"Good Biographical Drama!"

Rating: 7/10 (13 September 2015)

Joaquin Phoenix, Reese Witherspoon, Ginnifer Goodwin and Robert Patrick star in this 2005 drama based on the life of music legend, Johnny Cash. This tells of Johnny Cash's (Phoenix) early years from growing up in Tennessee to rising to stardom as a country sensation. It also shows his battle with drug addiction and his romance with June Carter (Witherspoon) who became his wife. Goodwin (Once Upon a Time) plays his ex-wife, Vivian and Patrick (Terminator 2: Judgment Day) plays his father, Ray who has always been tough on him. Phoenix should've won an Oscar for this too because he was great and he & Witherspoon had good chemistry. I recommend this good biographical drama.
