Title: Walk the Line.
Author: James Mangold.
Text Type: Film.
Date Finished: 1 July.

Walk the Line is a film based around Johnny Cash. The film was directed by James Mangold and it shows you all the troubles Johnny went trough in his life, not all of it was troubles tho, luckily.

Johnny Cash is actually horrible. He slept with a different woman to his wife while still being married to her, he then afterwards Said "it ain't wrong, June" like shut up, you idiot! (Not my choice of words, personally would have made it worse but I wanna pass) I can't understand why people would even consider cheating, no matter what, in my opinion once you've married someone and have children with them, you need to try your best and support them but noooo! Johnny is a big boy and he wants more for himself! More girls! Yay! Oh she's married too? Who cares! Honestly; this happens so much in our society and should just stop; cheating is horrible. 

I feel bad for both Vivian and June. Vivian got cheated on by her husband, who she was never even around because he had to chase his dream and not bring her along! But ohhh! He'd bring poor old June along, and then sweeten her up and make them both cheat. Like honestly what did Vivian do to deserve this, throughout the entire film she did her best to help Johnny in his career; she even moved somewhere with him where there was literally no shot of becoming a musician. She looked after the children by herself and was just a wreck, I cannot understand why people cheat Goddammit. That's why when she left Johnny I was Like "Yes, you've done yourself the biggest thing you could have! I'm so proud off you!" Like I actually felt happy for her.

  1. Some strong opinions, Jan! This clearly got you angry. I appreciate the way you see Vivian's side of the story. I agree with you; she was not treated well by Johnny. The film tries to make her out as the "bad guy", since Johnny is meant to be the hero.
