    Character Evaluation

    Joaquin Rafael Bottom always lacks the sunshine and vitality of a young actor of his age. His sense of vicissitudes and depression are inherent and accompanied by a shadow. Although he does not look old, from his deep eyes, you can always catch too much mystery and profoundness about human nature. In this perhaps not-perfect film, Joaquin Rafael Bottom is also growing. We cannot predict whether he will become a dazzling star in the world film industry in the years to come, but we do know that he is a sky worth looking forward to . 
    Joaquin Rafael Bottom is an outlier in Hollywood. He always likes to play some awkward, extreme, or perverted roles, but his outstanding acting skills are still loved by directors and movie fans, but he never cares about Oscars. He always said that he wanted to stop the shadow, and he would always return after a few years of rest. He always flaunts his teeth and claws and leads an unruly life, but his gloomy eyes hide sadness, and his less upright back says loneliness. The roles he plays are often chilling, and not many people like the appearance in his life, but all the fears and dislikes are because they don't understand. Jacques has such talent and explosive power, which shocks all outstanding colleagues. He likes to play these kinds of "abnormal" roles, and he is also very good at these kinds of roles .
