Joaquin Phoenix

Actors wouldn’t go near these roles.

Abandoned for 19 long years.

Clashing methods.

Huge industry names are backing calls to block the merger.

An opportunity denied.

Cringed at the lengths he went to in 2012.

A lesson learnt.

A difficult role.

Hated what his character had to do.

Suspicious absence of Paul Dano.

Directed by Todd Haynes.

A little oxymoronic.
