I'm looking for my June Carter
5 April 2006
I am deeply touched by Johnny Cash’s life story. His real, deeply honest sense of life has been lingering in my head these past days; his pure love for his wife June is simply beautiful. Knowing of a few of his songs, I saw the Walk the Line for the first time this weekend. I am still in awe over the whole thing, as much the story as the movie itself. And to complete the epiphany, I’m humming his songs non-stop ever-since.
A good epilogue to the movie is certainly his last video Hurt. Watching it again now almost makes me want to cry. One of the best life and love story I’ve seen on screen.

J’adore ce film, j’adore Johnny Cash. C’est une magnifique histoire et en plus c’est vrai. Quand on dit qu’on est fait pour quelqu’un d’autre à quelque part…
Je seconde. Je me rappelle du video Hurt quand il était sorti, mais je ne connaissais pas l’histoire de Johnny Cash alors. Après avoir vu le film, et sachant que June est morte lors de la sortie du vidéo et quelques mois avant que Johnny disparaisse aussi, tout ça a pris un sens différent. L’amour est une grande amitié.
And Witherspoon as a brunette: whoa.
