Really funny and clever "Walk the Line" spoof

Rating: 9/10 (3 July 2020)

I really enjoy the "Walk the Line" movie and I'm a big fan of Johnny Cash. I didn't expect this movie to be such a straight spoof of the major hallmarks of Cash's life, at least as it's thought of in popular memory, but I think the movie did a great job of being a parody but also being genuine and intelligent, even astute. It comments on tragedy, and accident, and temptation and blame, most of it rooted in Cash's life. But somehow it makes the crux of those somewhat, erm, silly and part of human nature desiring easy solutions while ignoring risk. All while being hilarious.
Highly recommend.
