In a time period that includes the Dust Bowl, Great Depression and Prohibition, Dust builds a story world in the American West that has yet to be tapped. With all the violence and grit of a Western, the sexiness of an Action/Thriller, and the political intrigue of a Drama, this is a character driven franchise with great potential for mental real estate.
I'm fascinated by the ambiguity of morality. This piece, to me, represents just that. Our vices don't make us sinners, they make us human. We regret because we care. We are driven by instinct. We let ego get in the way of our rationality. We're willing to compromise our integrity for success. Life shouldn't be compartmentalized.
