The Still Life is a 2007 film written, produced, and directed by Joel A. Miller. The feature film is a drama that tells the story of fictitious artist Julian Lamont. The film stars Jason Barry, Rachel Miner, & Terry Moore (actress).

Miller stated the main character Julian Lamont's story and his tumultuous struggles were developed while Miller was on the road touring with the band Stone Temple Pilots. The main character was modeled off of his perceptions of Scott Weiland at the time. Miller wrote much of the script while traveling with the band as a roadie.[1] Miller made the film with his earnings while working in the music industry with a budget of 24 thousand dollars.[2]

The film won the bronze medal at the Park City Film Music Festival. After its festival circuit run, it was released by Warner Bros.[2][3][4][5][6]
