Walk The Line
The movie Walk The Line is based on the famous singer Johnny Cash’s real life. Johnny Cash grew up in the Great Depression era. He had a rough childhood, especially when he lost his older brother at a young age. When Johnny was old enough he moved out of his house, away from his family, and joined the Air Force, he was stationed in Germany. Johnny found his love of music there, and bought his first guitar.

To me art is a beautiful way to show what has happened. It shows how things have happened or how they could. Art is amazing it tells stories to us so we know what has happened or what might happen. Art might be trying to show you a sign about a difficult decision you're having trouble making. The movie Walk The Line is a work of art. It tells the story of Johnny Cash, and all the hardships he went through. It tells about how the Great Depression affected all Americans. This movie showed how ugly drug use can be to people and shows that it’s not a good choice to use them. I see this movie as art because it is trying to teach people something in a creative way. It tells the beautiful story of how Johnny and June fell in love with one another. It shows the terrors that drugs can bring into your life if you let them. This one movie, this one work of art tells many stories. Some are beautiful and some are scary, but they all teach us something that we need to know. This movie has art inside of itself. It shows how music has revolutionized the world, and how it affects people’s emotions. This movie is amazing in many different ways. It tells stories, shows emotions, and brings art into a whole different perspective. This movie is art because it makes the viewer’s emotions show. It makes everyone feel differently, from happy to sad and maybe even a little angry. This is my all-time favorite movie because of all the artwork and emotions it brings to me. This is why I consider this movie to be art

    "Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we don't start measuring her limbs." (Pablo Picasso, 1870) When one looks at a piece that they believe to be art, they stare, they admire, they criticize and then they move on to the next piece. Not everyone will say that the same thing is art, just like not all people believe rap is actual music. Art is what you make of it; it's what's inside ones soul. Himillsy, in The Cheese Monkeys by Chip Kidd, followed her own soul in everything including art, and taking anyone she felt worthy enough along for the ride. Himillsy Dodd takes art because she can. She drops the classes the teacher is ‘too hard' or…

    What is art? Although it is a drawn out cliché, the issue must be addressed. The best definition I could come up with is the combination of two definitions. Zaidel believes art attracts attention and elicits an aesthetic-related response.2 This definition is over-inclusive; if anything that attracts attention is art then is a traffic cone art? According to Haselberger, works of art are objects produced with the intention that they be aesthetically pleasing and not merely pragmatically functional.3 This definition is under inclusive, limiting art to solely be “pleasing”. Art attracts attention and elicits an aesthetic-related response but it is beyond functionality. This definition also helps to differentiate between art and tools, which are two similar but not equal things. Art is more about aesthetics while tools are more about functionality.…
