Johnny Cash was a genius and the story of his life is definitely worth telling. 'Walk the Line' does the job and then some. Joaquin Phoenix not only acts and looks like a young Johnny Cash, but mimics his singing voice so accurately, it’s hard to tell the difference.

It was an amazing movie. so sad, inspirational and moving.

It tells the life story of Johnny Cash (Joacquin Phoenix) as a musician, from his depressing childhood, to starting his career as a musician, to his downfall on drugs and his love June Carter (Reese Witherspoon).

I thought the acting was extrodinary by both Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon, allong with all the other supporting actors.

I found it amazing that all vocals of Johnny Cash were by Joaquin Phoenix, as were the vocals of comedian/singer June Carter by Reese Witherspoon.

Really should see it, and if you do get ready to be glued to the seat with amazment of how good this movie truly is till the end.
