Ukukhumbula uMlambo iPhoenix, italente ephawulekayo kunye nomnqweno wobugcisa ongalawulekiyo

UMlambo iPhoenix wawuyitalente ephawulekayo kunye nomnqweno wobugcisa obungalawulekiyo. Wayengumdlali onesiphiwo, imvumi, kunye nomzobi owayenomdla wobomi kunye nobugcisa bakhe. UMlambo wayenesitayile esikhethekileyo kunye nendlela yakhe yokwenza umsebenzi wakhe owawungafaniswa nangubani na omnye umdlali wesizukulwana sakhe. Wayesoloko ezityhala kwimida emitsha kwaye ephonononga ubunzulu obutsha emsebenzini wakhe. UMlambo wayeyigcisa lokwenyani elingazange livumele nantoni na ukuba ime endleleni yakhe.

Andifuni ukufa kwingozi yemoto. Xa ndisifa iya kuba lusuku oluzukileyo. Inokuba yingxangxasi .—UMlambo iPhoenix

Ngaphambi kokufa kwakhe ngequbuliso ngo-1993, uMlambo iPhoenix wayengomnye wabadlali abathembisayo eHollywood. Ekugqibeleni wayeza kudlula kwi-overdose yeziyobisi esemncinci kakhulu iminyaka engama-23 kodwa ubomi be-Academy Award-yonyuliweyo inkwenkwezi yayintsonkothile kwaye ibuhlungu ukuba ingachazwa njengenye isiphumo esibi sodumo.

Ebizwa emva komlambo wobomi ovela kumsebenzi odumileyo wefilosofi kaHerman Hesse Siddhartha , UMlambo wazalelwa eMadras, e-Oregon ngo-1970 kwaye wayengoyena mntwana mkhulu kwintsapho yamagcisa amaninzi. UPhoenix akazange alifumane ithuba lokuya esikolweni kuba, xa wayeneminyaka emibini ubudala, abazali bakhe bajoyina inkolo ebizwa ngokuba ngabantwana bakaThixo. Le ntsapho yafudukela eCaracas, eVenezuela ukuze iye kuhlala ezidolophini njengabavangeli basemazweni nabaqokeleli iziqhamo. Babefuna ukubenzela ubomi obulungileyo abantwana babo obungelulo uhlobo lobomi 'locingo olumhlophe', umhlobo kaPhoenix uJoshua Greenbaum uthe kwimidlalo yokuqala yesizini yesibini Iphephancwadi labantu liyaphanda: Amahlelo , Ngokucacileyo, babefuna okuthile. Nangona kunjalo, enyanisweni, ihlelo lalibi kakhulu kwaye iziphumo emva koko zangcungcuthekisa uMlambo ubomi bonke. Wayengafane athethe ngamava akhe apho kodwa, ngokwenqaku le-Esquire lango-1994, umama kaMlambo umkhumbula egxeka ngokuphandle ihlelo, Bayonyanyeka, bonakalisa ubomi babantu, bekumele ukuba uphawule. Owayesakuba yinkokeli yaBantwana bakaThixo, uDavid Berg, wayetyholwa ngokuxhaphaza abantwana kwaye uMlambo ngokwakhe wathi waphulukana nobunyulu bakhe eneminyaka emine ngelixa wayekuBantwana bakaThixo kudliwanondlebe luka-1991 nemagazini yeeNkcukacha, kodwa ndiyivimbile. , uthe. La mabango kamva akhanyelwa ngumninawa wakhe uJoaquin kodwa imisebenzi yezesondo engekho mthethweni nethandabuzekayo yayisisizathu esibangela ukuba usapho luthathe isigqibo sokulishiya ihlelo. Umama kaRiver, u-Arlyn, uthe, Eli qela laligqwethwa yinkokeli, uDavid Berg, owayesiba namandla kwaye esisityebi. Wayefuna ukutsala abafundi abazizityebi ngesondo. Akhondlela.

