Joaquin’s Glasses Get The Best Of Him

Joaquin’s Glasses Get The Best Of Him

Joaquin Phoenix was in France on Friday, May 25, 2007 at the 60th International Cannes Film Festival to promote the film We Own The Night.

Phoenix , 32, was accompanied by the rest of the principle cast characters (sans Mark Wahlberg) of We Own The Night. By his side are Eva Mendes, Robert Duvall, and writer/director James Gray (The Yards).

We Own The Night is a drama set at the height of a bloody 1980s struggle between Gotham cops and a Russian mob that targeted law officers and their families. That led the NYPD to hang “We Own the Night” banners in precinct houses and step up their efforts. Wahlberg and Phoenix play siblings in a cop-dominated family, with Phoenix the black sheep who ends up managing a Russian mob-controlled nightclub.

Check out the gallery to see Joaquin plant a big wet one on Duvall.
Anybody know why he’s trying oh-so-hard to break his sunglasses?

Oh yeah Jared love to see more of him … mmmmm! Altho he is sporting that silly glasses too, only Johnny Depp can get away with those. Judging from the one pic he doesnt like them either.

He is trying break them because they are ugly!

I love Joaquin!!! Total sweetheart. Totally. I actually met him once walking down the street and he was SO nice!!!!

those are the same tom ford sunglasses brad pitt’s been wearing lately. hes probably upset that brad got to wear them before him :D

anyway, thanks a lot. joaquin is one of my fav and he’s barely mentioned anywhere

Movielover - thanks I’m glad Joaquin is carrying on in his brother’s step.

Thanks for posting these great pics of Joaquin who is one of the best actors working today. He looks great and I read that the movie is wonderful.

Aren’t those the same sunglasses that Brad Pitt has been wearing in Cannes?

Joaquin is always handsome and adorable, a breath of fresh air with his humor and wit at these stuffy events. His talent and good looks are boundless. He’s a sweet, kind person.

moviegoer @ 05/25/2007 at 2:01 pm

hey those are the same glasses brad pitt has been wearing throughout the cannes festival. i only remember them because they are SUPER GIRLY…no i meant, SUPER UGLY. haha -

Constance @ 05/25/2007 at 2:27 pm

i dont have any idea but brad had the same for his photocalls!! Sorry but i think brad is way hotter with them and without them actually!! LOOOL

I LOVE JOAQUIN !!!

julia weinstein @ 05/25/2007 at 3:32 pm

hes dreadfully ugly, his brother was a cutie though.

His brother was cuter. I mean, I hear all these women raving about him, but he’s okay. I don’t even like him much as an actor.

I don’t get it.

i love joaquin!
he’s perfect..in every possible way!
its just so good to see him again!

and i can’t wait for WOTN! woooot!

A fine actor in todays film industry. Hes fabulous to watch in films not to mention great to look at. Looking fwd to seeing his upcoming films. Wakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!

Love him to bbits amazing actor, and gorgeous to boot

Anyone know why Mark didn’t show?

I’ve been a fan of Joaquins for 12+ years and he has had those same god damn shoes all these years! I love him but damnit it’s time to get some new ones. He’s at CANNES for gosh sakes wear something new!!!! love ya Joaquiny..but please we need a change..the whole im too good for fashion look is getting way too old for us fans.

i dont care about the boots he wear..
i like those, and if he feels confortable with them, thats good for me ^^

It is good to see Joaquin. We see so little of him. He does not dog the spotlight for constant attention the way some of the stars do; you only see him when he is promoting his work. This is good, because when you see him, it is exciting. Some observers are getting caught up in his looks and the comparison between him and his bother, River. They are two different souls. I think what makes Joaquin interesting is his soul. He seems a bit wacky at time, but it is a cover up to hide the true character, which is an intense serious man with a whole lot of depth.

I´ve read somewhere, that he is a vegeterian and he doesn´t wear leather clothes. Maybe he wears those same shoes all the time, because they are made from leather, and he doesn´t want to buy new ones, before the old are really broken? Anyway, he is a great actor and not that bad looking either. Sorry my english, I´m from Finland.

Satu-he doesn’t wear leather or any other animal products. The shoes he wears in all his movies are not leather even Walk The Line boots.

LOVE YOU JOAQUIN ‘ I’VE ALWAYS HAVE <3
