today, i saw Walk The Line. it was tres inconvenient, because the only cinema that was still showing it was GSC Midvalley, and there was only one slot.

anyway, the movie was enjoyable. it was actually a pretty sombre movie. most movies we do watch these days don't begin with such a gruesome yet somehow touching death.

throughout my life some far, i have heard of people like Elvis, The Beatles and johnny cash, but besides the fact that elvis impersonators have become somewhat of a cliche, we don't usually get the chance to really KNOW these "legends". of course, i am alreally luckier that a lot of people i know, some haven't even heard of "Grease".

the love story between Johnny and June was very touching, the part where june's parents pointed a gun at the drug-dealer for turning up at johnny's house was amusing yet moving... but when u watch the movie, there is one question, How did Johnny fall in love with June is the first place?

Perhaps movies that choose to depict real life are almost always like that. In true fiction, there is always that defining moment, the part where the boy SUDDENLY SEES the girl for a first time and falls in love. But i guess real life isn't like that... johnny falling out of love with his 1st wife was a process, falling in love with June was another... whether or not these two processes overlapped was beside the point...

I am usually a tough supporter of the 1st wives club. I believe that no man has the right to one day wake up and declare that he has fallen out of love with his wife and demands a divorce.. or worse, suddenly deciding to run away into the sunset with a nice young thing... but perhaps there are exceptions...

According to the movie, June Carter died in May 2003, Johnny died 4 months later... perhaps there IS true love in this world...
