They do their own singing with a startling mastery of country music's narrative musicianship.". They act with every bone and inch of flesh and facial plane, and each tone and waver of their voice. For example, Baltimore Sun reviewer Michael Sragow[1] wrote, "What Phoenix and Witherspoon accomplish in this movie is transcendent. Critics generally responded with positive reviews, garnering an 83% on Rotten Tomatoes. Phoenix and Witherspoon performed their own vocals in the film's numerous stage appearances. June, despite her shock, says yes. Cash responds that he can only continue singing the song with her if they will get married and so proposes to her onstage. In the middle of the song, Cash stops singing and June looks concerned. At the concert, June tells Cash that he can only talk to her onstage. En route to one performance (at 2AM), he proposes to June, who turns him down. His record company is dubious, arguing that the musical world has changed in the time Cash was rehabilitating, however he says bluntly that he will perform on a given date and the label can use the tapes if they think the music is any good. Cash's response is to try furiously to remove a stump from the ground with his tractor, an attempt which ends with the tractor reversing into the lake and Cash being rescued by June (who was told by her father "You're already down there", in response to her protests that she was not going to help him out). His parents, and the extended Carter family (June, her daughters and her parents) arrive for Thanksgiving, at which time Cash Snr berates Cash over his lack of achievement. On the way back, he collapses in the rain and - on coming round the next day - sees a large house near a lake and promptly buys it. The pair separate and Cash moves to Nashville, where he shares living quarters with Waylon Jennings. Later again, the tensions in Cash's marriage flare up as he attempts to put up "pictures of my band" (including a very large one of June) over his wife's objections. It is at this point that a distraught June begins to write "Ring of Fire". As a result, the rest of the tour is cancelled and June gets rid of Cash's drugs. That night's concert sees Cash incoherent during his customary "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash" opening, as well as forgetting the lyrics to a song, losing control of the microphone stand, kicking the footlights and ultimately passing out. The next morning, as June is on the phone to one of her daughters, she notices Cash taking several pills. After one performance, Cash and June sleep together in her hotel room. Despite his wife's objections to the level of interest he is paying her, Cash persuades June to come out of semi-retirement and tour with him. Despite her objections, Cash decides on a love song and kisses her in the middle of the performance, after which she storms off the stage and they go their separate ways - despite Cash's protest that "it was only a song". June tells him (and many of the other artists on the tour) at one point that they cannot "walk the line", prompting Cash to write "I Walk The Line". On this tour (along with Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley), he meets June Carter, who is both a singer (although she claims to have no talent) and a comedienne in the performances. Despite his bandmates not knowing the tune, he strikes up "Folsom Prison Blues" and is rewarded with a contract, which soon has him touring with the other Sun artists. One day, he walks past a recording studio and is inspired to put a band together (which his wife describes as being made up of "two mechanics who can't even play") to play gospel music. Following his discharge, he marries his girlfriend Vivian. He appears not to enjoy his time there, but finds solace in playing a guitar he bought and writing songs - one of which becomes "Folsom Prison Blues". joins the Air Force and is posted to Germany. J.R.'s relationship with his father was strained since he was young, yet was made much more severe with the death of Jack. quickly learns, Jack has been fatally wounded by the saw. As he is walking back home, he is intercepted by his father, flush with blood stains on his overalls, asking "Where have you been?" As J.R. With Jack's permission, he leaves to go fishing. A few scenes later, Jack is sawing wood as a job for a neighbor when Johnny declares it to be boring, and would rather be somewhere else. J.R., who can sing well like his mother, is very adept with the hymns they sing at church. Jack, who is training to become a pastor, and therefore "needs to know the Bible front to back", is much better at dealing with the wording and stories of the Bible. Early in the movie, Cash and Jack discuss their different strengths and weaknesses in regard to the Bible and hymns. The next scene depicts Cash as a boy (then called "J.R.") and his brother Jack listening to the radio, and hearing a 10-year-old June Carter singing, providing a foreshadow into J.R.'s obsession with her in the future. After repeated calling, we are made aware that the hand belongs to Cash, and it is later revealed that the voice belongs to the prison's warden, calling for him to go on stage.
