. I think that is the sexiest feature.... there quote unquote "flaws". But I do t see them as a flaw at all.
Completely agree 💜
Agreed
Brandi Mccarty yes
So true! I think these types of "flaws" is what makes them even sexier and more unique.
That short montage at the end when Joaquin did many entrances on the talk show set in Joker. Each one different and funny. No wonder Todd Phillips said they took months to edit the movie. I wish they showed all the takes! What a great actor.
he's a unique actor, he has something different, kinda like Shia LaBeouf. Theres a vunerablility about him, sensitivity! He can absolutely nail roles and immerse you into the character he's playing. Both very likeable and i think that only makes them stronger - the movies they appear in i mean.
So true! Beautifully written. Thank you ❤
@@joana9039 Thank you too :)
James Gray is such an intellectual guy, he's the one that best describes Joaquin acting and the one that seems to know him better.
I agree, loved his words ❤ James and Joaquin are long-time friends, so I guess that's why he's able to do that so well:)
Joaquin has reached 'national treasure' status.
👍😊
I love his acting. And really respect and appreciate his ethical stand, and need to express it, towards animal compassion and veganism. So I believe hes a good human being too.
❤
Honestly I need to see more of his movies, mainly the independent ones, but I can definitely tell from what I have seen that he's a good actor.
Highly reccomend to watch the not so mainstream ones 👍 Joaquin brings it every time! I especially loved "You Were Never Really Here", "The Master" and "Her" ❤
I love how he did Johnny Cash voice when he was talking about he treated his guitar.
Me too! ❤😊
I legitimately forgot M. Night used to be good enough to work with Joaquin
Daniel Cresswell signs was goooood
I thought the village was fascinating film
WAS?
IS.
M has always been hit and miss
You Were Never Really Here is so underrated. Probably my favorite Joaquin movie
I remember the visceral hate I felt back in 2000 at age 13, watching Joaquin Phoenix in Gladiator. Throughout the movie I felt a pit in my stomach. He was so wrong and so disgusting in every scene. His face was etched in my memory for years, before I even saw another movie of his. That is pure success as an actor. He is unforgettable and renders any movie unforgettable
So true 🔥❤
Like that kid from game of thrones.
Exactly my thoughts though I was 20 in 2000. That's his first work I ever saw and it reminded for a very long time. My all time favourite actor.
But I felt so attracted to him in subtle way......watching him nowadays makes me so proud....thinking back to those days attraction towards him....
Though i hated his rôle...
@@SuzeeLune same here . Such a phenomenal and gifted actor.
He is fine af
Oh yes! ❤
Agreed.
Scorpiooooo 🦂♏😈😏
Sexy af 🔥
Heck yeah!
My boyfriend doesnt like Joaquins acting. I don't like my boyfriend.
That's a complicated situation! Hope you'll be able convince him otherwise 😊👌
ok and?
I like Joaquin. I'm available :)
@@braxton5391 and they all lived happily ever after. The end.
@Ethan Rhodes wild, right?
The first time I seen Joaquin for the first time in the Gladiator movie. I knew then that this man was something special and the best at what he does.
Yeah me too jimbo. Thought he deserved best supporting actor for that
😊❤
I think I saw him first in 8mm or TO DIE FOR 😱😊
James Gray explains Joaquin genius perfectly with great insight. PTA also. This is why Joaquin is my favorite, he is the best actor with a unique creative pulse and The Master his magnum opus.
Agreed 😊🌺
Well this vídeo is giving me a great revelation, when James Gray compared Joaquin with Montgomery, I just scream! Monty is My favorite actor and for me was the Best actor of meth that I Saw and when James said this, I agreed, JOAQUIN Is like Monty and has some things of Marlon too.
So great to hear! I just love listening to James Gray talk about films and cinema in general. He's very eloquent, funny and always gives some interesting points. I can see why he and Joaquin get along so well:)
One of my favorite actors. He not only is unique and amazingly talented but has a real knack for picking the right roles and movies.
He is one of the few actors where you don't need to tell me who he is playing, what the movie is about, what the genre is, who's directing it, etc. Just say "Joaquin Phoenix" is in it and that's all I need to hear. I'm paying to see it.
I wonder what his brother River would have also accomplished if he wasn't taken too soon. And I wonder if they would have ever done movies together and what that would have been like. RIP River.
His acting gets better with each film !!!! 💖
It does! 😊💝
You should make a video on all the awards he got this year ( GG, Sag., BAFTA) to build up to the Oscars. Keep up the great work.
Thanks! I'll think about that 😊
Estoy segura que si no le das un %20 de libertad para actuar ...no te sirve ...es un actor extraordinario...Brando....Oldman....Phoenix....no vas a ver otro parecido ....no lo enjaules ...déjalo ser ...como la canción
Loved both of the films he did with PTA. I didn't think he could top Freddie Quell, but his Joker was outstanding. I desperately want more, but I'm not sure there should be any kind of sequel.
Watch You Were Never Really Here
@@shamus8687 Agreed! He was so good in it!
ive been waiting for him to blow up like in the highest tier sense. his performance in Her made me see the light
"Her" was beautiful! 💘 One of the most touching films I've ever seen 🌸
Same ☺
i dont know why he think that he is a hard person to work with, love his performances.
One of his best acting scenes is in The Immigrant when he is expressing his shame and guilt to the woman he "helped". It does not get mentioned much compared to The Master etc.
Agreed! I've judst recently watched "The Immigrant" and liked it. In this particular scene Joaquin reminds me of Marlon Brando 👌
Joaquin is an actor, by which all other actors will be judged.
😊💗

