Cut Snake Page #2

Synopsis: Set in Melbourne in the mid-1970s, Cut Snake tells the story of Sparra Farrell (Alex Russell), an ex-convict who is trying to make a new life for himself in a new city. He has found honest work and even becomes engaged but the prospect of this new life is challenged when his foreboding and charismatic cell mate Pommie (Sullivan Stapleton) tracks him down upon his own release. Sparra finds himself enigmatically drawn back toward a world and a man that he was certain he had wanted to leave behind.

Go and get a beer.

Well, where should we take him?

Suppose anywhere that we

can find pretty young ladies

like you, eh?

Hm.

There she is.

She's my best friend.

She's made plans for us tonight.

Hi.

Yvonne, this is James.

Hello, Yvonne.

Oh, hi.

You have enough room, or do

you need me to wriggle over?

That sounds

like an offer.

Let's just see how

we get on first, huh?

Oh, Paula.

I was at Lolly

Point this morning.

They have the cutest little

reception hall there.

Yvonne!

If you're not getting

excited, I will!

Getting married on

me already, darling?

No, silly.

Oh, congratulations,

you sly bugger, eh!

Off the market before I had

the chance to steal her away.

No offense, sweetheart.

Come on, Yvonne.

In a hurry, Jim?

You have no idea, darling.

You know, Yvonne.

She can't keep her mouth shut.

No, she can't.

Thursday nights are

very interesting at this place.

Full of interesting types.

All right.

I'll fit right in then.

Hey, Wayne.

Hey, Yvonne.

Brought some friends.

Sure.

Excuse me.

Sorry, darling.

I told you!

Looks like those

two are getting on.

Yeah.

Oh, welcome to Thursday

night at Blades.

Happy night, if you

know what I mean.

Oh, do we have anyone

from out of town tonight?

Over here!

Oh!

Where from, sweetie?

From Sydney.

Ah.

Sin City, is it?

Ah!

Well, that is some haircut.

When did you get out?

Oh, I'm just joking.

Can't a girl make a joke?

So what's your name, soldier?

James.

Well, James.

Big Jim, you in town for

business, or pleasure?

Wait.

Don't tell me.

I can feel a bit of

your pleasure right now!

Some ice for the young man!

We had a plan, eh!

I told you, I'm clean now.

No!

We had a plan!

All right?

And it was you and me,

not you, and me, and her,

and a f***ing house, and

your f***ing broomsticks!

Count me out now.

No!

You made me a promise!

It was another life.

Eh?

What are you doing?

Get out of my way, princess!

Hey!

Hey.

Is he OK?

Yeah, yeah.

He's fine.

Well, where is he?

Just stay.

Just stay.

Here.

What have you done?

I've only got about 30 seconds.

Come on!

Hey, missus.

We're all right to push off?

Hey, Pom's not

feeling very well,

do you mind if we head off?

Come on.

But what about Yvonne?

Please?

Please?

OK.

Bye, then.

What the

f*** did you do?

What's it look like?

Are you insane?

They know Yvonne.

Did you forget how easy it is?

Beats making broomsticks.

I want you gone.

No, you don't.

Yeah, I do.

I'm not coming back

inside for your sh*t.

Go, or I'll make you.

You can try, young Sparra.

Oh, sorry.

Just seeing if you had

everything you needed.

Yeah.

You're right.

Mind that , missus.

Yeah.

Thanks.

Thanks!
