Primarily the story of the love that grew between country stars Johnny Cash and June Carter during the early years of Cash's career, Walk the Line is the result of intense collaboration between director James Mangold, co-writer Gill Dennis, Johnny Cash, and June Carter Cash.
Though both Cashes died in 2003, they oversaw the script's development for seven years. Mangold and Cash's insistence that the film's stars would actually sing paid off. Witherspoon's singing (as June) is lovely, and Phoenix's contains the raw energy and soul that defined Cash's sound.
Even as a child on a cotton farm in Depression-era Arkansas, Cash shows a strong interest in music, escaping from his no-frills life and strict father (Robert Patrick) through hymns and listening to the radio. When his brother dies in a freak accident, young Johnny feels responsible, and worries that he will never live up to his brother's goodness.
The film follows Cash through his first marriage with Vivian Cash (Ginnifer Goodwin) and into the early stages of his touring career alongside such musicians as Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, Elvis Presley, and most importantly, June Carter. As Cash's success grows, so does his relationship with drugs, alcohol, and Carter, putting a strain upon his family life. From his initial audition with Sam Phillips of Sun Records on through his legendary 1968 concert at Folsom Prison, Cash is transformed from a hesitant singer riddled with demons to a man whose uniquely bold style would make music history.
Walk the Line never attempts to paint a full picture of Cash's prolific career, but instead focuses on the passions that drove his music and on the woman who gave him strength. With magical performances by Witherspoon and Phoenix, a haunting and inspiring American romance is brought beautifully to life.

Drama following the life of the legendary 'Man in Black', Johnny
Cash. The movie begins in 1955, when a tough, skinny guitar-slinger
who called himself J.R. Cash (Joaquin Phoenix) walks into the
soon-to-be-famous Sun Studios in Memphis. It was a moment that
would have an indelible effect on American culture. With his
driving freight-train chords, steel-eyed intensity and a voice as
deep and black as night, Cash sang blistering songs of heartache
and survival that were gutsy, full of real life and unlike anything
heard before. That day kicked off the electrifying early career of
Johnny Cash. As he pioneered a fiercely original sound that blazed
a trail for rock, country, punk, folk and rap stars to come, Cash
began a rough-and-tumble journey of personal transformation. In the
most volatile period of his life, he evolved from a
self-destructive pop star into the iconic 'Man in Black' - facing
down his demons, fighting for the love that would save him time and
again, and learning how to walk the razor-thin line between
destruction and redemption. Reese Witherspoon won a Best Actress
Academy Award for her role as June Carter, Cash's long-suffering
wife.
