At fist, Joaquin Phoenix’s startling announcement, appearance and actions were shocking - suddenly and without warning he grew a bushy beard and said see ya to the industry that made him a star. Upon announcing he would no longer be acting, Phoenix stated that he would now be focusing on his music.

The same crew accompanied Phoenix to his now-infamous Letterman appearance.
