...songwriters had been there before. Gaudio was writing blame songs long before he hooked up with the Seasons. "I cried for you, now cry for me ... You made a fool of me, so now I'm leavin' you." And Crewe's "Silhouettes," written with Frank Slay, Jr., is an early rock-'n-roll story song, in which the singer pines that he's seen his girl kiss another guy behind her drawn windowshade. His furious knocks on the building's door are answered by a stranger, who "said to my shock / 'You're on the wrong block.'" Finally he rushes...
After an empirical study I conducted over the weekend (i.e. talking with several male specimens at Harvard-Yale), I have uncovered several reasons why some men just won’t call. a) “I Don’t Want to Make a Fool of Myself” b) “I Don’t Want to Come Across As Over-Eager“ c) “I Think That She Doesn’t Like Me” d) “I’m Puking ‘Cause I Drank...

The one outstanding flaw of the film (other than Jena Malone’s hideous performance) are the stormy long shots...
...shine through the blustery tough-guy front he puts up for the public. This is a man who famously sang, “I shot a man in Reno/just to watch him die,” but, faced with June Carter’s wisecracks, turns into a blushing fool. Phoenix is superb at stepping fully into Cash’s shoes, whether stumbling incoherently through conversation at the depths of his amphetamine addiction, or rocking out on stage next to Jerry Lee Lewis (Waylon Payne). Cash’s home life may not have been perfect, but Phoenix takes...
