Accuracy is one thing, whether the picture comes
across as aesthetically satisfying is enjoyable, or if
the actors and 
actresses are actually trying to recreate the person
in

forward to Elijah Wood as Iggy Pop either (although I
could picture him playing Marc Bolan....)

I normally like Phoenix, but he wasn;t believable as
Cash for a second, whereas Jamie Foxx in "Ray" was
completely believable. 

Witherspoon was OK, but the best performance in "Walk
The Line" was Waylon Payne as Jerry Lee Lewis.
