Walk the Line

Go see this movie. Right now. Seriously.

I wasn't too sure I wanted to go see a long movie about "The Man in Black", but I walked out of there feeling the same way I did after seeing Million Dollar Baby (but a little more upbeat) thinking "Wow, I'm really glad I saw that." For those of you that don't remember, I had to be dragged kicking and screaming to see Million Dollar Baby cause I wanted to see some other mindless movie that I can't even remember now.

Joaquin Phoenix (yeah...I have no idea how to say his name) and Reese Witherspoon both sang the stuff themselves, and on the whole were incredibly believeable. The movie is a tad long, but I didn't look at my watch once-- Unlike when I saw Pearl Harbor and Charles tried to jump across all 7 of us to strangle Sam for lying to him about the 4 hour running time...

This is great Wikipedia entry about the history of the song "Hurt"
Johnny Cash covered the NIN song right before he died and it is one my favorites.
An interesting article about the many sides of Johnny Cash
