Don't Come Knocking
Writer and actor Sam Shepard reunites with director Wim Wenders for the first time since their acclaimed 'Paris, Texas'. With a similar mood-drenched feel, this drama tells the story of has-been actor Howard (Shepard) who, on impulse, walks off the set of his latest film to visit his estranged mother (Eva Marie Saint). Back in his Montana hometown, he makes the startling discovery that he may have had a son, years before, with old flame, Jessica Lange. Visually majestic, an impressive cast also includes Tim Roth, Fairuza Balk and George Kennedy.
