Sundance-bound: Nick Cave's Proposition

Rouge has published two extracts from Nick Cave’s shooting script for The Proposition, "John Hillcoat’s drama about Australia’s violent colonial history. proposition_pearce.jpg"The plot concerns the proposition given (in the first extract) by Captain Stanley (Ray Winstone) to Charlie (Guy Pearce): to free his young brother, Mikey (Richard Wilson), from jail and pardon him of crimes, Charlie must find and kill his older brother, the vicious Arthur (Danny Huston). The second extract, from later in the film, is a scene involving Charlie’s uneasy reintegration into Arthur’s gang." [Cave also wrote an unproduced "Gladiator II"; he talks about it, his music and screenwriting careers here.]
