* HappilyEverBefore: The film ends at Cash's performance of his Folsom Prison Album and marriage to June in 1968 at perhaps the height of his career commercially and only the beginning of his "superstar" period. He would go on to have a son with June (John Carter), play another prison album (San Quentin), and do more big shows like Madison Square Garden, but he would also relapse into addiction and suffer marital troubles. He'd eventually be dropped by Columbia Records and essentially be forgotten by his Mercury label, before a resurgence under producer Rick Rubin, but he'd be near the end of his life while enduring immense pain, stuck in a wheelchair and nearly blind. Almost enough material for a sequel.

''Walk the Line'' is a 2005 {{Biopic}} on the life of CountryMusic singer Music/JohnnyCash (Creator/JoaquinPhoenix), directed by Creator/JamesMangold. Based somewhat on Cash's real life, it follows him through his formative years as he loses his brother to a sawmill accident, and then joins the Air Force. Later on, he returns to the U.S. and tries to work as a salesman, but ends up signing to Sun Records because his heart is in the music business. Along the way, he marries and then divorces his first wife, Vivian, then meets and befriends June Carter (Creator/ReeseWitherspoon). After some drug-induced tumult, he eventually cleans up and performs his now-legendary concert at Folsom Prison. Johnny and June then perform a concert in Canada, where he interrupts a song to propose to her. She accepts. (No, this wasn't a Hollywood romance ending. That really did happen.)
The film was met with generally positive reviews, praising in particular Phoenix's and Witherspoon's roles, as well as the fact that both actors did all of their own singing and instrument playing. It grossed over $186 million worldwide and won Witherspoon several awards, most notably the Best Actress Oscar, and is often considered her best work to date. One noted critic of the movie was Rosanne Cash, Johnny's daughter from his first marriage, who said it was "painful"; Rosanne had a very good relationship with her stepmother June, and even spoke at her funeral. Mangold justified the somewhat unflattering portrayal of Roseanne's mother Vivian by saying that as a character, she was being seen from Johnny's perspective as he fell in love with June.
