I just got back from seeing I Walk the Line. A great, long movie (3 hrs) about Johnny Cash. Reese Witherspoon does her own sing as does the the male lead. I expect it will receive nominations for Academy Awards.

It is very good. Sound track is great. I remember when the Folsom Prison album came out. I was heavy into Psycedlic music and I loved it.

If you are an aging music icon and someone wants to do a movie about you, DON'T LET THEM! It's the kiss of death! See Ray Charles and Johnny Cash...

Heh. Excellent.

Well, I suppose they aren't strictly necessary for a good movie...

In both cases they were really aging--like dead.

I was considering it.

Is it worth spending 6 Dollars on?

But they weren't dead until someone came along and started making a movie about them, then BAM! a couple of months before release....

Yes. I would go again. I have always liked Johnny, plus the acting is very good, the sound track is excellent and the storyline is compelling.

Heh, that's a "default to true" statement for quite a few threads...seriously, the movie looks OK, I think I'll see it tomorrow.

Yes, there is a small explosion right after he take a handful of uppers. Ah, the director was trying to tell us something.
