The man in black

Rating: 7/10 (6 April 2012)

WALK THE LINE is a biographic movie about the country music legend Johnny Cash. It begins in Cash's youth and it goes until the moment he marries with June Carter. It describes some crucial moments in the artist's life and, as far as I learned, the film is quite accurate about them (about what really happened in Johnny Cash's life). I enjoyed it as I also enjoy Cash's music.
The performances of Joaquin Phoenix (which plays Johnny Cash) and Reese Witherspoon (plays June Carter) are quite good and convincing, especially if we take in consideration that is not easy, for any actor, to play a role of a real character (someone that actually exists in real life)! I think that both of them did a good job as actors and also as singers! They both sing very well too! In fact I must I say I enjoy their versions of Cash's songs as much as the original ones!
