Wow, what an inspiring film.

That is all.

    I was just talking to my friend about this movie. We both love it. I was impressed and I really enjoyed the music throughout. I can't wait to watch it again...

    Man, I've just been listening to a best of Johnny Cash CD. I can't believe how long I dismissed this guy. He is a genius; I'll be purchasing more in the new year, I can tell. The Man in Black (is that what it's called?) and A Boy Named Sue completely blew me away, as did.. well everything else, especially the later recordings. So dark, melancholy, very humorous and lyrically important.

    :D I've always called him wookie. For years I'd see his name and not know how to pronounce it and then I was watching Zorro with Antonio Banderras and in the very beginning he's running around with his brother getting shot at and I swear he calls him wookie about 5 times. Then the brother gets shot and they pan to this shot of his grave and there it is Joaquin! It was a LIGHT BULB moment for me! :D My brother still cracks up about it because he was watching with me and I sat bolt upright in the chair and "That's it! Wookie!! Wookie Phoenix!!" :D
    NOPE!!!

    Think of any random noun, and chances are there's a Phoenix kid called that.:D Ulcer Phoenix, Webbing Phoenix, Builder Phoenix... they're all just waiting for their movie debuts.:p

    Ulcer Phoenix!!! hahahahaha! :D

    Wookie was AWESOME in Walk the Line though. He really should have won the oscar for it. I can't remember who beat him now but it was disappointing I think. He's a good actor. I like his work. Even if he does have a very unfortunate name. :)

    A buddy of mine who is really into Johnny cash said that the "American" albums are incredible. I'm not that knowledgeable about Cash other than basic stuff, but apparently he was recording much of them while dying.

    "American IV" has a cover of NIN's "Hurt."
    Do you remember Rock & Roll Radio?

    Yeah, it was a brilliant movie, with two talented leads. Plus, he was the excellent thing in Buffalo Soldiers too.


    But Ulcer's the more talented of the two.:p

    Actually Hurt was the first thing I heard him do, and that hooked me instantly. I listened to his older stuff a year ago and wasn't in the place to enjoy it then. Now? Wow, what a legend. I'm going to have to pick up the "American" set, definitely.