Ngaphandle kobutsha bakhe obunxunguphalisayo, uMlambo wayesele eqalile ukuphuhlisa ubuchule bakhe bokwenza ubugcisa kwasebuntwaneni, nangona kunjalo. Waxelela iChicago Tribune, ndandidla ngokucula ezintolongweni nodade wethu ndize ndime kwiikona zezitrato, ndisasaza uncwadi olunemiyalezo eyakhayo. Kwakuyingcamango yoMlambo ukwenza ezitratweni, ngaphandle kwemisebenzi yehlelo, ukwenza imali eyaneleyo yabantwana bakowabo ukuba baye esikolweni. Emva kokuba le ntsapho irhoxobile kwihlelo, yazibona ingamahlwempu yaye ingenamakhaya eCaracas. Apho, befuna ubomi obutsha, banyanzelwa ukuba bahlale kwindlwana yaselwandle kangangeenyanga ezimbalwa ngaphambi kokuba bakhwele inqwelo-moya ukuya eFlorida ngenqanawa yorhwebo. Ukubuyela eMelika, usapho lwatshintsha ngokusesikweni iifani zabo zaba yiPhoenix ukuphawula ukuqala kwesahluko esitsha kubomi babo emva kwamaxesha anzima ababephantsi kwawo. UMlambo kunye neMvula zaqala ukuphumelela imiboniso yetalente yasekhaya kwaye impumelelo yabo yaboniswa kumaphephandaba-ixesha elibalulekileyo kwindlela yabo eya kwimpumelelo ekugqibeleni. Xa iParamount Pictures yabona iingxelo zabantakwabo abanetalente, banxibelelana nosapho lwasePhoenix babacela ukuba behle. Ngaphandle kokuthandabuza okwesibini, abazali babo babapakisha kwinqwelo yesikhululo kwaye baqhubela eHollywood.

Besiphumile saya eLos Angeles ukuya kuyenza. Ngelo xesha, ndandineminyaka esithoba ubudala yaye udadewethu wayeneminyaka esixhenxe. Sasifuna ukuba ngamagcisa okurekhoda eyayiyinto ekude, ndicinga ukuba, uMlambo ukhumbule kudliwanondlebe. Nangona u-Arlyn wafumana umsebenzi kwi-NBC kunye noyise, uJohn, waqala ukusebenza njengomakhi wangaphandle, intsapho yayisenzima ngokwemali. UMlambo kunye noJoaquin baqala ukudlala ezitalatweni besenzela utshintsho apho babamba iliso le-arhente yetalente u-Iris Burton. UMlambo waqala umsebenzi wakhe wokubambela ngokubonakala kwiintengiso ezahlukeneyo zikamabonwakude. Sangena kwiintengiso ngenxa yezizathu zezimali kwaye ukusebenza kwaba ngumbono onomtsalane ngoko ke sawulandela, wakha waphawula. Ngo-1982, waphoswa kuthotho lweTV ye-CBS yexesha elifutshane ebizwa Abatshatileyo abasixhenxe kubazalwana abasixhenxe . Ngeli xesha, umdlali weqonga wayeneenkwenkwezi kwiintlobo ezahlukeneyo zezifundo zasemva kwesikolo njengoko umnqweno wakhe wokuphumelela unikwe incasa yawo yokuqala. Ngaphandle kwento yokuba ifilimu yakhe yokuqala yayingumsebenzi kaJoe Dante we-sci-fi ngo-1985 Abahloli , impumelelo yakhe yokwenyani yeza xa wayedlala idrama kaRob Reiner's 1986 classic coming-of-age drama. Yima ecaleni kwam . Umlawuli odlalayo uJane Jenkins, owafaka uMlambo Yima ecaleni kwam ukhumbule umnxeba wakhe ovela kwi-arhente yoMlambo u-Iris Burton, wayenala mazwi anzima kakhulu aseNew York, uJenkins wakhumbula. Kwaye uthi, 'Sthandwa sam, abafuni gumbi lehotele elihonjisiweyo. Bane-Winnebago. Abatyi nto ngaphandle kwamandongomane namaqunube. Kwaye abagqoki nayiphi na isikhumba, ngoko akukho bhanti lesikhumba okanye izicathulo. Nantso ke isivumelwano'.

