what "Quills" is about - from Variety:
Rush, who won an Oscar for Shine and was Oscar nominated for Shakespeare
in Love, is near a deal to play de Sade, who at the start of the tale is confined in
an asylum, ostensibly for his pornographic writings. While wildly popular, theyre
deemed indecent and prompt his incarceration.
Winslet, Oscar nominated for Titanic, plays Madeleine, a maid who is de
Sades contact with the world and who helps get his feisty scribblings to the
populace. Phoenix is being wooed to play the role of an attractive young priest who runs
the asylum and engages in a
battle of wills with de Sade over the young girl.
Phoenix is agented by Iris Burton. The film will shoot
in Europe this summer.

According to upcomingmovies.com
"TheYards" changed its titel into "Thatīs the Way I Like It".
And by the way: if you go to ebay.com and search for
Joaquin Phoenix you will find some interesting things like the OUT magazine, the POV
magazine, a Vanity Fair issue and a Premiere issue with Joaquin in it. and Joaquin`s -
pardon, Leaf`s first action experience in an episode of the television show "7 Brides
for 5 Brothers" starring River Phoenix (also sister Liberty has a part in that
episode).
