Joaquin Phoenix does a stint as a department store portrait photographer (SpeedGraphic?), who eventually pummels one of his sitters out of boredom and PTSD insanity, in The Master.

An old fave of mine too Andreas, I was going to post it myself. As an aside I live in London and last year went and sought out the uncanny park where the crucial scenes were shot.It's still there, pretty much unchanged, looking slightly smaller in real life than it does on screen. It's still empty and strangely eerie too.