Oku kwaphawula ukuqala kwesinye isahluko kubomi bukaMlambo, waba ngummeli wamalungelo ezilwanyana. UDan Mathews, uSekela Mongameli oPhezulu wePETA ukhumbule, Babuza abazali babo, 'Yintoni le? Kutheni zibulala ezi zilwanyana? [Abazali babo] bathi, ‘Xa nisitya iintlanzi, le yindlela abazenza ngayo. Nisibulala isilwanyana.’ Aba bantwana batyhwatyhwa luloyiko, abazange bayitye intlanzi okanye inyama yalo naluphi na uhlobo. UPhoenix wahlala engumxhasi othembekileyo wamalungelo ezilwanyana kunye nomlweli wendalo esingqongileyo ubomi bakhe obufutshane ngelishwa. Umdlali weqonga ude wathenga iihektare zehlathi elinemvula eCosta Rica ukunceda ukugcina inkqubo yendalo yale ndawo. Ndifuna ukuthenga ‘ihlathi lokuqala lokukhula’ ndize ndiliguqule libe yipaki yesizwe, watsho. Yintlekele yomntu enobungakanani obukhulu. Uninzi lwamaIndiya omthonyama kulo mmandla aphulukana namakhaya awo mihla le, kwaye oku kuya kusichaphazela sobabini nawe, kuba kulapho ioksijini eninzi yehlabathi ivela khona. Amahlathi ashinyeneyo aseAmazon yimiphunga yehlabathi yaye ngaphandle kwawo asinakukwazi ukuphefumla. Yingcinga eyoyikisayo kakhulu kwaye ayikude kakhulu.

Emva kwempumelelo engazange ibonwe ngaphambili ye Yima ecaleni kwam , I-Phoenix yafumana impumelelo ebalulekileyo kunye nezorhwebo kwimidlalo eqaqambileyo kwiifilimu ezifana nefilimu ka-1988 kaSidney Lumet. Ukubaleka Ngokungenanto , ukufumana iAcademy Award kunye nokutyunjwa kweGolden Globe. Wayemhle ngokulinganayo njengoMike kwiGus Van Sant's Eyam Yabucala Idaho (ngo-1991) awathi ngenxa yawo waphumelela iwonga kuMnyhadala weFilimu waseVenice, uMbutho weSizwe wabagxeki beFilimu kunye neeMbasa zoMoya eziZimeleyo. Kwakukwalapha ngelo xesha awathi uMlambo waqala ukuzibandakanya nokusebenzisa iziyobisi ezonwabisa nabahlobo bakhe. Emva kokufa kwakhe, umama wakhe waxelela u-Esquire, Waya engonwabanga ngakumbi ukuba yinkwenkwe yeposta yazo zonke izinto ezilungileyo. Wayesoloko esithi unqwenela ukuba angaziwa kodwa akazange abikho. Udumo lwakhe kunye nempumelelo yakhe kwaqinisekisa ukuba unokuxhasa usapho lwakhe ngemali. Uyise kaMlambo wayenengxaki yotywala kwaye wayevakalelwa kukuba ngumsebenzi wakhe ukubabonelela. Ukhokela usapho kwimifuno kwaye nakwiminyaka yakhe yokugqibela, wayecinga nje ngokwenza iifilimu ukuze abeke abantwana bakowabo ekholejini. UMlambo wathi kum kulo nyaka uphelileyo: 'Kufuneka ndenze enye imuvi ukuze ndibeke imali eyaneleyo ukuze udadewethu omncinci akwazi ukuya ekholejini', umlingisi uSamantha Mathis ukhumbula. Andazi ukuba bekuyinyaniso na oko, kodwa ndiyamkhumbula esitsho.

