Similar to the comments shared by Mr. Maisler, Gaga’s ability to stand still beside Phoenix was also brought up; as said, “Joaquin blows your mind, but that she could keep up with him, and be real — and not just wiped off the screen by what that role is and what the performance is — shows she’s good. ”
