Adhere to the ideal and keep moving forward

The film tells the story of the life of legendary American country singer Johnny Cash.

He doesn't seem to be favored by his father. His father prefers his brother who works hard. It was just in another accident that his brother was killed by a chainsaw. His father blamed everything on him running away without accompanying his brother. Go fishing. And my father never seemed to understand his love and pursuit of music.

He grew up listening to 10-year-old Jon Carter sing when he was very young, and he fell in love with her at that time. Unfortunately, before they met, they were both married to others. From the point of view of marriage, Johnny's marriage is not happy, at least I don't like this woman very much, too much is asking, regardless of Johnny's pressure and hard work, as his career gradually develops, her return is also Often noisy and complaining, it's hard to believe that Johnny has kept the family intact, and his heartbreak the moment his wife left the house with the kids is palpable, and his love for Joan may not be enough. Erased, but family responsibilities also kept him in bondage, until at that moment he broke down completely and fell into a long period of decadence.

When he first got the chance to audition for his dream, the manager's words shocked me: "You know what I mean, we've heard this song no less than a hundred times, the same version, just like You sing exactly the same." "Sing..feelings? Well, let's 'fight the feelings'. If you're hit by a truck and you're dying, and you only have time to sing a song, one to remember you.. Let God understand.. how you feel all your life.. a song that sums up your life, can you sing this? The song that Davis sings on the radio all day? How can't you say it out loud when it's 'peace of mind' ', or do you want to sing something else? Something real? Something that you really feel? I'll tell you right now, that's the song that people want to hear, that's the song that really saves hearts. It's not about believing in God or not. , Mr. Cash, the important thing is whether you believe in yourself."

Maybe he was thinking about being able to be with Joan all the time, but he always guarded his family. Unfortunately, he was tricked into the drug boat at a certain moment, which hurt him a lot later. He made a lot of money, bought a big house, his father, mother, wife and the whole family moved in together, but he was still lonely from the bottom of his heart, I think.

He has always enjoyed singing with Joan. Compared to the wife at home who can't understand him and doesn't seem to try hard to understand him, Joan takes care of him meticulously. I really hope they can get together smoothly. , instead of maintaining his plausible marriage.

Finally, at a concert, he fainted on the stage, the drug scandal was exposed, the tour was cancelled, and Joan left because of this. When he returned home, he was indeed greeted with cold words from his wife. Cash lost his support mentally, and quarreled with his wife because he wanted to hang pictures of Joan. The wife left with the child, which brought him a great blow. And he seems to have begun to treat himself with self-sabotage. His love and longing for Joan could actually allow him to walk alone, such a long journey, just to catch a glimpse of Joan.

He restarts his life at a country house and invites his parents and Joan to be guests, but his father still treats him with disdain and resentment, and the party ends up unhappy. I don't think any man can accept the feeling of not being able to get his father's approval. Fortunately, Joan finally decided to stay with him at such a moment, "your heart has already been given to him". Detoxification is not an easy task. Seeing that Joan and her parents are so caring and kind to him, even the stone must be touched. Cash also feels "You are an angel. You have been here with me. I did something wrong. So many things. My dad was right about me being sawed to death. Jack was awesome, he could do so many good things, but what did I do? Hurt everyone who knew me, I know I hurt you, I am useless.". Joan still encouraged him, helped him cheer up, gave him confidence, and he finally found himself in high spirits, with the new single "In Folsom Prison" reaching number one and becoming the best-selling single.

At a concert, he couldn't wait any longer, and he couldn't even sing a song. He had to accept Joan's proposal. This time, Joan finally accepted his proposal, and they lived happily ever after in the Hendersonville lakeside residence. When Joan passed away in 2003, he dedicated his posthumous work "The Man Who Comes Again" to his wife. In the following four months of mourning, he woke up listening to this song countless times every day. Following him, he couldn't wait to meet his lover in heaven.

What do people say, seeing such a man who insists on his ideals and fulfills his responsibilities, grew up under the contempt and prejudice of his father, and became a legendary singer with his own efforts, and can still live with his beloved. . It is true that we have been able to support each other and grow old together. Such love and emotion are so enviable and admirable. I don’t know what year and month we will be able to find our own Joan Carter. The ideal never stops.

The actor was also nominated for the Best Actor Oscar in 2006 because of this film, and he did a good job.
