Casey Affleck Makes Documentary

Who could be in a better position to understand Joaquin Phoenix than Casey Affleck? They're both the younger brothers of superstars — Casey's big bro Ben Affleck and Joaquin's revered late sibling River Phoenix — who have managed to step out of the shadows and earn accolades of their own.

And what better way for Casey to begin his new career as a director than to make a documentary about Joaquin, who recently retired from acting (or so he says) to focus on making music?

So that was the scene on Friday night at club LAVO inside The Palazzo in Las Vegas, where a barely recognizable Joaquin, who surprised many with his singing chops when he portrayed Johnny Cash in Walk the Line, stepped on stage before a curious crowd and in front of Casey's cameras.
