“Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie” — which incorporates documentary, archival and scripted elements — recounts Fox’s extraordinary story in his own words: the improbable tale of an undersized kid from a Canadian army base who rose to the heights of stardom in 1980s Hollywood.

The account of Fox’s public life, full of nostalgic thrills and cinematic gloss, unspools alongside his never-before-seen private journey, including the years that followed his diagnosis, at 29, with Parkinson’s disease.

Intimate and honest, and produced with unprecedented access to Fox and his family, the film chronicles Fox’s personal and professional triumphs and travails, and explores what happens when an incurable optimist confronts an incurable disease.

With a mix of adventure and romance, comedy and drama, watching the film will feel like … well, like a Michael J. Fox movie.

“Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre May 12-18. Showtimes will be Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, May 12, 13, 14 and 15 at 3:30 p.m.; and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, May 16, 17 and 18 at 6:30 p.m.

Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.

Through the years, I saw myself as a herald—someone who could help people, through my writings, liberate themselves from programmed ignorance and institutionalized stupidity. Well, now that I am in the third act of my life, my understanding of how the world works has changed.
