Joaquin Phoenix explains the experience with the words: “When you have reached the target weight, everything changes. Like so many things that are difficult, each day waking up obsessed with being over 0.3 pounds. Right? And you really evolve like a disorder. I mean it’s wild. But I think the interesting thing for me is what I expected and expected with the weight loss were these feelings of dissatisfaction, hunger, a certain vulnerability and weakness. But what I wasn’t expecting was this feeling that I felt like I could move my body in ways that I couldn’t before. And I think that really paid off for some of the physical movements that turned out to be an important part of the character. “RELATED: Joaquin Phoenix teams with Midsommar Director for Disappointment Blvd. Joaquin Phoenix on the set of his upcoming movie” Disappointment Blvd. “in Montreal 2/2 [ Via: Daily Mail ] pic.twitter.com/4kQIUtoHFK – Joaquin Phoenix Updates (@jphoenixupdates) July 27, 2021 Admitting the extreme weight loss was affecting his mental health, he said, “How it turns out, is that affecting your psychology and you?
