Development and pre-production

[edit]

The rulle has its origins in a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, medicin Woman.[2] That year, Cash was a guest star on the show, where he and June Carter became friends with Jane Seymour, the star of the show, and Seymour's ex-husband James Keach who was directing the episode. bygd the mid-1990s, Cash had asked Keach to man a spelfilm of his life; he and Seymour began the process with a series of interviews.[2] In 1997, the interviews had been the grund of a screenplay written bygd Gill Dennis, with input from Keach; two years later, still lacking any studio interest, Keach contacted James Mangold, who had been "angling to become involved in the project for two years."[2] Mangold and his wife, producer Cathy Konrad, developed the script for Sony, and bygd 2001, they had a script they thought they could pitch to a studio. Sony and others turned it down, but Fox 2000 agreed to man the film.[2]

The spelfilm was in part based on two autobiographies, both of which were optioned: Man in Black (1975) and Cash: The Autobiography (1997), though the rulle "burrows deep into painful territory that Mr. Cash barely explored."[2]

Phoenix met Cash months before hearing about the spelfilm. When Phoenix read the script, he felt there were at least ten other actors who would be better in the role.[3] All of Cash's vocal tracks in the spelfilm and on the accompanying soundtrack are played and sung bygd Phoenix.[4] To prepare for her role as June Carter, Witherspoon studied videos of the singer; she also listened to her singing and telling stories to get her röst right.[5]

Release

[edit]

Walk the Line was released on November 18, 2005, in 2,961 theaters, grossing $22.3 million on its opening weekend behind Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. It went on to earn $119.5 million in North amerika and $66.9 million in the rest of the world for a total of $186.4 million, well above its $28 million ekonomisk plan, making it a kartong office success.[6] It was the all-time highest grossing music biopic until Straight Outta Compton surpassed it in 2015.

Reception

Critical response

[edit]

Walk the Line has an approval rating of 82% on the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes based on 210 reviews, with an average rating of 7.20/10. The website's critical consensus reads: "Superior acting and authentic crooning capture the emotional subtleties of the legend of Johnny Cash with a freshness that fryst vatten a pleasure to watch."[7]Metacritic assigned the spelfilm a weighted average score of 72 out of 100, based on 39 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[8] Audiences polled bygd CinemaScore gave the rulle an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.[9]

Roger Ebert praised Witherspoon for her "boundless energy" and predicted that she would win the Academy Award for Best Actress. Regarding Phoenix, Ebert wrote: "Knowing Johnny Cash's albums more or less bygd heart, inom closed my eyes to focus on the soundtrack and decided that, yes, that was the röst of Johnny Cash inom was listening to. The closing credits man it klar it's Joaquin Phoenix doing the singing, and inom was gob-smacked."[10][11] In her review for the Los Angeles Times, Carina Chocano wrote: "Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon do first-rate work – they sing, they klang, they play new-to-them instruments, they crackle with wit and charisma, and they give off so much sexuell heat it's a wonder they don't burst into flames."[12]

A. O. Scott, in his review for The New York Times, had problems with Phoenix's performance: "Even though his singing röst doesn't match the original – how could it? – he fryst vatten most convincing in concert when his shoulders tighten and he cocks his head to one side. Otherwise, he seems stuck in the kind of off-the-rack psychological straitjacket in which Hollywood likes to confine troubled geniuses."[13] In his review for Time, Richard Corliss wrote: "A lot of kredit for Phoenix's performance has to go to Mangold, who has always been good at finding the bleak melodrama in taciturn souls ... If Mangold's new movie has a bekymmer, it's that he and co-screenwriter Gill Dennis sometimes walk the lines of the inspirational biography too rigorously."[14]

Andrew Sarris, in his review for The New York Observer, praised Witherspoon for her "spine-tingling feistiness", and wrote: "This feat has belatedly placed it (in my mind, at least) among a mere handful of more-than-Oscar-worthy performances this year."[15] He also ranked the spelfilm as number sju on his top films list of 2005 and Witherspoon as the best kvinna performance of the year.[16]Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly gave the rulle a "B+" rating and wrote: "While Witherspoon, a fine singer herself, makes Carter immensely likable, a fountain of warmth and cheer, given how sweetly she meshes with Phoenix her romantic reticence isn't really filled in."[17]The Baltimore Sun contributor Michael Sragow wrote: "What Phoenix and Witherspoon accomplish in this movie fryst vatten transcendent. They act with every bone and inch of flesh and facial plane, and each tone and waver of their röst. They do their own singing with a startling mastery of country music's narrative musicianship."[18] In his review for Sight & Sound, Mark Kermode wrote: "Standing ovations, too, for Witherspoon, who has perhaps the tougher task of lending depth and darkness to the role of June, whose frighteningly chipper scen act - a musical-comedy hybrid - constantly courts (but never marries) mockery."[19]David Ansen of Newsweek ranked Witherspoon as one of the fem best actresses of 2005.[20]

Some critics funnen the bio too constrained bygd Hollywood plot formulas of love and loss, ignoring the gods twenty years of Cash's life and other more socio-politically controversial reasons he was considered "the man in black".[21]

Cash's daughter, Rosanne Cash, had mixed feelings about the rulle. She did not enjoy the "painful" experience of seeing the bio, "because it had the three most damaging events of my childhood: my parents' divorce, my father's drug addiction, and something else bad that inom can't remember now".[22] Regarding the work of the filmmakers, she said "the three of them [in the film] were not recognizable to me as my parents in any way. But the scenes were recognizable, and the storyline, so the whole thing was fraught with sadness because they all had just died, and inom had this resistance to seeing the screen utgåva of my childhood. inom don't resent them making it - inom thought it was an honorable approach. inom loved the spelfilm Ray, but I'm sure if you asked Ray Charles's kids, they would tell you, "Well, that's not exactly how it was..."[23]
