Phoenix and Witherspoon were doing an amazing job, especially with the music, but several aspects of the script left me wanting more. We don&#8217;t really understand why any of the people do what they do, especially so for the negative influences, his father and his first wife. We get hardly a glimpse of why they act the way they do, and I didn&#8217;t really connect to Cash&#8217;s reactions to them, either. And the predictable story arc of success &#8211; gutter &#8211; redemption and it&#8217;s edifying connotations may have been unavoidable in a Cash biopic, but still disappointed me in its simplicity. The music made up for much of that, though, and the cinematography and design helped a lot, too.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/redirect?link_code=ur2&#038;tag=rezeptor-20&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;path=ASIN%2FB000E8QVWY%2Frezeptor-20%3F%255Fencoding%3DUTF8%26camp%3D1789%26link%255Fcode%3Dxm2\">Find this at Amazon.<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=rezeptor-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This should by rights have been an awesome movie, with awesome music and an intriguing story, and it didn&#8217;t quite fail at achieving it, but it didn&#8217;t quite make it, either.
