WALK THE LINE (M) Presented on 35mm

Walk the Line at Revival House Perth

Experience James Mangold's powerful 2005 biographical drama that chronicles the tumultuous life and career of country music legend Johnny Cash. From his troubled Arkansas childhood through his rise to stardom and his struggles with addiction, this deeply moving film captures the Man in Black's journey toward redemption and love.

Joaquin Phoenix delivers a career-defining performance as Cash, performing all his own vocals with raw authenticity that earned him an Academy Award nomination. Reese Witherspoon shines as June Carter, the spirited performer who becomes both Johnny's musical partner and the love that saves his life, winning the Oscar for Best Actress.

Mangold's direction doesn't shy away from the darker chapters of Cash's story - his pill addiction, failed first marriage, and self-destructive behavior - while celebrating the transformative power of music and genuine love. The film's concert sequences pulse with energy, recreating iconic performances at Folsom Prison and the Grand Ole Opry.

Based on Cash's own autobiographies, the film explores themes of faith, family, and finding your voice in a world that tries to silence you. The authentic period details and stunning cinematography transport audiences to the golden age of country music.
