Today in P.T. Anderson and The Weinstein Company's world of hype: a new clip from "The Master," in which Joaquin Phoenix identifies some very graphic images in a Scientology-esque test.
Phoenix plays a disciple of Philip Seymour Hoffman's Lancaster Dodd. Dodd is a cult figure ostensibly based on L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of the Church of Scientology.
