June Carter Cash wrote Johnny Cash`s most famous song, "Ring of Fire," while she was falling in love with the fascinating and difficult musician who was the love of her life. Ring Of Fire will take us inside that volatile relationship, as seen through the eyes of their son, John, as well as profiling the woman who patiently supported one of country music`s biggest stars even as she found her own idiosyncratic path to stardom. A born performer, she was part of country music`s royal family, the Carter Family, whose music was heard all over America. Later, she and Cash performed together onstage together and lived the high life, maintaining their lifelong bond and a semblance of a home life for their son, through good times and bad, largely due to the strength and perseverance of June`s great love. Ring of Fire will take us beyond the portrayal of June as she was seen in Walk The Line, giving us more of her own colorful family history, her famous sense of humor, and her pioneering role as one of the first ladies of country music.
