Although I haven't seen the movie [yet], viewing only a short 1min27sec trailer, Joaquin Phoenix noticeably delivers a performance which immediately comes full view. You instantly become drawn into his world. It exposes the unrefined emotion people [can, have, do] experience with loved ones. By recognizing those interactions, we can [all] begin to grow as individuals. Learning to acknowledge both our shortcomings and strengths, we become more acceptable, less judgmental and content living and tending to our own lives. In time, our decision to be more loving, and a willingness to contribute and create a more tolerant society, becomes the norm. To me, his character reveals a spirit of passion, warmth, and intensity for life. This short trailer presentation further cements the extraordinary talent of Joaquin Phoenix, and his diversity as an actor. For me, it is a must see and a hope our country, with the current ongoing tension, will encourage viewers to live their life, with all its flaws, and not judge another’s.
