IN CINEMAS NOW

Synopsis

Academy Award® and Golden Globe® nominee Joaquin Phoenix stars (and sings) as Johnny Cash and Golden Globe nominee Reese Witherspoon stars (and sings) as June Carter in this true story of an honest sound that became a revolution, a man who became an icon, and a love that saved him from destruction. Developed for seven years with the cooperation of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash, Writer/Director James Mangold focuses WALK THE LINE on the period in the mid-fifties when rock-and-roll exploded from a tiny studio in Memphis, Tennessee.  The film follows Cash’s meteoric rise to fame, culminating with his emergence as the “Man in Black” at his historic concert at Folsom Prison in 1968
