Johnny Cash

Rating: 8/10 (6 October 2008)

This was a great movie. I really biographic movies like this movie and A Beautiful Mind and La vie en rose. I've never really known who Joaquin Phoenix was because when I saw Gladiator I didn't know what he looked like. I knew that he was nominated for an Oscar for this movie and that Reese Witherspoon won one for this movie so I decided to see it. Reese Witherspoon was amazing and she sang really well with this amazing voice. Joaquin Phoenix surely deserved to have won the Oscar. He completely immersed into the character and his singing was just as good.
Normally, I don't like country music but the soundtrack of this movie is great, probably only because when I listen to a certain song I think back to the movie. The way the movie was filmed and the story was just great. It made me want to learn more about Johnny Cash who I've never really care about before but after this movie I can't believe that he never got a number one billboard hit.
Great movie.
