This just gets more and more bizarre. Casey Affleck now admits that "I'm Still Here" is a hoax after all.
But I can't help thinking that maybe he's just saying this b/c of the scathing reception to the film (although Gleiberman gave it a high grade). So, maybe his saying it's a hoax is really a hoax.
Check out these quotes from the same interview:
"I never intended to trick anybody,” said Mr. Affleck, an intense 35-year-old who spoke over a meat-free, cheese-free vegetable sandwich on Thursday. “The idea of a quote, hoax, unquote, never entered my mind.”
“We wanted to create a space,” he said. “You believe what’s happening is real.”
The article also brings up the Phoenix family's troubled childhood (which Namo pointed out to us when all this started a year ago) and mentions that it may have helped validate the perception of a man disintegrating.
