Alright, hold onto your clown wigs, because we’re about to talk about the one and only Joaquin Phoenix and his performance in the “Joker” movie.
Let’s start with the obvious: Joaquin Phoenix is a total stud. Seriously, have you seen that jawline? It could cut glass. But, looks aside, the man has some serious acting chops. He’s been in some incredible films like “Her,” where he falls in love with an operating system (sounds like my last relationship), and “Walk the Line,” where he sings his heart out as Johnny Cash.
But let’s get back to the clown prince of crime. Joaquin Phoenix’s performance in “Joker” is simply mesmerizing. He makes you feel every emotion that Arthur Fleck (aka the Joker) is going through. You’re right there with him as he descends into madness, and it’s both terrifying and thrilling.
And can we talk about that dance scene on the stairs? It’s the stuff of legends. I mean, I’ve never seen someone dance so awkwardly and yet so beautifully at the same time. It’s like he’s doing some kind of interpretive dance of the Joker’s psyche.
But, hey, if you’re not a fan of the Joker, that’s okay. Joaquin Phoenix has plenty of other fantastic films that you should check out. Like “The Master,” where he plays a charismatic cult leader, or “Gladiator,” where he’s a menacing emperor with a serious case of sibling rivalry.
In conclusion, Joaquin Phoenix is a phenomenal actor, and if you haven’t seen “Joker” yet, you’re missing out on a truly captivating performance. And if you have seen it, then you know what I’m talking about. That dance scene, man. It’s just so darn memorable.
K at the Movies 
I’ve seen the dance scene, but not the whole movie. It could be an interesting watch despite some of my reservations.
