Joaquin the Line

Joaquin Phoenix is torn between two lovers in what he professes will be his last film. As he talks passionately about his new pursuits, it seems he’s not torn between artistic muses. Movies are out, and music is in, Phoenix insists.
Now sporting a long, scraggly beard and scruffy hair, Phoenix has drawn online wisecracks about a look far removed from singer Cash’s clean-cut stage appearance. The actor said it was not so much about copping a new image as distancing himself musically from Cash.
“I don’t know that this is my look,” Phoenix said. “I mean, I just have a beard.”

Cash’s Folsom Prison Concert Prints Go On Sale

Johnny Cash made Folsom Prison famous in 1968 with a song that proclaims, “I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.”
The prison museum recently obtained photos from his legendary concert at the prison, where he performed in front of 2,000 inmates. The recording is part of Cash’s live “At Folsom Prison” album. Copies of the photos taken at the show are now on sale at the museum.
“It is the first time in 40 years these pictures have been available to the public,” the museum curator said.
The old photos surfaced last year from a newspaper reporter who covered the concert that day.
Although he had some problems with drug abuse during his career, Cash never spent time as an inmate in Folsom Prison.
The prison museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The prints of the photos cost $10 each.