Joaquin Phoenix the smart quiet kid that everyone loves
Gus Van Sant - worked with River and Joaquin Phoenix.
He did! 💓
Van Sant said River was confident and Joaquin was not.
Not that either of those things are bad, just different.
I would've loved to see them work together in more than just after school specials.
@@bryanmmusic You have to consider that when Joaquin first worked with Van Sant, he was 20 and returning to work just a year after his brother's very public death, which Joaquin was witness to and which garnered him a lot of attention (some of it negative) from the press. The publicity got so bad, the family fled the country. Also, *To Die For* was Joaquin's return to the acting profession. After *Parenthood,* which was released when he was 14, he took a long break. When River died, Joaquin hadn't acted in four years. Furthermore, River's memory was still very fresh at the time, and he had been an acclaimed actor and Oscar-nominee. So, I could understand not being confident under those circumstances.
@@musicaltheatergeek79River was 20 when he filmed My Own Private Idaho.
The Master’ was Amazing and I still gotta watch ‘Her
"Her" is absolutely wonderful too! Just like "The Master" is ❤ Two very different and yet equally amazing films 😊 Wish you a nice watching experience!
This is so wonderful, thank you for putting this together!
You're more than welcome! 🤗 Thank you for watching ❤
Before this is all done, I hope we get Joaquin in a Werner Herzog film and then in a David Lynch film.
David lynch has been retire making feature length movie before Obama was even became president. That’s not happening
This is gonna be the easiest oscar of all time.
great post, never seen these
Thank you:) Glad you've enjoyed it!👍
joaquin became one of my favorite actors when i saw his performance in walk the line as a kid. After watching that I remembered Joaquin was also in the horror movie that had absolutely petrified me a few years before, Signs. Everywhere i look in Joaquins career i see movies I love, amazing artistic decisions, someone who refuses to be written into an archetype, and always trys something new. His performance in the master is insane, one of the most believable performances on film
Thank you for sharing that! And yes - Joaquin is simply unique and amazing 😊
Yesss you’ve done it again lol! You’re the best!!
Aww, thank you!!! 💚
He is in the category of Heath, River, Dean, Brando & we're lucky he's still here with us *
On the other side of that coin is envy & not understanding his weirdness for genius * by the acting community.
I admire him & hope his career is as long as possible. I am also so happy he found his girl & she must be just that :
special & authentic for him to fall in love
❤
Imagine if Joaquin would have been opposite Daniel Day Lewis in "There Will Be Blood" as the preacher. That would have been probably the most intense back and forth scenes ever filmed.
🔥😊🔥
In the Master Joaquin was as good as Daniel at least.
Paul Dano nailed those scenes.
The Master is Joaquin's best performance yet I think
Definitely one of the best! 🔥🔥🔥 Love it ❤
Cinematic soulmate with our friends
Joaquin or Leonardo as best actor to ever exist. GO!
I was Joaquin Down the street one day
Nathan Dust ha. Ha. Ha. 😑
Get out...just please get out.......
Wilderness Jungle -- Lol. I can’t escape it!
I'm not if it would work, or is even in the interest of each of them, but I'd love to see Joacquin Phoenix and Quentin Tarantino work together. That film would be sickkk
Same!🔥

So true 🔥❤
wonderful compilation, thank you
Thank you for watching! ❤
Amazingly the best actor, ever.
I have loved Joaquin ever since i saw him play Julius Caesar.
Maybe you mean emperor Commodus? He was maginificent in that role 😊 Because I don't think he has ever played Caesar.

"Stay there"
proceeds to change camera

undeniably one of the best actors
He is sooooooooooo underrated actor!!
I'm glad that he's getting a new wave of recognition right now 💝
Two golden globes, an oscar, a grammy, and lots of nominations? Underrated? Hmmmmm.
@@jasonhickmann4344 I see what you mean, but I think that now, after "Joker", he's famous and very well known worldwide. Like DiCaprio. It's sort of a new level of fame :)
For sure.
love the impression hahahhaha so funny 7:05
It is! 😊😊😊
Joaquin Phoenix the king of “React to” videos 😂

He was asked a question and answered it. Don’t understand your point of view on it. Sorry.
Joaquin is such an amazing person on so many levels.
