Walk the Line provided a great ending to this year’s film season. It was based on Johnny Cash’s authobiography and starred Jaoquin Phoenix as Cash and Reese Witherspoon as June Carter. The film covered Cash’s life from childhood (with the tragic death of his brother and his fraught relationship with his
father that was never resolved) but the core was his descent into drug addiction and the way he managed to rebuild his life through his relationship with June. The music was fantastic – and particularly impressive since it was performed by the actors.
The Film Club committee met a week later to consider suggestions for next year’s programme. Look out for the results of their deliberations on the events part of the main Sir John Moore website.
