Quite possibly the best picture of 2005.

Rating: 10/10 (12 December 2005)

Last year, us moviegoers were given a biopic about one famous music legend by the name of Ray Charles. Jamie Foxx did commendable work as Mr. Charles. A year later, Hollywood did it again, this time with country legend Johnny Cash. Were they able to pull it off? Absolutely.
Joaquin Phoenix is at his pivotal acting peak as Johnny Cash. People have said it too many times, but I need to remind everyone reading this that his performance deserves the Best Actor Oscar.
The film takes us from Johnny's childhood, filled with horror, to some of his finest live performances, and through his difficulty abstaining from his drug addiction along the way.
Along with Reese Witherspoon's stirring portrayal of a sometimes confused and outreaching June Carter, "Walk the Line" is just what movie goers are looking for. If you haven't seen it yet, see it now.
