Record Company Executive: Your fans are gospel folk, Johnny. They're Christians, and they don't wanna hear you singing to a bunch of murderers and rapists, tryin' to cheer 'em up.

Johnny Cash: Then they ain't Christians.

What is a lowered (only the front) 1960's VW Beetle, with American bumpers and a "roof-rack", doing in a military airbase in Germany in 1952? [The scene was 1953 and the VW was a 1955, identical to the 1953 model. I know because I was the Picture Car Coordinator for the movie.]

When Johnny Cash is first on the street outside the Memphis recording studios the camera pans across an early 1950s Ford station wagon, the rear wheels are polished American Racing Torq Thrust II's, these came out about 5 years ago. [That car is a 1955 Ford Ranchwagon. When the owner showed up to the set, I noticed the wheels were wrong. I got double stick tape and put some old hubcaps on the car that would be appropriate, then left for my office to continue arranging for cars for the upcoming days. By the time they shot the scene, the tape had loosened and no one caught it. You can see the old hubcap leaning against the tire. I know because I was the Picture Car Coordinator for the movie.]

In the scene where John (Cash) is going up to June's house after he has been in a 'funk' for about a year or so, he says, "Hi Carlene" and then she runs in the house to tell her mother John is at the door. She is also referred to as "Carlene" throughout the movie. Carlene was born as Rebecca Carlene Carter and wasn't referred to as Carlene until her late 20's when her music career started. Until then it was always Rebecca. [This film is a dramatization of the life of Johnny Cash, not a documentary. This isn't even really artistic license, let alone a movie mistake.]
