Filmmaking at its best.
With an all star cast plus excellent writing and directing
that makes Jacknife even better.
The film adaptation was co-produced by both companies:
Sandollar and Cannell Entertainment in which they give themselves
an on-screen credit as one of the executive producers in this
powerful dramatic film for Lionsgate and ITV Studios.
From 3/18/1981-present, Dolly Parton, Sandy Duncan, Don Correia,
Gail Berman, Bill Masters, Sandy Gallin, Carol Baum and of course,
Stephen J. Cannell got their names on all projects, starting with "The
Greatest American Hero" for 20th Century Fox Television followed by
"Championship Ballroom Dancing" and "DanceSport," for NBC Studios,
thinking that audiences would expect more from them. And they did.
