Now this is a movie dat i can watch a thousand times and not get tired of it. The movie tells the true story about singer/songwriter Johnny Cash(played by Joaquin Phoenix). This movie is a true life story yeah, but it focuses mainly on Johnny's romance with fellow singer/songwriter June Carter(played by Reese Witherspoon). If u ask me... i'll tell ya this is one of the best love movie dat i'veseen haha.... right beside another love story The Notebook.


The movie starts off with Johnny reflecting his past back when he was still little. Being the lazy one of his siblings, his father, Ray Cash(played by Robert Patrick) didn't favour him dat much. Johnny then he was blamed for the death of his elder brother and dat made his father even furious.

SKIP abt 10 years from there, Johnny now became elder and lived his independent life outside his hometown. this part of the movie shows the beginnings of Johnny's singing career and how he was able to make it. 1 notable thing abt this movie is dat it is able to balance the movie showing Johnny's singing career & his love life.

I will remember this movie more for its romantic side. reli touching laa lol.... eventually Johnny became more popular n ends up having a gig on as part of a concert tour. he eventually meets June Carter becoz she happens to be in the tour also. In the movie u'll c other famous singers like Jerry Lee Lewis & Elvis Presley lol zomg....

Johnny Cash sings 'Folsom Prison Blues'

On the musical side.... Audio reli scores HIGH! the movie reli delivers when it comes to bringing back alive the old 60s - 70s music. In the movie u'll hear alot of Johnny Cash's hit songs like 'I Walk The Line' & 'The Ring Of Fire'. there r alot of duets also especially between Johnny & June. u'll hear a little bit of Elvis & other songs from the era... ahaha.... makes me feel like i've missed alot of the gud stuff in the past.

Johnny Cash & June Carter.

On the romantic side, the relationship between Johnny & June becomes very complicated as both of them are married & have kids. The romance had to end becoz there is oways the feeling of responsibility dat both of them had. SO.... this is y this movie is nice.... its the DRAMA! haha.... its the romance i guess dat makes the movie memorable.

'It's not wrong June....'

Like every famous singer, Johnny had problems wif his addictions - drugs. the film also made an emphasis on Johnny's problems & his attempt of redemption. haha.... reli terrible story.... dats y kids.... its not nice to take drugs.... haha.... his addiction was his downfall and everything else fell down with him.

June helps Cash with his problems.
Haih..... The romance between Johnny Cash & June Carter prooves that true love does exist...... they are the best couple of the planet LOL. i had doubts dat this is a true story haha..... but yet again, anything is possible..... If u like music & enjoys watching romantic films, this is a must watch.... i dunno wat else to say.... it's reli gud.... go watch it..... ; )
