Dove Review:
Sam Doonby is a drifter who comes to a small town and finds a job as a bartender at a local bar. In the short time he is there, he winds up becoming involved in many of the towns-folks lives. The impact he has is life changing in many ways as he saves many from harm or even potential fatal outcomes. However, little is known about this mystery man. When the police eventually become involved, they can find no record of his existence.
This film is a gripping mystery/drama that will have you wondering just who Sam Doonby is. Whenever he is asked, his answer is “I’m nobody really.” The film has a message and purpose that we won’t get into here so as not to plot spoil. However, we want you to be aware that the film does carry some rough situations and this is not a film for children. Adults will be moved by this compelling story and we are awarding “Doonby” our Dove “Faith-Friendly” Seal for ages 12 and over
