“Hello, I’m
Johnny Cash” The and man in black would say, in a voice of quiet
intensity --- and the audience would go wild. The Arkansas native worked

Opry. He was never an easy package to sell. He was always a brand new
thing. The film is being produced by James Keach, husband of actress Jane
Seymour, who is a very close to the Cash’s. Keach describes the
storyline as “every man who has descended into hell and who has found
