«I just sat down and banged it out in the spirit of those old Hollywood guys.»
Author: Nick Cave

And then I just reached a revelation that it wasn't just about dance, it wasn't about fine art. It was about these two forces that were important to me, finding a medium that would allow me to investigate both.»

And I always say the sentences out loud as I write them to see how they work rhythmically.»
Author: Nick Cave
«Aw, look, I don't know. I think I'd rather him do that than me.»
Author: Nick Cave
«It was a good script and it was a great story. It was just that it was basically an American western dumped in Australia. When I read it, I thought everyone's been behaving properly. Where's the incompetence, where's the failure?»
Author: Nick Cave
«I guess in all these films, ... there is a sense that morality is a luxury that we can afford in less fraught times, but in extreme situations and extreme environments, morality becomes a very grey issue.»
Author: Nick Cave
«[With a large Aboriginal contingent that proves central to the plot, The Proposition certainly takes an axe to some pieties about Australia's past.] That was the thing that the indigenous actors were really pleased about, ... To be in a film where they got an opportunity to fight back.»
