Is it performance art? Is it mental illness and/or drug addiction? You decide!
Whatever it is...wow. I...I'm just...speechless. Holy hell, Joaquin...

Me, Me, Me!
- Lisa Draski
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- I graduated in May 2008 from Columbia College Chicago. I have a BA in Film with a concentration in Critical Studies. Film is my passion. I'm a full-time film buff and, more specifically, a classic film fanatic. I know the term "classic" is used very loosely, but I mean American films produced in the studio system between roughly 1930 and 1960. I love everything about this era. My second passion is writing, especially about film. I love doing research, deconstructing and analyzing films, and writing very academically and critically about them. I ultimately want to be a film historian, but I am also interested in working in archiving or preserving films. I want to write analysis or reviews for a publication, as well as my own books. Writing is a beautiful, artistic process to me, and I always need to be writing about film in some capacity in order to thrive as a scholar, a cinéphile, and a person. Now that I'm done with school for the time being, I need an outlet for writing about film on a regular basis. So what you'll find on here will solely be about film, with maybe the occasional entry on something else. I hope you enjoy reading what I have to say as much as I enjoy writing it.

You should have seen him on Letterman a few weeks ago. I think Dave summed it up when he said "Too bad you couldn't be here tonight."
It's a shame that a man of his talent is flaming out in such a spectacular fashion.
I actually have had a post about him planned for awhile, but this just had to be posted immediately. I'm very aware of the Letterman appearance, though.
To be honest, regardless of whether it's real or an act (I still don't know), he is not now, nor has he ever been, talented enough to be pulling this shit.
I am, however, utterly fascinated, as sick or hypocritical as that might make me.
But let me say this: if it IS real, he should be ashamed. If anyone should know better, it's him.
His Letterman appearance was entertaining, but that's only because Letterman's reaction was hilarious (he's only funny when disgusted these days). But seriously...who the fuck do Phoenix and Casey Affleck (who's been filming all of this) think they are? Sacha Baron Cohen and Larry Charles? If this is all for a mockumentary to be released in the future, the joke got old a looooooong time ago.
WoW! Resse Witherspoon said that Phoenix was probably playing some kind of practical joke.
I'm starting to have my doubts.
It's a practical joke. That entire thing was likely staged.
I'm loving this because the celebrity sights are reporting on everything he's doing. I'm intrigued by how far this thing is going to go.
