Joaquin Phoenix and David Letterman gradually start to hate each other over the course of a 5 minute interview.
This is awkward in so many ways.
1. Joaquin refuses to be interviewed and answers mon-syllabically.
2. David Letterman goes from complimenting Joaquin to straight-up making fun of him.
3. The crowd is laughing during every awkward pause and they also laugh when Joaquin mentions his rap career, which is actually pretty sad and disrespectful towards the guy, but also a product of the general uncertainty over whether he’s serious or not about it.
