Since it is a biopic, it is destined to be a formulaic film, which is nothing more than a story about how the protagonist overcomes many difficulties and finally succeeds. It should be said that the title is good, it is the name of a song by Johnny Cash. This theme is also emphasized many times throughout the film: Johnny Cash has been walking the line all his life. The same is true for music, and the same is true for love. Love can destroy a person as much as it can save a person. Maybe someone who's talented in one way is always a little extreme or neurotic in other ways, that's why so many musicians do drugs and alcohol, the difference is that Johnny Cash has June Carter's love, so he can go forward and stay with his lover. Life on the road to music. Although life is not perfect, it is real. In any case, it is what I have experienced and what I insist on. On the road of life, you can choose to escape, retreat, or you can choose to persist and walk the line. That's what Johnny Cash taught me.
The two leading actors in this film, I think, have done a lot of work. The Oscar jury's "balanced" result was that Reese Witherspoon won Best Actress and Joaquin Phoenix fell short of Best Actor. No way, who said that last year's same type of "RAY" has already made Jamie Foxx king, and this year's best actor nominees are also aggressive, Phoenix has to be sacrificed . By contrast, this year's Best Actress battle has been less intense, and I honestly don't think Reese Witherspoon has much to offer, but the other nominees are lackluster , even if the eldest son is the eldest among the dwarfs, it can be imagined that Reese Witherspoon will have a bright future in the future. Relatively speaking, the Golden Globe Awards, which award dramas and musical comedies respectively, have not hesitated to award the three awards for best musical comedy, best actor and best actress to this film. It is commendable that the songs in this film are sung by the two leading actors themselves. At the end of the film, there is the original voice of Johnny Cash, and Phoenix's voice is not lost to him.
It is also a biopic. Although "Huo Yuanjia" wrote "purely fictional" at the end, it still caused such a big mess because it did not match the historical facts. This film is supposed to describe a lot of Johnny Cash's sloppy affairs. I haven't seen anyone claiming to be fictitious. I don't believe that there is no artistic exaggeration. Why haven't I heard of his descendants coming out to make trouble?
