The documentary of Joaquin Phoenix’s deranged shift from acting to rap may be a hoax but it’s also such committed method acting that it’s puzzling and disturbing and a brilliant debut film for director and brother-in-law Casey Affleck.

As a producer in the entertainment industry, Jim Cameron’s comments on
VanityFair.com are very disappointing to me and the team that made Piranha 3D. Mr. Cameron, who singles himself out to be a visionary of movie-making, seems to have a small vision regarding any motion pictures that are not his own. It is amazing that in the movie-making process - which is certainly a team sport - that Cameron consistently celebrates himself out as though he is a team of one. His comments are ridiculous, self-serving and insulting to those of us who are not caught up in serving his ego and his rhetoric.
