biggest feeling girl incredible june obviously shake
Oh, my God, y'all. Sometimes, I can't just shake the feeling that I'm just a little girl from Tennessee. I want to say my biggest inspiration for this movie obviously was June Carter. She was an incredible woman.
ask june people trying
People used to ask June how she was doing, and she would say I'm just trying to matter. I know what she means.
carter june matter means trying work
June Carter used to say, 'I'm just trying to matter'. And I know what she means. I'm just trying to matter and make work that means something.
carter country face heritage june music
June Carter had a long heritage of just being the spokesperson for country music and the face of country music.
play june religion
To play June, I had an immediate connect with her background and culture. We grew up with the same religion and shared a lot of the same values of family and spirituality. But I was really so inspired by what a modern woman she was.
june trying sound
I started working on trying to sound like June from the very beginning.
music june people
Even people that know Johnny Cash's music really well and know that he was married don't really know that much about June Carter. So finding out about her really helped to inform my performance and to bring her to the front in a way that she has never been before.
june singing carter
No one can sing like June Carter so I just tried to sing my very best.
beginning cats enjoyed equally fight fun loved relationship reminded spencer strong
I loved the beginning where we get to fight like cats and dogs. We had so much fun doing that! Well, I don't know if he enjoyed it as much as I did. I love having that antagonistic relationship in the beginning, and being equally as strong as each other and bullheaded. It kind of reminded me of a Spencer Tracy/Katharine Hepburn-type movie.
I never thought I'd be here my whole life.
finished skin
I never finished college, so I have no skills. I am here by the skin of my teeth.
culture decision far great natural playing pop time woods
I'm having a great time playing Becky, ... She's a world away from Elle Woods and for me it's a great departure. It was a natural decision for me to get as far away from American pop culture as I could.
good goodness matter means oh trying work
Oh my goodness, I never thought I'd ever be here in my whole life. I'm just trying to matter and live a good life, and doing work that means something.
goodness growing life
Oh, my goodness I never thought I'd be here in my whole life growing up in Tennessee.
