But he got out of town a few years ago, and produced some of his freshest films in years, if not some of his best ever.

He's insisted his new look and career goals are no hoax, but a shaggy and soft-spoken Joaquin Phoenix seemed like the only one in on a private joke during an awkward appearance on Wednesday's Late Show.

And it’s understandable that if he makes some bad movies (which he has throughout his career) and then makes a great film (which he’s made a ton of).
