Joaquin Phoenix Hip-Hop Documentary Gets 9/10 Release

A movie chronicling Joaquin Phoenix's puzzling 2008 decision to retire from acting and reinvent himself as a hip-hop musician will debut in U.S. movie theaters in September -- and distributors insist it is not a mockumentary.

 Independent movie distributors Magnolia Pictures said on Wednesday they had acquired world rights to "I'm Still Here", describing it as "a portrait of an artist at a crossroads."

 The movie, directed by Phoenix's brother-in-law, actor Casey Affleck, will open on September 10.
