Magnolia is “Still Here”

July 14, 2010

Magnolia picks up the Joaquin Phoenix “doc” - is this schlock or a doc?

Oscar-nominee Casey Affleck’s directorial debut “I’m Still Here” has been picked up by Magnolia Pictures for worldwide distribution. Magnolia plans to release the film on September 10th.

Affleck’s debut is a documentary that chronicles a year in the life of actor Joaquin Phoenix (“Walk the Line”), when he announced his retirement from the film industry and set out to reinvent himself as a hip hop musician. The film is billed by Magnolia as “funny, sometimes shocking, and always riveting.”
