Walk the Line power-walked into the top spot on both the DVD sales and rental charts the week ending March 5, easily beating a slate of high-profile competitors, says The Hollywood Reporter.

On VideoScan's First Alert, the Oscar-lauded Johnny Cash biopic, released on DVD by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, outsold second-ranked The Lady and the Tramp, from Buena Vista, by a nearly two-to-one margin, while third-ranked Pride and Prejudice, from Universal Studios, sold about 20% as many copies as Walk the Line its first week in stores.

The film also was a big hit in rental stores. Walk the Line generated an estimated $9.2 million in rental revenue its first week out, according to Home Media Retailing's video rental chart.

Walk the Line was released November 18th, 2005 and stars Joaquin Phoenix, Reese Witherspoon, Ginnifer Goodwin, Robert Patrick, Dallas Roberts, Dan John Miller, Larry Bagby, Shelby Lynne. The film is directed by James Mangold.
