Directed by Danny Garcia ("The Rise and Fall of The Clash"), "Looking For Johnny" is promised to be the definitive documentary on New York City's legendary guitar player Johnny Thunders.
In 90 minutes, this film covers Johnny Thunders' sometimes dazzling but sadly doomed career. Fom his beginning in the New York Dolls in the early '70s to his demise in New Orleans, where he died under mysterious circumstances in 1991, "Looking For Johnny" promises to be a fascinating ride.
