In 1944, Johnny, then known as J.R., is raised on a cotton farm in Dyess, Arkansas with his brother Jack, father Ray, and mother Carrie. J.R. is known for his singing of hymns, while his brother Jack trains himself to become a pastor. While Jack is sawing wood for a neighbor with a table saw, J.R. goes fishing until he is spotted by his father for wandering off. Both J.R. and Ray return home to see Jack dying after being severely injured by the saw in an accident. In 1950, J.R. enlists in the Air Force as Johnny Cash, and is stationed in West Germany. He purchases a guitar, and in 1952, finds solace in writing songs, one of which he develops as `` Folsom Prison Blues ''. After his discharge, Cash returns to the United States and marries his girlfriend, Vivian Liberto. The couple moves to Memphis, Tennessee, where Cash works as a door - to - door salesman to support his growing family. He walks past a recording studio, which inspires him to organize a band to play gospel music. Cash 's band auditions for Sam Phillips, the owner of Sun Records. After they play `` Folsom Prison Blues '', the band receives a contract, and launch to stardom at the beginning of the rock and roll era. The band begins touring as Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two. On tour, Johnny meets June Carter, with whom he falls in love. Cash begins spending more time with June, who divorces her first husband, Carl Smith. After his attempt to woo June fails, Cash starts abusing drugs and alcohol. After his behavior reaches a bottom during a performance with June, they separate. Later, over Vivian 's objections, Johnny persuades June to come out of semi-retirement, and tour with him. The tour is a success, but backstage, Vivian becomes critical of June 's influence. After one performance in Las Vegas, Johnny and June sleep together. The next morning, she notices Johnny taking pills, and doubts her choices. At that evening 's concert, Johnny, upset by June 's apparent rejection, behaves erratically, and eventually passes out on stage. June disposes of Johnny 's drugs, and begins to write `` Ring of Fire '', describing her feelings for him and her pain at watching him descend into addiction. Returning to California, Cash travels to Mexico to purchase more drugs, and is arrested. Cash 's marriage to Vivian implodes ; the pair divorce and Cash moves to Nashville in 1966. Trying to reconcile with June, Johnny purchases a large house near a lake in Hendersonville. His parents and the extended Carter family arrive for Thanksgiving, at which time Ray dismisses his son 's achievements and behavior. After the meal, June 's mother encourages her daughter to help Cash. He goes into detox and wakes with June ; she says they have been given a second chance. Though not married, the two begin spending most of their time with each other. Cash discovers that most of his fan mail is from prisoners, who are impressed with his outlaw image. He proposes to Columbia Records that he will record an album live inside Folsom Prison. Despite Columbia 's doubts, Cash says that he will perform, and his label can use the tapes if they wish. At the Folsom Prison concert, Cash says that he has been sympathetic to prisoners, explaining that his arrest for drug possession helped him to relate to them. With this success, Cash embarks on a tour with June and his band. On the bus, he stops to talk with June and proposes to her, but she turns him down. At the next concert, June says she will only speak with him on stage. Cash later performs `` Ring of Fire '' on stage. After the song, Cash invites June to a duet and stops in the middle, saying he can not sing `` Jackson '' any more unless June agrees to marry him. June accepts and they share a passionate embrace on stage. Cast Joaquin Phoenix as Johnny Cash Reese Witherspoon as June Carter Ginnifer Goodwin as Vivian Liberto, Johnny 's first wife Robert Patrick as Ray Cash, Johnny 's father Hailey Anne Nelson as Rosanne Cash, Johnny 's oldest daughter Dallas Roberts as Sam Phillips, the founder, owner, and producer of Sun Records Dan John Miller as Luther Perkins, Johnny 's first guitarist Johnny Holiday as Carl Perkins Larry Bagby as Marshall Grant, Johnny 's bassist Shelby Lynne as Carrie Cash, Johnny 's mother Sandra Ellis Lafferty as Maybelle Addington Carter, June 's mother Tyler Hilton as Elvis Presley Waylon Payne as Jerry Lee Lewis Shooter Jennings as Waylon Jennings, Johnny 's future bandmate Clay Steakley as Fluke Holland, Johnny 's drummer Johnathan Rice as Roy Orbison Lucas Till as Jack Cash, Johnny 's brother Ridge Canipe as young Johnny Cash James Keach as Folsom Prison Warden Development and pre-production The film has its origins in a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman., That year, Cash was a guest star on the show, where he and June Carter became friends with Jane Seymour, the star of the show, and Seymour 's husband James Keach who was directing the episode. By the mid-1990s, Cash had asked Keach to make a film of