He's never been a fan of doing interviews on talk shows (which even Conan briefly mentions) and since the I'm Still Here film he's been deliberately messing with interviewers. But I personally don't mind how weird he is now, it makes the interviews unpredictable.

      Joaquin doesn't like doing interviews that much and only does them when he has a film to promote. That is why his awkwardness comes off as weird or strange to some people. He cares more about the craft of acting and doing good work than just being famous and the need to be seen all the time.

      He couldn't do Cash's voice in the film - not even his speaking voice! Listen to a Johnny Cash live album - St. Quentin is my favourite - and listen carefully when he says (as he always did) "Hello - my name's Johnny Cash". Then listen to Phoenix attempt that in the film - not even vaguely close. I can only assume that the people who were so impressed by Mr Phoenix in this film had no idea what Mr Cash sounded like, both singing & speaking. Such a waste....

    I’m so glad Joaquin finally got an Oscar [deservedly so] for The Joker & that Reese got one for this role, but I will never understand how he didn’t get one specifically for his amazing performance as Cash. Every time I see the film, I can’t stop thinking about how much he deserved it... I’m sure he was wondering what was there I did wrong to not get it after all the prep, depths he went to, etc to so accurately portray the good & bad in Johnny’s life. That’s why I can’t comprehend how he lost-there wasn’t anything wrong (except for some inaccuracies in the script, but that has nothing to do with him & obviously didn’t get in the way of Reese winning for playing June plus as a film student myself I can understand why they made some of those changes for cinematic reasons).
    I mean, Reese played June fantastically too but Joaquin’s portrayal of Johnny was just so on Mark & deep... not to mention all his own personal connections to the character that must have been a very hard emotional journey for himself as he played Johnny. He literally put his whole entire self into playing JR (& the Joker too of course which just highlights his talent & emotional sacrifices as an actor since we all know how tasking that character is to play psychologically especially from Heath Ledger, yet another deserving Oscar and that’s an understatement), but for all of that he so deserved winning that one.

      Hollywood seems to always get the awards wrong when it’s obvious who should win. It’s like that purposely select someone that shouldn’t or couldn’t win just to show they have the power over the awards not the big budget movies 99% of people watch and love.

And a good question is...y did Reece win? Was she a better June than the other guy playing Cash, no.

    I grew up listening to Johnny Cash on the radio and the LPs and 45s we had. When I watched this movie I was absolutely blown away by how uncannily close Joaquin's version of Cash was to the Man in Black himself, especially the singing and facial expressions when he sang. Same for Reece's acting as June. Have watched the movie several times and each time is as good as the first. This guy is one hell of an actor and unlike many of them at his level, humble as could be and hates talking about himself. Conan respected that by introducing the clip, that's a class act for a host.
