Почему после фильмов о кантри музыке всегда остается такое хорошее ощущение.
Сразу хочется поближе познакомится с этим жанром.
I definitely will. Я была скептически настроена насчет оскароносной роли Риз Уизерспун.
Но после просмотра, конечно должна сказать, что она здесь действительно молодец.
И по-моему ей темный цвет волос идет гораздо больше, чем светлый.
Я была поражена Хоакином, вообщем как всегда собственно. На этот раз он сыграл роль иконы кантри-музыки, близкой многим людям.
Тот факт, что Джонни Кэш сам лично одобрил выбор его на роль, как и Джун Картер одобрила Риз уже говорит о многом.
Всё вспоминала, кто в тот год получил премию за "Лучшую мужскую роль". Сеймур Хоффман за "Капоте",
с которым Хоакин встретиться позже на площадке фильма "Мастер". Спора нет конечно.
Первую жену Джонни кстати сыграла Дженифер Гудвин.
Она вообще интересная девушка, но ей необходимо что-то подтянуть в своей игре, не всё гладко.
После фильма, разумеется поискала фотографии Джонни Кэша и Джун. Всё таки они удивительная пара,
и их совместные фотографии являются отличным подтверждением той удивительной истории любви, показанной в фильме.
Johnny Cash approved Joaquin Phoenix to play him in the film because he liked his performance in the movie Гладиатор.
June Carter Cash also approved Reese Witherspoon for her role in the film.
читать дальшеReese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix were both so nervous about having to sing that it caused tension in their relationship off screen.
Both actors admitted in interviews that they didn't get along and constantly argued during the six months of singing lessons prior to filming.
It wasn't until filming started that they connected and became friends.
Due to the similarities between his life and Johnny Cash's, Joaquin Phoenix was hospitalized after filming.
It took 4 years for the producers to secure the rights to the story from James Keach, who is a friend of Johnny Cash and his family.
After Keach agreed, it took another 4 years to get the film made.
The scene in which Johnny Cash pulls the sink off the wall was not scripted; Joaquin Phoenix actually pulled it off the wall.
Joaquin Phoenix wears 56 different costumes.
All were designed by Arianne Phillips following meticulous research within the Cash family's archives and fans' private collections.
During one scene Johnny Cash is high and performing "I Got Stripes",
he walks right up to June Carter and glares at her for an uncomfortably long period of time on stage.
According to the director, James Mangold, this was unscripted and improvised by the actors.
Mangold said that he simply told Joaquin Phoenix to do what he would do in real life if he were angry at his girlfriend
and then had to perform on stage with her. Much to Phoenix's surprise, this backfired and Reese Witherspoon responded to his actions by simply rolling her eyes,
and continuing to perform the song. Phoenix later said that her reaction threw him off because his goal had been to make her as uncomfortable as possible on stage.
Cinematographer Phedon Papamichael shot the concert scenes mainly with hand-held Super 35 cameras as he didn't want to give a false sense of glamor to the performances.
Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon performed all of the songs themselves, without being dubbed.
They had vocal training for six months with music producer T-Bone Burnett.
They also learned to play their instruments (guitar and auto-harp, respectively) from scratch.
June Carter Cash died before production began. Reese Witherspoon's research included looking through Carter's closet for inspiration.
The film was screened for the inmates of Folsom Prison, 38 years after Johnny Cash's landmark performance.
In the same year (2005) Robert Patrick played Johnny Cash's dad in this film as well as Elvis Presley's dad in the movie Elvis.
The director said that Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon developed a very codependent relationship during filming.
According to him, after the filming wrapped, Phoenix admitted to him that he and Witherspoon had relied on each other so much that they made a secret pact.
The deal was that if one of them left or dropped out, the other would leave as well.
