My wife bugged me to go with her to this movie. I always liked John Cash. although could not comprehend the idea of a movie about his life. On the other hand, I think Joaquin Phoenix is an excellent actor. So I talked myself into going just to see his performance.
We both thought it was a superb movie and have recommended it.
Joaqin made quite an impression while he stayed in Memphis during the filming of "Walk The Line". Very down to earth and seemed to blend in with everyone without seeking any attention.
I absolutely loved Walk the Line. I am disappointed that it missed out on Best Movie, but I hope the two actors receive the award. Joaquin and Reece did a great job and they both seems so sensible as well.
