Post; Walk the line


i went and saw it tonight with a couple of friends.
its a biopic based on the life of johnny cash, who i knew virtually nothing about
it was a pretty good movie, he was an incredible guy with an amazing talent. well worth a watch. the music may not appeal to all, but its a damn good story

7/10

seen it- I'm a big fan of Cash and his compatriots (Jennigns, Williams, etc) and I was pleased with the film overall.

I thought the movie portrayed him more egoistic then I expected. When you read his autobiography it doesn't really fit. But overall it was a good show, especially when you are fan who doesn't care one way or another and likes a film about one of the greatest country-singers.

But Henderson then there is still so much work to be done!! What about Folsom Prison, Bird on a wire, A boy named Sue and many many more. If you are interested, I have them all in a mp3 format on my hard disk... just let me know alright?

Ted... forget anything I may have said about your anti-gun European world- you're a Johnny Cash fan.

Damn straight I am one!! If you are around the house who learn to love Johnny, cause that is what my machine's playing! I read the biography and watched the DVD's... he's downright cool! Also the "new music" who covered with Rick Rubin is awesome.... especially "Hurt" gives me goose-bumps everytime I hear it.

As I said before... I am one of the most conservative lefties you'll find in this part of the globe!

damn skippy, man. Oh, Henderson, Cash was playing at the same time as those guys, and I love their sound too.

And people down in Florida can't be still when ol' Lynyrd Skynyrd's pickin down in Jacksonville. So let's gather round

I've got huge playlists on WMP of those artists you mentioned, play a little of all their stuff on the piano and guitar.

Ted, Hurt was covered by Johnny Cash. It was originally done by Nine Inch Nails. I only just found that out.
