The original house, where he apparently still lives, was featured in I’m Still Here, a 2010 mockumentary directed by Casey Affleck. In the fake film, Phoenix claimed to have quit acting to pursue a second career as an actor. A lot of fans were taken in, and Affleck himself has said that he considered it a hoax.
Phoenix appeared on David Letterman to say that he thought that it was obviously a joke and that he never intended to fool anyone.
Be that as it may, the nearly $5 million house itself has been dismissed as “ordinary,” and it’s almost undeniable that Phoenix bought at the wrong time to get the best price. So we’ll just have to hope he got a tax write-off for its use in the film.
Even though it’s $3.4 million less than the first, the new Joaquin Phoenix home might seem overpriced to most of America. It has an eat-in kitchen and three bedrooms but for over a million bucks, a big closet in the master bedroom and a refurbished bath are the least of what we expect.
Of course, he’s really paying for the convenience of adding a new place right next door. Even after the crash, real estate prices in Los Angeles can be eye-popping.