Ngobusuku be-30 ka-Okthobha, 1993, uMlambo watyelela iViper Room, iklabhu ye-LA. ephethwe nguJohnny Depp nabantwana bakowabo kunye nentombi yakhe uMathis. Ngokutsho komhlobo wefilimu kaRiver uWilliam Richert, uJohn Frusciante (okhokela isiginkci seRed Hot Chilli Peppers) uye wasondela etafileni yabo, wanika uMlambo ikomityi yeplastiki eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka waza wathi, ‘sela oku, Riv, ikwenza uzive umhle kakhulu.’ Wasela uMlambo. yehla yaza yafumana ukusabela kwangoko. Intamo yakhe yabhodloza, umqolo wakhe wangcangcazela, waza wakhalaza, ‘kukhona undonakele.’ Emva koko wagabha etafileni. Wabhengezwa njengofileyo ngosuku olulandelayo kodwa ingxelo yeendaba yayimanyumnyezi. Umnxeba ka-Joaquin ka-911 ophithizelayo wasasazwa kuyo yonke indawo kwaye usapho alunikwanga ndawo yaneleyo yokuzilela inkwenkwezi encinci ethandekayo. Umzalwana wakhe ophumelele i-Academy Award, u-Joaquin Phoenix, uvumile ukuba kuninzi ukucubungula kunye neemeko zenza ukuba kube mbi kakhulu, Ke ngelo xesha apho usengozini kakhulu, kukho iihelikopta ezibhabhayo. Kukho abantu abazama ukuchwechwa kumhlaba wakho. Ngokuqinisekileyo, kum, yayivakala ngathi iyayithintela inkqubo yokuzila, akunjalo? Wathi nguMlambo owamcela ukuba angene ekulingweni eneminyaka eyi-16 kwaye uya kuhlala enetyala kumkhuluwa wakhe ongasekhoyo ngelo cebiso. Ndiziva ngathi phantse kuyo yonke imuvi endiyenzileyo, bekukho unxibelelwano noMlambo ngandlela ithile, utshilo uJoaquin. Kwaye ndicinga ukuba sonke sibuvile ubukho bakhe kunye nesikhokelo ebomini bethu ngeendlela ezininzi.

Ndicinga ukuba angenza iposta enkulu ngo-2020, utshilo uMvula kudliwanondlebe lwakutsha nje. Ukuba udumo lukubeka kuqweqwe lwamaphephancwadi, kutheni ungalusebenzisi nje ukuqalisa incoko ngemibandela esijamelana nayo sonke—ukuphelelwa lithemba, imozulu engxamisekileyo, okusesikweni kobuhlanga, amalungelo ezilwanyana, nayo yonke le mibandela efuna isicombululo. Wayekwenza oko xa yayiyinto yasemzini ngokupheleleyo emva phayaa ngeminyaka yee-1980. Umama usoloko esithi uMlambo ‘wasisicombululo,’ wayengathandi ukuhlala ecinga ngento engalunganga ngehlabathi, kunoko wayekunandipha ukukhangela izicombululo.

UMlambo uPhoenix wayengumdlali obalaseleyo owayenamandla angenasiphelo kodwa okona kubaluleke ngakumbi, wayengumntu olungileyo owenza konke okusemandleni ukugcina usapho lwakhe lukhuselekile.

Kulihlazo elikhulu ukuba asizange sibe nethuba lokubona ukuba umsebenzi kaMlambo ubunokuvela njani kodwa into awayeyiyo kulaa minyaka incinci isamangalisa. UJames Cameron wayegqibe kwelokuba akhe iqonga lakhe lonke I-Titanic malunga noMlambo iPhoenix kodwa indima yaya kuLeonardo DiCaprio kuba uMlambo ngokudabukisayo wasweleka. Wada wakhethelwa ukuba adlale indima ebambekayo njengoJoker ovela kuBatman Franchise (indima awathi umntakwabo uJoaquin waphumelela iMbasa yeAcademy yoyena mdlali ubalaseleyo).

Nangona wasuswa kuthi kungekudala, uya kuhlala engumntu okhuthazayo kwabo banqwenela ukuba ngabadlali kunye nabalwela indalo.
