Walk the Line



Director: James Mangold



Writers: Gill Dennis, James Mangold, Johnny Cash(book)



Stars: Joaquin Phoenix, Reese Witherspoon, Ginnifer Goodwin






Walk the Line is a movie based on the life of Musician Johnny Cash. The Movie takes you from Cash being a little kid and his brothers death all the way through his career. During his rise to fame, Cash became heavily addicted to drugs and struggled to keep his music career going.



I thought this was a good movie, it showed his life really good. It really showed his battle with drugs and how he changed throughout his life.

Catch Me If You Can (2002)

Catch Me If You Can (2002)




Director: Steven Spielberg






Writers: Jeff Nathanson, Frank Abagnale Jr.




Stars:Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks and Christopher Walken.






Genre: Biopic









Cathch me if you can is a story about a high schooler Frank Ablaganle Jr. during the 1960. He idolizes his father, who's in trouble with the IRS. When his parents separate, Frank runs away to Manhattan with $25 in his checking account. He's posed as a Pan Am pilot, a pediatrician, and an attorney. well the hole time he is cashing fake checks. Mean wile the FBI is tracking him down.


I believe that they did a good job in truning this true story into something entertaining and meaning full. It showes how some people can get away with crimes for so long and not get cought. One thing i took away from this movie is that no matter how slick you are, no matter how good you think you are in the end you will always get cought.
