-
Doonby is an upcoming film written and directed by Peter Mackenzie and produced by Michael Mackenzie, Mark Joseph and Tommy Warren. It stars John Schneider, Jenn Gotzon, Ernie Hudson, Jennifer O'Neill, Will Wallace, Robert Davi, and Joe Estevez. John plays Sam Doonby, a mysterious, yet talented drifter who gets off a bus one afternoon in a small Texas town to change and improve the lives of all he comes in contact with. It is a story of greed and envy, played out against the backdrop of the classic country and blues music that is performed in Leroy’s Bar.[1] Doonby is a film that has been described by the producers as Crazy Heart-meets-It's A Wonderful Life, but John calls it It's A Wonderful Life without the Wonderful.[2]
The film was shot on location in Smithville, Texas, and previewed during the 64th annual 2011 Cannes Film Festival. It is slated for release in the fall of 2011.[3][4]
