After roughly two years of manufactured mystery surrounding Phoenix’s odd behavior and grizzly appearance, Affleck – who directed the film – is proving that appearances can indeed be deceiving.

Speaking to the New York Times, Affleck said of Phoenix, “It’s a terrific performance, it’s the performance of his career.”

Worn out by those contrivances, Life & Style keeps it simple this time, taking a Pattinson interview and pretending it means something it doesn’t.
