This Western was written twenty two years ago today oddly. It gained a fair bit of interest as I wrote it for De Niro and Hugh Grant, pitching it as a Lethal Weapon meets Unforgiven. The pair always wanted to work with one another, (another story), and it got to his Tribeca company who enjoyed, though other, more important matters were occurring in his life to take on a big western. Title: Cigarettes & Horses. Genre: Western A former Yankee soldier teams up with an English writer to retain some stolen artefacts, discovering the thief to be a Confederate from the Yankee's violent past.