his life ; he and Seymour began the process with a series of interviews. In 1997, the interviews had been the basis of a screenplay written by Gill Dennis, with input from Keach ; two years later, still lacking any studio interest, Keach contacted James Mangold, who had been `` angling to become involved in the project for two years. '' Mangold and his wife, producer Cathy Konrad, developed the script for Sony, and by 2001, they had a script they thought they could pitch to a studio. Sony and others turned it down, but Fox 2000 agreed to make the film. The film was in part based on two autobiographies, both of which were optioned : Man in Black ( 1975 ) and Cash : The Autobiography ( 1997 ), though the film `` burrows deep into painful territory that Mr. Cash barely explored. '' Phoenix met Cash months before hearing about the film. When he read the script, he felt there were at least ten other actors who would be better in the role. To prepare for her role as June Carter, Witherspoon watched several videos of the singer ; she also listened to her singing and telling stories to get her voice right. Release Box office Walk the Line was released on November 18, 2005, in 2,961 theaters, grossing $ 22.3 million on its opening weekend. It went on to earn $119.5 million in North America and $66.9 million in the rest of the world for a total of $186.4 million, well above its $28 million budget, making it a box office success. It was the all - time highest grossing music biopic until Straight Outta Compton surpassed it in 2015. Reception Critics generally responded with positive reviews, garnering an 82 % on Rotten Tomatoes. The two lead performances received rave reviews, particularly Witherspoon 's, whose performance is described by critics as her best work to date. Roger Ebert praised Witherspoon for her `` boundless energy '' and predicted her to win the Academy Award for Best Actress. In her review for the Los Angeles Times, Carina Chocano wrote, `` Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon do first - rate work -- they sing, they twang, they play new - to - them instruments, they crackle with wit and charisma, and they give off so much sexual heat it 's a wonder they do n't burst into flames ''. A.O. Scott, in his review for The New York Times, had problems with Phoenix 's performance : `` Even though his singing voice does n't match the original - how could it ? - he is most convincing in concert, when his shoulders tighten and he cocks his head to one side. Otherwise, he seems stuck in the kind of off - the - rack psychological straitjacket in which Hollywood likes to confine troubled geniuses ''. In his review for Time, Richard Corliss wrote, `` A lot of credit for Phoenix 's performance has to go to Mangold, who has always been good at finding the bleak melodrama in taciturn souls... If Mangold 's new movie has a problem, it 's that he and co-screenwriter Gill Dennis sometimes walk the lines of the inspirational biography too rigorously ''. Andrew Sarris, in his review for The New York Observer praised Witherspoon for her `` spine - tingling feistiness '', and wrote, `` This feat has belatedly placed it ( in my mind, at least ) among a mere handful of more - than - Oscar - worthy performances this year ''. Entertainment Weekly gave the film a `` B + '' rating and Owen Gleiberman wrote, `` while Witherspoon, a fine singer herself, makes Carter immensely likable, a fountain of warmth and cheer, given how sweetly she meshes with Phoenix her romantic reticence is n't really filled in ''. Baltimore Sun reviewer Michael Sragow wrote, `` What Phoenix and Witherspoon accomplish in this movie is transcendent. They act with every bone and inch of flesh and facial plane, and each tone and waver of their voice. They do their own singing with a startling mastery of country music 's narrative musicianship ''. In his review for Sight and Sound, Mark Kermode wrote, `` Standing ovations, too, for Witherspoon, who has perhaps the tougher task of lending depth and darkness to the role of June, whose frighteningly chipper stage act - a musical - comedy hybrid - constantly courts ( but never marries ) mockery ''. Some critics found the film too constrained by Hollywood plot formulas of love and loss, ignoring the last twenty years of Cash 's life and other more socio - politically controversial reasons he was considered `` the man in black ''. Rosanne Cash was quite critical of the film. She saw a rough edit and described the experience like `` having a root canal without anaesthetic ''. Her half - brother John Carter Cash was instrumental in having the filmmakers remove two scenes that were not flattering to her mother. Furthermore, she said, `` The movie was painful. The three of them ( in the film ) were not recognizable to me as my parents in any way. But the scenes were recognizable, and the storyline, so the whole thing was fraught with sadness because they all had just died, and I had this resistance to seeing the screen version of my childhood ''.
