*Happy Birthday to Heart Phoenix :)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

30-12-Joaquin is in the dutch magazine Starstyle (with Winona Ryder on the cover) JOAQUIN PHOENIX, 4 pages article with a lot of photos I will try to go to the magazine store tomorrow :)

The text on that page from Starstyle (I tried to translate it as best as I could :))

Joaquin Phoenix: A bit weird but really yummy

When his brother died before his eyes, the world stopped for a moment. Now 10 years later, his more famous then his brother. Insecure till the bone, but as soon as the cameras start rolling you can't notice that anymore. With a look that say Thunder, plays he all the competition easy from the screen.

*The year's BEST MOVIES from HERE, at number 5 SIGNS

5. SIGNS: In this tale of a family besieged by nasty extraterrestrials, M. Night Shyamalan does for alien movies what he did for ghosts in The Sixth Sense. It's filmmaking at its inventive best and it gave Mel Gibson and Joaquin Phoenix a chance to shine.

*The first “It is all about love” review from the Danish movie Critics Program “ Frid’s  Movies” on The Danish Channel 3.
 
IAAL review by Niels Frid.
 
We are in New York  in the year 2021. Phoenix is coming to town to get a divorce from his wife. But she has been involved in a cloning affair that threatens both their lives. Yes the story is a bit brooding and even though IAAL at momentarily is beautiful and fascinating, you cannot hide that it is a huge disappointment from a great director. The expectations has been too high. The movie has been waiting for a premiere for around half a year, and now we understand why. Neither Penn or Phoenix can save the movie, that at the most will be remembered as a interlude in Vinterberg’s production.
 
I will only give two Christmas stars out of 6. One for the good intentions and one for the beautiful snowy weather in the movie. 

*Brand new Thomas Vinterberg interview just before the IAAL premiere from the Danish newspaper Berlingske Tidende December the 25th. By journalist Miriam Katz You can read it HERE Big thanks to Marissa for trandslating the article :)

'Signs' of the times
The high-profiled sci-fi chiller, M. Night Shyamalan's Signs, debuts Jan. 7 ($29.99 DVD/$22.99 VHS), via Touchstone Home Entertainment. The combo alien-invasion/family drama stars a quietly effective Mel Gibson as a tormented former minister, Joaquin Phoenix as his younger brother, and Rory Culkin and Abigail Breslin as his son and daughter. The DVD includes over a half-dozen behind-the-scenes featurettes, deleted scenes, storyboards, companion booklet and more, all supervised by writer/director Shyamalan, who made his mark with "The Sixth Sense."

Some quotes from Joaquin about the movies

Joaquin Phoenix : 

“I decided to take the part because of three elements: the screenplay, Thomas Vinterberg and Claire Danes.”

“I thought that John was an amazing character to play, it was beautiful story and I very much wanted to work with Thomas and Claire. 

“There is something in the character of John that I haven’t found before and that I wanted to 
explore – and an openness and sensitivity in the character. I really enjoyed the thought of playing this man – going through his experience.”
