Brian Cox says Joaquin Phoenix was “truly terrible” in ‘NAPOLEON’ “I think it’s totally his fault. I would have played it a lot better… I think he’s well named. Joaquin…whackeen... whacky. It’s a sort of whacky performance” (Source: standard.co.uk/news/londoners…)
@DiscussingFilm It wasn’t Phoenix’s fault, it was Ridley Scott’s fault
@DiscussingFilm It wasn’t His acting it was the script he was given bro gave a lot of emotion and meaning to the role but there’s only so much a good actor can do with a terrible script
@DiscussingFilm Napoleon was mid and all but Joaquin Pheonix can’t entirely be faulted for it He didn’t have a bad performance, he was honestly just horribly miscast. He did just fine with what he was given.
@DiscussingFilm Me watching Joaquin Phoenix put on the worst performance of Napoleon I have ever seen
