That's the mythic album where you see his face, sweaty, looking dangerous, and he's there singing to murderers and robbers and sharing a good time with them. As a kid, how could you not be interested?

John was not just a singer, but a songwriter, ... He was always riding this river of shadows in his writing. He was singing about a kind of pain everyone lives through.

June and John are the last generation who can sing about these things first hand, ... The fact is, these people grew up in a field and they were singing about what they saw.

There was a point when they got into enough of a groove that when they played for the extras in Memphis we felt the love,

People don't remember how good the music was (back then)... There's some real blood and guts in that music.

There was something really adventurous going on at that moment with young people lashing out.

They were each an antidote for the other. John had a hole in his heart... and June was an antidote... John was a real ambassador for her to the edge or away from a safe place as part of the first family of country music. It's the most wonderful set of opposites you could ever encounter.

[For the movie to work,] he couldn't be an enigma, ... What's inside him? What makes him him? We pushed very hard to scratch deeper, and to fill in the gaps of the stories.

As we got to know John and June, what we needed them to understand was that the people they were now was not the people they were then, ... And there was the challenge of combining the grand wisdom and spirituality of these elder legends backwards into the young people they were, as they were learning those lessons. To tell how they got to be here, we had to go to those darker places, and not temper it.

John felt the material wasn't romantic,

[They had a beginning: the loss of Jack and his father's reproach. They had an end, with the love reconciled between June and John. But] the middle wasn't there, ... I was nibbling around the edges. The dynamism of their attraction, the struggle, was the middle of the story. The movie was dying here.

The two of them have a lot in common, and I don't mean life story, ... I mean a kind of core energy.

John always said whoever played him, 'make sure they hold the guitar like they own it, that they don't hold it like it's a baby,'

All you have to do is listen over and over and over again to any one of his songs. Even when they first started appearing in the early to middle '50s, the lyrics are incredibly dark. Everyone else is singing about getting girls and being happy, and he's singing about, 'I go out on a party and look for a little fun, but I find a darkened corner, because I still miss someone.' That's a dark lyric for a pop song.

There are so many things that came to a head in 1968, ... It was the greatest concert of his life and resulted in one of the greatest albums of the century. A month later he proposed to June [Carter]. In the six months previous, he gets himself off drugs, and in the process he finds himself.
