I'm Still Here
“He's done with Hollywood.”
MusicComedyDrama
I'm Still Here is a portrayal of a tumultuous year in the life of actor Joaquin Phoenix. With remarkable access, the film follows the Oscar-nominee as he announces his retirement from a successful film career in the fall of 2008 and sets off to reinvent himself as a hip-hop musician. The film is a portrait of an artist at a crossroads and explores notions of courage and creative reinvention, as well as the ramifications of a life spent in the public eye.
VIBE
This is a deeply uncomfortable, yet strangely compelling, deep dive into the public persona and private unraveling of a star. It's a bizarre, often cringe-worthy, and ultimately thought-provoking exploration of fame and artistic ambition.
