I have seen this a couple of times and although im not a Johnny Cash fan but the film was brillant. The story centres on Johnny Cash's childhood when his brother Jack died and on his adulthood where he starts off working as an officer/pilot before he becomes an international country singer. Of course he meets a woman whom he loves although there both married people.
I personally liked this as the music is brillant, Joaquin Phoniex was brillant as Johnny Cash, Reese Witherspoon was brillant as the lovely June Carter Cash and she is one of my favourite actresses of the decade. Of course she won an oscar for her performance as June in the Globes in 2005. Also I love the story about Johnny Cash who was addicted to drugs and from the help of June she helps him alot with his life . If you are a fan of Country music or a sucker for true event stories then check it out.
Rating: 10
Best bit: Where Johnny proposes to June at a live gig.
Worst bit: Nothing
Verdict: Walk The Line is brillant
