Lonesome Jim is a 2005 American comedy/drama film directed by Steve Buscemi. Filmed mostly in the city of Goshen, Indiana, the film stars Casey Affleck as a chronically depressed aspiring novelist who moves back into his parents' home after failing to make it as a writer in New York City. Liv Tyler also stars as a good-hearted nurse who finds contentment through encouraging optimism in Jim's glum world.<br />
Lonesome Jim premiered at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival where it was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize[1] but it lost the award to Ira Sachs' Forty Shades of Blue.[2]<br />
