Walk the Line with Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon playing Johnny Cash and June Carter

Johnny Cash is a legend.

His tunes will be listened to for decades to come. Even in Johnny’s simplicity, his songs are some of the best out there.

Last night I watched the movie “Walk the Line”. Joaquin Phoenix plays the part of Johnny Cash and Reese Witherspoon plays the part of June Carter. Each does a phenomenal job.

The beauty of the movie was that both sang their own lyrics. This was a risky move if you ask me. To try and replicate Johnny does not seem like a small task. However Joaquin pulled it off like a champ. I was really suprised.

If your a Johnny Cash fan you might be suprised by this movie. I heard lot’s of backlash and trash talking from hard core Cash fans when they heard about the movie. The producers and actors really seemed to do justice on this one.

It’s a great flick….You should definitely watch it if your a music fan.

After watching the movie I scoured the internet looking for the duet “Times A Wastin” but couldn’t find it anywhere. It’s not on the soundtrack, but it’s a great song. Apparantly June Carter sang it with her husband a long time ago and the only recording is not being released by her ex. I’m not sure of the validity of that though.

But I wanted the phoenix/witherspoon version. They rocked that song.

Well after searching the net for a bit, I found a dude who created a remix from the movie and sent me a mp3. It’s not the entire version but it still does the trick.

If you would like a copy, leave me a message.

  23. I have been looking for this mp3 for a very long time so finding you was somewhat a dream come true. This particular song (the original version) has become the ‘theme song’ for me and my boyfriend but despite the love for June and Johnny the Joaquin and Reese version has a lot more flair I think so yeh I would love if you could send me

  24. I loved the movie, wish i could have the video where they sing Time’s A-Wasting just the way
    it was in the movie … if anybody can tell me where i can find that …

  25. Hello~
    Like everyone else, I would LOVE a copy of Time’s A Wastin!
    I have also looked everywhere and would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
