Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Thom Zimny is Elvis Presley's go-to documentarian; Cash's estate specifically sought him out for this authorized but unvarnished portrait.
The film deliberately excludes Walk the Line footage to sever Cash from Hollywood's version of him — a choice that alienated some casual fans but thrilled purists.
