I thought Walk the Line was sort of lame. Grade A Hollywood. I thought Phoenix was much better in Gladiator.

LOL - yeah, the biography of singer Johnny Cash was way more "Hollywood" than a summertime action flick involving a man who's family is murdered and is lowered from his former stature and must fight his way up the chain in order to set things right again. Totally. :laugh:

i LOVED walk the line. But i think Hoffman had to adopt a much more different persona in capote, making the role that much more difficult. Another factor was that jamie foxx won for more or less the same role the year before

I actually HATED walk the line. It was tedious, repetitive, and the music wasn't all that enjoyable.

Probably my fault, I don't think I like Cash in general.

I loved the music in Walk the Line. I'd never heard any of Cash's live stuff, but now I'd like to get that album they recorded at the prison.

Who said anything about the quality of Gladiator? I was talking about Phoenix.
