    “Walk the Line” Movie Review

    “Walk the Line” Plot Summary

    A chronicle of country music legend Johnny Cash’s life, from his early days on an Arkansas cotton farm to his rise to fame with Sun Records in Memphis, where he recorded alongside Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins. add synopsis

    Johnny would be proud.

    Hello, I’m Johnny Cash

    I’ve seen a lot of singer biopics: all the way from the Buddy Holly Story to Coal Miner’s Daughter. This one can’t quite make it to Coal Miner, but it’s light years ahead of Buddy. I read a review today that said that Joaquin was too short and Reese was too pretty to play Johnny and June. The reviewer was right, but what the hell does that have to do with great acting. They got it right and this old hillbilly cried, that’s right–cried–at every historical landmark they hit. Oscars for Joaquin and Reese–that’s all I want.woody pulpsWalk The Line update 03/19/2006.

    A retraction is in order. Not only have I come to realize this movie beats all the singer biopics, in my opinion, it beats all biopics and, indeed, has become my favorite movie…period. Read Jack Shaw’s comment below. It’s worth your time.(I did exactly what you asked and resisted a comment on a comment, but I gave in even though I tried).

    Oh, and by the way, if Dan John Miller wasn’t channeling Luther on the guitar, there is no such thing

    Great lines from the movie:June Carter…June Carter…when will you be mine? (sing it to the tune of Hey, Porter). June: I surmise you haven’t been to bed. An intoxicated Johnny: surmiiiiiise….Luther Perkins: It’s in A….A (nods ‘yes’ to Marshall Grant).

    June: I got tangled!woody pulps
