Walk the Line

Saw the Johnny Cash biopic last night -- well worth the price (free, thanks to David or Papa's?) movie passes. Would've been worth the $7.50, too. Joaquin Phoenix really gets into the character, and Reese Witherspoon was also great as June Carter. The time frame of the movie is a pretty brutal time in Cash's life -- a time when he was drinking, pill-popping and cheating on his first wife. A scene I really liked came toward the end; in helping Cash get his life back together, June Carter takes a reluctant Johnny back to church for the first time in a long time. Not a country fan, but there's something about Johnny Cash's music that breaks down that boundary for me.
