The Johnny Starr Story movie returns to Natchitoches, La for screening
The Johnny Starr Story has been named an official selection as TOP FIVE by The Cane River Film Festival. The festival is slated to run March 22-23 in Natchitoches, LA.
The Johnny Starr Story follows reporter, Jason Hawkins, as he investigates the death of a rock star, Johnny Starr, and a cold case murder of District Attorney, Jack Hawkins, as he discovers the price of getting too close to the truth.
The movie is returning to Natchitoches, LA, the oldest town west of the Mississippi River, for its first screening in the town where it all started in June, 2016. It took three and one half days of filming in 10 locations throughout the City to complete.
Inspired by actual events the film explores how corruption, greed, and a usurpation of power can effect generations of families in small town America for years to come.
The screening at the Cane River Film Festival marks the end of The Johnny Starr Story’s film festival circuit run.
The Director, Israel Varela, opines, “We have garnered strong support from festival film audiences, as well as notable awards.”
