Description:
Initial versions include a bonus DVD featuring a 20 min documentary plus performances from the film.
In the 2005 Johnny Cash biopic, WALK THE LINE, the film`s creators took the risk of having the stars perform their own vocals, and it`s a gamble that paid off surprisingly well. Joaquin Phoenix`s take on the country icon is impressive; though he lacks the deft delivery of Cash on the opening "Get Rhythm," the actor does capture the spirit of the Man in Black without resorting to mimicry, particularly on "Cry Cry Cry," which faithfully replicates his vintage Sun Records sound. Although musician Shooter Jennings is clearly the most comfortable contributor to the soundtrack, singing "I`m a Long Way from Home" by his father, Waylon (whom he portrays in the movie), actress Reese Witherspoon steals the show with her vibrant performances as June Carter Cash, particularly on the twangy "Juke Box Blues" and "Jackson," Carter`s signature duet with her husband. While those who enjoyed WALK THE LINE should seek out the original recordings by Cash and Carter Cash, this collection makes an enjoyable and fitting companion piece to the film.

    good cd

    Manisha from California, Oct 22, 2007

    While I am not particularily a Cash fan, I really enjoyed the movie and the songs. The CD is great and both Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix are pretty good.

    bad

    BenW from Scottsdale,AZ., Apr 20, 2007

    • Entertainment Value:1 out of 5

    An embarrassingly bad soundtrack from one of the worst and most insulting biopics i`ve seen in recent years.

    Reiss and Joaquin nailed it

    glow41 from San Francisco, Mar 29, 2007

    • Suitability for all ages:4 out of 5
    • Entertainment Value:5 out of 5
    • Value:5 out of 5

    In this listener's opinion, the stars' rendition of the Caster-Cash songs rivals the original. What a talented pair. The movie was pretty good too.

    I have this movie and watched it over and over every night just to listen to the music. Reese and Jauquine did an awsome job of performing not only in the movie but also singing. Also my 4 year old son loves music and we had to get him a copy for himself!
