Walk The Line

Walk The Line (2005)
Starring Joaquin Phoenix as Johnny Cash and Reese Witherspoon as June Carter Cash


The fact that I had watched this film before the Oscars did give a better impact or feel to my whole impression of the film. Somehow, I had a hunch that Reese would win Best Actress in the academy. Phoenix and Reese were definitely tremendous in this piece. I love that whole idea of how human struggle through their devotion and perseverance in the things that they love to do in life. Though at times, you may be drowned by your own obsession of fame and glory, while trying to cope with it at the same time, it still shines through in the face of hopeful genuine love between two people. The singing is of course, a plus point to the film. I admire June's sincere and down to earth philosophy towards life and her strength to stand tall as a woman of dignity in those trying times of her failing previous marriage. I guess no matter what time of age you are in, we as women will always need to be strong to face any challenges thrown to us, especially by society at large, as how society see and expect us to behave and conform to the preconceived notion of women in general
