Two lovers

Two lovers

Joaquin Phoenix is a stupid and ugly looking mother-fucker. Last time I heard about him, he had a long assed beard and he was on the Dave letterman show preaching that he would give up acting and start doing jazz music instead. I caught a couple of his performances on the internet; dog-shit. Utter dog shit. But, back to the topic at hand, in this movie he was quite good. He played this jewish fuck up kind of guy. He plays two very different personalities with two very different girls: one stable and well grounded, the other, wild, mysterious and free-spirited. Gweneth Paltro is in this and she very seductively pulls out her left tittie in a well-timed and classy use of nudity. I thought the love scenes in this were somewhat tastefull, without being overly stimulating. Vinessa Shaw is the other star, she is hot too, but I haven't taken serious note of her in anything she has done. I loved gweneth since The Royal Tenenbaums. Where everybody was a star but the only one to do any real good acting was gene hackman. The moral of Two Lovers I guess is that you can take a chance, and if a better option presents itself, you shuld try to have a backup plan. It's a pretty good flick, but not so much a thing to watch with your girl. It kind of gives a weird feeling about relationships that I find unhealthy. Better to appreciate alone I suppose. 3/5
