These Are the Days: Walk The Line

If you know anything about me, you know I love Johnny Cash. The man’s music is incredible. I 1^st heard it just driving around with my dad in his pickup truck growing up. The song that always stuck in my head was Ring of Fire. When I started downloading music, I didn’t listen to country at all, however Johnny Cash made a serious imprint on my collection. As I started listening to country again more & more, Cash rarely left my playlist.

A couple years ago when Johnny passed, I really started reading about him & his life. It is absolutely fascinating thus leaving stoked when I saw they were making a movie on his life Sunday night I went to see the movie with my family.

The 1^st thing people should know is that it is completely not the movie u think it is going to be. It’s not a biographical movie at all, it’s a love story & only details a relatively small portion of his life. The 2^nd thing they should know, the movie is unbelievable. It may be the best movie I have seen in years. Joaquin Phoenix plays Cash 100% perfectly & performs his songs 100% Cash like (On top of it, all the actors did their own singing.) Reese Witherspoon, on top of being smoking hot, plays his wife perfectly.

I don’t think I can say enough good things about this movie. Both lead actors should be winning huge awards for the performance. In any event…. Go check out Walk the Line, you’ll love it.
