Vivian et Johnny, La Légende de Nashville

I absolutely loved this movie. Vivian was one strong woman, and I enjoyed her truth. At the end of the day through all of the pain, she was a mother and grandmother. And despite her self doubt, she was so beautiful and loved.

Wow, I'm in tears. It was a beautiful, heart wrenching love story. I'm not crying. 😭 I highly recommend.

Hollywood could never write a love story as pure and loving as Ms. Vivian's. This documentary brought Vivian out of the shadows that Hollywood cruelly casted on her for decades. The life Vivian endured for 13 years as Mrs. Cash was far from a glamorous one. Vivian was a woman of courage and strength. She endured so much without any support from those in the music industry. She had to figure many things out on her own and yet she was the wife of the biggest new country star, though she felt so lonely. She had no voice, no outlet and spent most of her time isolated with her four little girls. This documentary broke my heart because I could feel her pain. Though in the beginning everything was like a fairly tale and life seemed good, even though they didn't have much, they knew they had each other. As time went on and the "rags to riches" became a reality, Vivian's life sadly turned for the worst. Ms. Vivian's persona was perceived as loving, far from selfish, classy and very reserved. She truly walked the line for the one she always loved, but sadly she was left with only empty promises. Thank you to the Cash daughters for bringing their mother's story to light and for allowing Ms. Vivian to finally shine!!!

Enjoyed the film; fascinating how history can be rewritten by the "victors," even if those victors are screenwriters, directors or producers with a point of view.

Great home movies and photos.

Loved the differing memories of Viv and Johnny's daughters--"Really? I don't remember it that way," one quietly murmurs at her sister's words. The film builds power through the daughters' loving testimonies, the weight of family photos, and interspersed film clips showing life in the '50s, '60s through the '90s and aughts.

Right now, I want to complain about IMDb, one of my sacred websites...How can they list the first two stars of MY DARLING VIV as Joaquin and Reese?! Why aren't Vivian and Johnny Cash first and foremost?

For shame!!!

I enjoyed and appreciated the love and personal perspectives in this well made documentary. The sharing by all four daughters made this powerful story even more so. The never before seen photos and home movies put me in the intimate story. Being a Cash family appreciator was enhanced by knowing much more about Vivian and her powerful story. The love put into this film comes forward in an honest way; thank you.
