Joaquin Phoenix SIlently Accepts The Adulation Of His Awards-Giving Public
As the emotionally devastating cancellation of the Golden Globes has given us a newfound appreciation for every last awards show moment Hollywood finds a way to give us in this strike-crippled year, we'd like to take a minute to relive the silent acceptance speech Favorite Leading Man Joaquin Phoenix (an honor not to be confused with Favorite Male Movie Star) offered on last night's People's Choice Awards.
However, we suppose we'll have to wait and see if Phoenix and his SAG brethren will be willing to take the next step in supporting the writers' cause, joining WGA members in a planned, E!-televised toppling of the 50-foot Oscar statues outside the Kodak Theatre, an act that will officially bring to a close this historically turbulent awards season.
